 1     "...If the competent authority is of the view that there are no instructions which grant benefits of promotion from back date or the benefits can accrue only from the date of joining, he is sadly mistaken. During the period in question the petitioner held the officiatingcharge of the post of Principal. It is a priori that once the Government has already granted the promotion substantively w.e.f June 2, 2014 then the pay of the petitioner in the regular pay scale of the post of Principal has to be fixed from June 2, 2014 and not from the actual date of the promotion order and accordingly, the last pay certificate is required to be drawn in the promotional pay scale of the higher post. Therefore, the first two bullets in the letter dated May 27, 2015 suffer from patent errors in reasoning and deserve to be set aside and the path restored to justice.

xx xx xx The petitioner would also be entitled to difference of arrears of salary for discharging full duties and responsibilities of the post of Principal from June 2, 2014 till he was actually promoted vide order dated April 22, 2015 retrospectively from June 2, 2014 in view of the law in Smt.

%& # the instant writ petition is allowed. The impugned order dated 16.5.2019 (Annexure P/8) is set aside. A direction is issued to the respondents to refix the pay and allowances of the petitioner w.e.f, 01.02.20212 in terms of the promotion order with all consequential benefits. Fresh orders be passed within one month from date of supply of this order and the monetary benefits be calculated and paid within the next one month.
