(ii) Re-exercise of option to switch over to the Revised pay structure (V1th CPC):-
On the issue of permission for re-exercise of option. it is clarified that since the issue of change in option is not covered in the OM No. F-2-l/2015-EIIIA dated 16.l0.2015 issued by the M/o Finance as such the question of admissibility of fresh option does not arise and moreover, since the benefit given in the OM dated 16/10/2015 was special dispensation. It may not be appropriate to consider any further dispensation.
