Subject:- Modifications in PORD Rules 1981, Post Office Monthly Income Account Rules 1987, POTD Rules 1981, KVP Rules 1988, NSC (VIII-Issue) Rules 1989-regarding.
Sir / Madam,
The undersigned is directed to enclose copies of Min. of Finance (DEA) Notification No. GSR 740(E), GSR 741(E), GSR 742(E), GSR 743(E) and GSR 744(E) dated 04.10.2011 for information and necessary action. Changes made through these notifications are listed below:-
(1) In case of RD accounts opened between 1st Day and 15th Day of a calendar month, the each subsequent deposit in the account shall be made up to 15th day of the next month and incase of RD accounts opened between 16th day and last working day of the calendar month, the each subsequent deposit in the account shall be made up to the end of the next calendar month.
Procedure:- This change should be made applicable from 01.01.2012 to all old as well as new accounts. In the month of January 2012, as and when any depositor/MPKBY agent attends the post office for subsequent deposit, a rubber stamp should be fixed on the cover and first page of the Passbook informing the last date up to which the depositor can deposit his monthly installment in the next month.
Following is the sample of stamps:-
Sample-1
LAST DATE OF DEPOSIT IS 15th DAY OF NEXT MONTH

Sample-2
LAST DATE OF DEPOSIT IS LAST WORKING DAY OF NEXT MONTH
Sample-1 is to be fixed on the passbooks of the accounts opened between 1st and 15th Day of a month and Sample-2 is to be fixed on the passbooks of the accounts opened between 16th day and the last day of a month. Till the software is amended, penalty should be charged as per old procedure i.e if the amount is not deposited up to the last working day of the month.
(2) In case maturity value of a discontinued RD account is retained after the date of maturity, the depositor shall be entitled to a simple interest at the rate applicable from time to time to post office savings account on the amount deposited from the date of maturity till date of payment.
Procedure:- At present, interest at the rate of 9.25% was being paid on such accounts. This amendment will be made applicable from 1.01.2012 to all old as well as new accounts. This calculation is to be made manually till the software is modified. Difference of interest calculated by the software and and interest calculated manually should be noted in the Register to be maintained in manuscript for future reference.
(3) In case of premature closure of RD accounts, simple interest at the rate applicable to post office savings account from time to time shall be payable.
Procedure:- Presently, interest is being calculated by the software by compounding the rate of savings account every year. This shall be applicable to the existing RD accounts also. This calculation shall be made manually from 1.01.2012 till the software is amended. Difference of interest calculated by the software and interest calculated manually should be noted in the Register to be maintained in manuscript for future reference.
(4) In case maturity value of RD Account is retained after 10 years, Post Maturity Interest shall be payable at simple rate of interest applicable from time to time to savings account from date of maturity to date of payment.
Procedure:- This is a new provision which does not exist in the software. This calculation shall be made manually from 1.01.2011 till the software is amended. This will be applicable for existing RD accounts also. Entry of such accounts in which PMI is paid should be made in a register to be maintained in manuscript for PMI for future reference.
(1) Maximum limit of 2 years fixed for admissibility of Post Maturity Interest has been removed.
Procedure:- Now PMI should be paid from the date of maturity to date of payment at the simple interest rate applicable to savings account from time to time. The rate of interest shall be equal to the rate applicable from the date of maturity to the date of payment at different times. For example, if an account was matured on 26.8.2010 and the depositor attends the post office on 15.12.2011, he will be paid PMI at the rate 3.5% from 26.8.2010 to 30.11.2011 and at the rate 4% from 1.12.2011 to 14.12.2011. This shall be applicable to the existing as well as new investments in all schemes. Calculations are to be made manually till software is amended and recorded in the Register to be maintained in manuscript for future reference. Following formula should be adopted while calculating the Post Maturity Interest for the number of days:-
To calculate simple interest for number of days:- MV×R÷100×N÷365.
MV= Maturity Value
R= Rate of interest
N=Number of days the account stands
Note:- While calculating number of days, the day on which account matures shall be counted in number of days but the day on which payment is being taken shall not be counted.
This issues with the approval of DDG(FS)

NATIONAL POSTAL POLICY 2012

Postal Policy 2012 A meeting is likely on the policy to discuss various dimensions with key stakeholders, next month PTI November 14 2011..Share..The government has started the exercise to formulate the new National Postal Policy 2012, in order to rejuvenate and bring the postal sector to the centre stage of economic development.
The Department of Post (DoP) will organise a round-table conference next month to discuss various dimensions of the policy with key stakeholders.
"DoP may complete this (discussion) exercise by April, 2012," Minister of Communications and Information Technology Kapil Sibal said, adding that the agenda of the same should be submitted by November 20.
The government said National Postal Policy (NPP) would have clear goals, defined role of various operators in the sector and regulatory mechanism in place.
"The postal sector is a key information medium that contributes to both the economic and social development. In recent years, the postal market place has grown increasingly competitive, complex and essential," Sibal added.
The minister in his communication to the DoP has indicated that the new policy should be in line with market dynamics and postal sector should contribute to social and economic development of the country.
"A comprehensive policy must be compiled to guide and regulate the development, growth and contribution of this sector over the next five to 10 years," Sibal said.
DoP had earlier come up with a National Postal Policy, which is viewed as 'prototype' of the policy, a senior ministry official said.
The policy was written by couple of postal department officers without consultation with the industry, the official added.
The new policy will be framed in consultation with various stakeholders of the Indian postal sector which will include various players in logistics, courier and e-commerce business."NPP'12 will have clear goals in terms of job creation, potential investment, guidelines for postal services and strategic focus area for the sector," the official said.
With over 1.5 lakh post offices India's Department of Post has the one of the largest postal network in the world.
In order to match the rapid growth of the country, DoP is undergoing various radical changes which includes a proposal to convert over 1.5 lakh post offices across the nation into full-fledged banks on the anvil.
The post offices currently offer financial services like savings bank, postal life insurance, pension payments and money transfer services

News from CHQ : Meeting with CGM (PLI)

Based on our request, the CGM (PLI) invited for a meeting on 21.11.2011 at 11.30 hours. Com. K. V. Sridharan, General Secretary & Com. Balwinder Singh Financial Secretary attended the meeting. The following are the outcome after discussion.

1. Decentralisation of PLI/RPLI at divisional level

At the outset we recorded our apprehension that the decentralization of PLI/RPLI should not result to the similar fate of RD/MIS decentralization now ended in chaos as the decentralization was made without providing proper infrastructure, staff etc. The following are further discussions and decisions on the subject.
All the divisional offices have been supplied with one computer one UPS and one Printer exclusively for the PLI/RPLI work from the PLI funds recently. The Staff side’s demand to provide minimum three computers exclusively for this purpose will be considered by consulting the technology division of the Directorate. Meantime, the requirement will be called for from the circles.
All the D.O staff and supervisory staff will be imparted adequate training on PLI functions as requested by the staff side.
The claim cases, discontinued policies etc will be dealt only at RO/Circle level. In respect of other regular sanctions on maturity and also for loan and revival cases necessary safety software have been provided.
All Circle heads will be addressed to provide adequate arrangements to keep the records intact either in the divisional office or any one of the departmental building in case if sufficient accommodation at D.O is not available. Our concern that what happened at the time RD/MIS decentralization in respect of SB3cards & other records should not be repeated was well taken note of.

2. Man Power & Compensation

Creation of adequate staff to deal the works will be considered. Diversion of surplus staff will also be considered.
The staff side demand to convert the present honorarium with annual ceiling of Rs. 4000/- as incentive without ceiling has been accepted. It was assured to cause orders at the earliest.
The staff earlier drafted from the divisions to manage the PLI/RPLI work to circle office will be returned back to their home divisions.
Incentive for the work performed by Accounts branch staff for PLI/RPLI schedule preparation will be decided shortly.

3. Honorarium/Incentives to Field staff and GDS

We explained the delay in payment of incentive bill to GDS for procurement of RPLI and lengthy procedure being adopted in each division on verification of bills. The CGM immediately pointed out that orders have already been issued for simplification of procedure for sanction of incentive to all including GDS.
1. All Staff including GDS will be allotted a specific code number to each category of PLI/RPLI. Required software is already dispatched and it should be maintained at divisional level.
2. The incentive amount has been enhanced for RPLI business procured on or after 1.10.2009 by the divisional head @ of 10% of first year premium income and 2.5% of premium income subsequently. The incentive shall be paid on monthly or quarterly basis. There is no need to prepare any bill. The payment shall be made automatically by the divisional head.
We reacted that in no circle, automatic payment of incentive is being made as per our notice. The CGM informed that 42008 departmental employees and 48621 GDS officials have registered under the system.
Finally it is agreed to issue reminders to all circle heads to first register the code and effect payment of incentive automatically to the concerned SPM/BPM. A time frame for the extension will be decided.
It is most pertinent to mention that the RPLI incentive has been raised to three folds and this is not being implemented in many circles.
All Branch/Divisional/Circle Secretaries are requested to ensure registration of code number and automatic payment of incentives to GDs brethrens and other comrades.
The CGM assured that he will immediately initiate action through Secretary’s video conferencing to complete the process at the quickest possible time.
We demanded that the enhancement of free business from 4 crores to 9 crores for D.O PLI be revised for which there is no agreement. The CGM replied that it is based on the inflation which is inevitable.

4. Other Issues
i) We brought the discrimination in the maximum limit of PLI policy to physically challenged officials. The CGM replied that has been clarified vide Gazette notification dt. 27.05.2011 and enhanced the limit to Rs. 10 lakhs. After hearing the practical problems, the CGM assured to send one clarification to all circle heads and give the address and e-mail address of the consulting Actuary, Delhi for deciding the premium for such cases.
ii) It is told that the demand of providing more bonus or lesser premium to staff for their own PLI policies could not be possible as per the existing scheme unless we launch a separate scheme with lesser bonus for lesser premium.
Iii) We pointed out about non receipt of circulars from PLI Directorates since 2008. It was instructed to note down all the recognized unions in the mailing list for supply of PLI/RPLI circulars.
We recorded our thanks to Sri. Shekar K. Sinha, Chief General Manager, PLI Directorate for arranging such a meeting and discussed all the issues put forth by us over two hours.
