The MACP Scheme for Central Civilian Clarification Government Employees is in
supersession of earlier ACP Scheme . Under the MACP Scheme three financial Up-gradations are allowed on completion of 10, 20. 30 years of regular service, counted from the direct entry grade.
The MACPS envisages merely placement in the immediate next higher grade pay as given in Section I, Part -A of the first schedule of the CCS ( Revised Pay) Rules 2008, in case no I ( promotion has been earned by the employee 1 during this period.
The financial upgradation would be on non- 1 functional basis subject to fitness in the
hierarchy of pay band and grade pay within PB-
1. Thereafter, only the benchmark of 'Good' would be applicable till the grade pay of Rs.6600 In PB-3. The benchmark will be 'Very Good' for Financial upgradation to the grade pay of Rs.7600 and above. However, where the Financial upgradation under the MACPS also happen to be in the promotional grade and benchmark for promotion is lower than the benchmark for granting the benefits under MACPS as mentioned in para 17 of the Scheme, the benchmark for promotion shall apply to MACP also.
