Download>>>> ICAR Scientist Pay Calculator >> Due to ambiguity in notifications, pay calculator may not give exact amounts of arrears. However, there are several options available in the calculator. It will calculate most of the things accurately even then it is not guaranteed that there will not be errors. hence, you can download it and compare the results with manual calculations or other calculators. File size is approx. 0.7 MB.This is modified version of earlier Pay Calculators uploaded for UGC pay calculations. Just have fun and don't blame me for inaccuracies as presently I don't have time to spare for working on it.
Pay Fixation of ICAR Scientists:
Pay in the revised scales is to be fixed as per provisions of CCS (RP) Rules, 2008.
In absence of Fitment tables, the following guidelines are to be followed:
i) Pay of Scientists in 8000-13500 scale to be provisionally fixed in PB III as per Fitment Table S-17 dated 30.8. 2008 (though GP is not mentioned by ICAR notification here but it has to be replaced by RGP)
ii) Pay of Scientists in 8000-13500 scale to be fixed provisionally in PB III as per Fitment Table S-19 dated 30.8. 2008 (though GP is not mentioned by ICAR notification here but it has to be replaced by RGP)
iii) Pay of Scientists in 12000-18300 scale or above to be fixed provisionally as follows:
a) The pay in Pay Band/Scale may be determined by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 1.1.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding off the resultant figure to the next multiple of 10
b) If the minimum of the revised Pay band/scale is more than the amount arrived at as per (a) above the pay shall be fixed at the minimum of the revised Pay Band/Pay Scale
After release of Fitment tables, actual amount of arrears for scientists placed in PB IV may be more than that fixed in the above manner, if it happens so, the excess amount will be paid on receipt of Fitment Tables.

Dear Crusador
Your table for ICAR notification pasted above in not appropriate as there is no mention of directly recruited senior scientists, however in the notification at page no. 7 it is clearely mentioned for directly recruited senior scientist between 1.1.06 to 31.12.2008. Next para says PB III with RGP Rs. 8000 for those recruited on or after 1.1.09. kindly correct the same as it is communicating wrong message to directly recruited senior scientists.
with regards
Dr Vadodara, Sr scientists with 3 years and more years of service will get same pay band and same salary as per existing notification.
Dear Dr Radu, I've updated it. However link to notification is provided for those who would like to see the details.
Dear Crusador
In the table i am unable see the updates. kindly see, whether updated.
with regards
Dear Radu, it is in text form.
Dear Crusador
Your fitment tables for ICAR Senior Scientist (3+ year in Rs 12000-18300/) and Principal scientists are wrong. As per ICAR fixation order on Mar 9, they all be fixed at Rs 37400/- in PB4. The rule says if basic x 1.86 = less than Rs 37400/- then it should be fixed at Rs 37400/- else fixed at roundoff amount.
Please correct the tables, it will confuse all the admin officers in various ICAR institutes
Dear Crusador
Please correct the tables. People with basic pay of Rs 13260/-(SS 3+ years) on 1-1-2006 and 19550/(PS) will be fixed at Rs 37400/- on 1-1-2006 with their respective grade pays. While people with basic rs 20000/- (PS) onwards will be fixed at Basic x 1.86 round off amount.
Again my request is to correct the tables before the wrong information is disseminated.
Dear Dr Manoj Khanna, I have revised and updated the tables, please check them and offer your valuable comments if there is any mistake.
Dear Crusador
Thanks for the corrections in tables. I think now they are correct. You are doing a great service to academic community.
Thanks Dr Manoj Khanna
Has bunching in 37400-67000 pay band been done away with for the academic community?
Dear New Teacher, anything about bunching can be confirmed only after release of fitment tables by UGC/MHRD/ICAR.
Dear Crusador,
Thanks for these adhock fittment tables. Please post arrear calculator on the basis of these fittment tables.
Dear Crusador
The tables published in the hub pages of ICAR for the Scientists are acceptable and correct for the Grade Pay of Rs 6,000/- (referred Table S-15, i.e., 15,600 + 6,000 = 21,600/-), Rs. 7,000/- (referred Table S-19, i.e., 18,600 + 7,000 = 25,600/-), Rs. 8,000/- (referred Table S-23, i.e., 22,320 + 8,000 = 30,320/-).
The fixation tables given for Grade Pay of Rs. 9,000/-, Rs. 10,000/- and Rs 12,000/- are incorrect. As per the ICAR Notification the pay fixation has to be in accordance with CPC (RP 2008) dated 30-08-2008. Accordingly, the fitment tables are to be revised by considering for Grade Pay Rs 9,000/- (to be refereed S-24, i.e., 37,400 + 9,000 = 46,400/-), Rs. 10,000/- (to be refereed from the middle of S-29, the Pay in Pay band will be Rs 39,690 + 10,000/- = 49,690/-, since the pre-revised basic salary was Rs 16,400/- or to be refereed S-29, i.e., 44,700/- + 10,000/- = 54,700/- or the minimum of Rs. 43,000/- + 10,000/- = 53,000/- as in the ICAR notification), Rs. 12,000/- (to be refereed S-30, i.e., 51,850 +12,000 = 63,850/-).
The due weightage has to be given for the past service in the form of regularisation of increments as was done for the Grade pay of Rs. 6,000/-, Rs 7,000/- and Rs 8,000/-. The same principle has also adopted by CPC (RP 2008) dated 30-08-2008.
Dear Raju, Provisional pay as per ICAR clarification for pay fixation is to be done as per the tables shown above. It seems you have not yet seen pay fixation circul;ar issued by ICAR. Clarification refers table S-17 and S19 for fixation of pay with6000 and 7000 GP but did not refer S24 or any other table for PB 4. Furthermore, ICAR pay scales have no mention of 12000 RGP.
Mr Crusador you made these tables without any calculation. These are invalid tables especially for PB4.
Dear K P Singh, these tables are made according to ICAR pay fixation guidelines. You are welcome to pinpoint the errors and suggest correct figures.
Dear Mr. Crusader,
I appreciate the work done by you, and the fitment tables prepared by you for provisional fixation of pay of ICAR scientists as per the isuued guidelines are absolutely accurate. Emotion has no place while following a guideline, and people are reacting emotionally. Nobody said that this was the final fixation. This was provisional in absence of fitment tables for those on or above 12000-18300, but still emotions are running high. I once again appreciate your good understanding in the pay fixation. Thanks,
The fixation for the 12000-18300 is absolutely correct. As most of the employee are not working and just taking the salary at their home without work. As I am Sr. Scientist in the scale of 16400- onward, the salary diff between my salary and the salary of my junior should be atleast 25 to 40%.
Thanks Dr Chakraborty and Dr Ramesh.
Delhi University has released fitment tables to readers/L(SG). I have placed these tables above the comment box.
as per recent circular of ICAR, NET is mandatory for post of lecturers in agricultural universities even for those with Ph.D. Hence, MHRD regulation in this regard becomes inoperative. Age of retirement is applicable as per MHRD notification.Furthermore to maintain disparity with sr. Scientist/Scientist(SG), placed in 37400-67000, newly recruited Principal Scientists (with existing qualifications) will be placed in PB IV with minimum pay of Rs 39690 (as per DU table, revised pay in pay band IV of Sr. Scientist (equ. reader or L(SG) at 14940/- comes Rs 39690/-However, directly recruited Principal Scientist on or after 1.1.09, with revised qualification to be notified will be placed in PB IV with minimum pay of rs 43000/-
Dear Crusador
Could you explain me.
As per notification and table shown by you for Principal Scientists who would have retired post 1/1/06 at basic of for example: 21400 on 1/1/06 would get basic fixed at 39810 +RGP of 10000.
Whereas Sr. Scientist who was at basic salary of 13240 would also have 37400 as new basic with RGP of 9000.
My Question is what about the principal scientist who must have got 4-5 increment in 16400 scale to reach 21400 on 1/1/06????????
So in this case the arrears to Sr. Scientist would be higher than that of principal scientist.
Pl explain.
Dear Prashant,
Don't take these tables and notification seriously. These are for provisional pay fixation and arreer payment. Fitment tables will overcome this problem.
Has any Scientist got arrears in any ICAR institute? If yes, please post the name of institute.
Assoc Prof are totally pushed down by UGC revison. Assoc prof are now called practically asst prof with RGP 8000 for first 3 years. this decision would go to world record whwre an employeepushed back to previous scales after revision
I would like to know that how many advance increment will be given for those who have acquired their PhD between 01-01-2006 to 01-09-2008 as in service.
Dear Dr. Crusader,
I am writing here after a long time. I used to open this blogpage as and when possible to read the comments. It seems that the focus is gone and teaching community is somewhat frustrated and tired to see the game played at UGC/MHRD and elsewhere. Any way, I was going through the pay calculator, and it appeared to me that there was serious mistake in calculating increment. Increment has to be 3% of sumtotal of pay in the pay band and GP, but calculation has been made only on pay in the pay band. For example, If basic pay is 37400+9000 as on 1.1.2006, the basic pay on 1.7.2006 should be (37000+0.03*46400)+9000, i.e., 47800. In the pay calculator it is (37400+0.03*37400)+9000, i.e. 47530, and it is wrong. Kindly get it corrected or else give the clarification, please. Else, bunching or not bunching is the main question we are waiting for. God knows when the question will be answered. Thanks,
Thanks Dr Sabyasachi, you are right. I'll correct this mistake at earliest.
Dear Crusador
You have not answered my query.
Could you explain me.
For Principal Scientists who would have retired post 1/1/06 at basic of for example: 21400 on 1/1/06 would get basic fixed at 39810 +RGP of 10000.
Whereas Sr. Scientist who was at basic salary of 13240 would also have 37400 as new basic with RGP of 9000.
My Question is what about the principal scientist who must have got 4-5 increment in 16400 scale to reach 21400 on 1/1/06????????
So in this case the arrears to Sr. Scientist would be higher than that of principal scientist.
Pl explain, where is the increments taken into account which principal scientist must have recieved while he reached 21400 scale from 16400 scale.
Dear Prashant, as I said earlier this is provisional pay fixation. PS would get bunching benefits and their pay would be fixed at a minimum basic say (Rs 43000). Senior Scientist would not get more pay than a PS. If you've seen 6CPC report even if a Sr. Scientist (stagnating) gets more pay than a PS, it wouldn't create anomaly as long as both are in different grades,
The error in Scientific pay calculator pointed out by Dr Sabyasachi has been corrected and Pay calculator for Scientists has been updated. It can be used by others who are getting UGC pay scales as there has been a cell left protected in Pay calculator uploaded for UGC on other hub.
If you have any G.O/NOTIFICATION IN WHICH FOLLOWING SENTANCE IS WRITTEN
"Principal Scientists recruited on or after 1.1.09 with existing qualifications will be placed in Rs 37400-67000 (Minimum Rs 39690)with RGP 10000 ,"
IF SO SEND ME A COPY OF THAT NOTIFICATION

Good effort, Could you please provide pay calculator for Scientists with B.V.Sc degree and getting NPA
Nice discussion :)

Dear all, UGC has released fitment tables for teachers, librarian and physical education teachers. Tables are given in this hub for Sr. Scientists and Scientists (SG). Link is provided to download the complete tables
I have retired during December 2001 as Principal Scientist. Will I ge any benefit of the revised pay scales of ICAR scientists with effect from 1.1.2006
Respected sir ,
The discrimination created after 6th pay commission between scientific staff and technical will harm the research environment. We request the management to look in to this matter. so the harmony may be maintained
Dear Crusador
I has joined as assistant professor (scientist) with M.Tech degree in sept 2006. Am I eligible to get advance increment? and move to scientist (ss) or GP of 7000 after 5 years?
Dear Hiralal, you are eligible to get 2 advance increment and move to next research grade pay after 5 years.
Dear Crusador,
6th pay commission is not implied in my university (AAU). so can you send the letters issued by ICAR which says that I am eligible for advance increments before 1.1.2009. my email id is hiral_modha@in.com
Dear Hiral, ICAR has issued the letter to agricultural universities endorsing the UGC notification. I provided the link for its download but later on i removed the link from this hub. You'll get two advance increments after implementation of 6th pay commission in your university.
I hvae retired in august 1999 as prof of Plant Physiology(Prncipal Scientist grade). How much benifit I will get in pension, what will be my basic pension.
I completed PhD in 2008 and joined ARS in 2008. One of my junior colleague completed PhD in 2007 and joined ARS in 2009. I am getting less salary than my junior colleague. May I know, where I did the mistake?
Dear SK, Supreme court has turned down a petition by Principal Scientists who joined ICAR after completion of Ph.D. and getting less salary than those who completed the degree as in-service candidate. High Court gave decision in the favor of those who joined service after completion of Ph.D. but ICAR has challenged the decision in Supreme Court.
Dear Crusador,
Thanks. But this is highly ridiculous that If now once more I write ARS and become scientist, I will be getting more salary than what I am getting presently. My junior colleagues are getting 5 increments of PhD. I joined ARS one year earlier than them, but I am not given even a single increment for PhD.
Dearr Dr. SK, you have to escalate the matter to the 6PC Anamolies Committee through proper channel. Also you have to explore FR 21, 22 and 27 for your hardship. Please consult some senior person for advice in your Adminitrative office.
I am selected as Associate Professor in 2009 under old pay scales. what will be my basic once the new scales are implemented of ICAR/UGC.
Dino
Dear Crusador,
Thanks for keeping afresh all about 6th pay commission info for ICAR/UGC etc teachers.
As per UGC regulation (23 Sept, 2009) to be published as Gazette Notification and retified by every univ with in 3 months, will you guide me?
A reader to become professor requires 1. Three years as reader with 9000 AGP or
2. As and when he completes Six years on or after 1.1.2006.
Is there any doubt on six years as reader eligibility? Kindly guide accordingly.
