Indian Forest Service (Pay) Fifth Amendment Rules, 2000 – Notification

I

Important changes have been introduced for members of the Indian Forest Service, effective upon publication in the Official Gazette. These new rules, known as the Indian Forest Service (Pay) Fifth Amendment Rules, 2000, modify the existing 1968 pay regulations. The update primarily revises the pay scales and introduces specific Central (Deputation on Tenure) Allowances for various key positions under the Central Government. For instance, top roles like Secretaries, Additional Secretaries, and Joint Secretaries to the Government of India will now have fixed or revised scales, with no deputation allowance. However, other significant positions such as Director, Deputy Secretary, Director General of Forests, Chief Conservator of Forests, and various Inspector General roles (including those for Project Tiger and Project Elephant) will see new pay structures, often accompanied by a fifteen percent deputation allowance, subject to a maximum of one thousand rupees per mensem, or eight hundred rupees per mensem for certain lower administrative grades. Crucially, a condition specifies that the combined pay and deputation allowance must not exceed the maximum of the designated pay scale. Furthermore, the Central (Deputation on Tenure) Allowance is strictly applicable only during the prescribed normal tenure of deputation.
