(6).Where a Sailor is in receipt of Personal Pay immediately before the date of notification of these regulations, which together with his existing emoluments exceed the revised emoluments, then the difference representing such excess shall be allowed to such a Sailor as Personal Pay, to be absorbed in future increase in Pay.
(7).In case of Sailors who are in receipt of Personal Pay for passing Hindi Pragya, Hindi Typewriting, Hindi shorthand and such other examinations under the “Hindi Teaching Scheme” or on successfully undergoing training in cash and accounts matters prior to – January, 2016, while the Personal Pay shall not be taken into account for purposes of fixation of initial pay in the revised pay structure, they shall continue to draw Personal Pay after fixation of their pay in the revised pay structure on and from the – day of January 2016 or subsequently for the period for which they would have drawn it but for the fixation of their pay in the revised pay structure and the quantum of such Personal Pay would be paid at the appropriate rate of increment in the revised pay structure from the date of fixation of pay for the period for which they would have continued to draw it.
Explanation.– For the purpose of this sub-rule, “appropriate rate of increment in the revised pay structure” means the difference with respect to the next immediate higher Cell in the applicable Level of the Pay Matrix, from the stage at which the pay of the Sailor is fixed in the revised pay structure.Also Read: Level of Ranks in the pay matrix for Navy PBORs

(a)both the junior and senior Sailors belong to the same group or branch and the rank to which they have been promoted are identical in the same group or branch.
(b)the existing grade pay and the revised Level in the Pay Matrix of the lower and higher ranks in which they are entitled to draw pay are identical.
(c)the senior Sailor at the time of promotion is drawing equal or more pay than the junior.

(ii) The senior Sailor shall be entitled to the next increment on completion of his required qualifying service with effect from the date of re-fixation of pay.
