WB ROPA 2019 Pay Level 10C 2nd Revision
West Bengal Finance Department has issued a memorandum today on 11th July 2022 on the contents of Pay Level 10C under the Pay Matrix Table of ROPA 2019. The government has decided to replace the existing content of WB ROPA 2019 Pay Level 10C once again. An employee would get his pay fixed at a lower amount in WB ROPA 2019 Pay Level 10C than in Level 10 after promotion from Level 9. The post in Pay Level10C is higher than the post in Level10.
Modification has been made in pay level 10C under West Bengal ROPA 2019 to eliminate discrepancies between Pay Level 10C and Level 10. Now the initial (starting) pay of the level 10C becomes 42,300 as compared to 40800.
The previous changes made in this level as per order number 2426-F(P1) dated 13.06.2022 has brought certain difficulties while refixing the pay of some employees on promotion. Now the latest modification made in WB ROPA 2019 Pay Level 10C in order number 2830-F(P1) dated 11.07.2022 is believed to overcome such difficulties.
