To

The Chairman & Managing Director,

MTNL,

NEW DELHI.

Respected sir,

            Sub:- Board level and below Board level executives and

                     Non Unionised Supervisors in Central Public Sector Enterprises

                     (CPSESs) – revision of scales of pay w.e.f. 01.01.2007.

            Ref:-  Letter No.2(70)/08-DPE (WC) dated 26.11.2008  of Government of India,

                      Ministry of Heavy Industries & Public Enterprises, Deptt. of Public

                      Enterprises, New Delhi.

            This is with reference to the implementation of Presidential Directive on the recommendations of 2^nd Pay Revision Committee vide reference cited above.

            It is understood that MTNL Board has taken on record  the notification for its implementation.  Management may be aware that uniform fitment benefit @ 30%  of basic pay + DA at 68.8% as on 01.01.2007 would have to be provided to Executives.  The recommendations would be adopted subject to the conditions that the additional outgo by such revision for a period of 12 months should not result in more than 20% dip in Profit Before Tax (PBT) for the year 2007-08 in respect of Executives and Non Unionised Supervisory staff taken together.  PBT of MTNL for the year 2007-08 is Rs.6316.49 million.  20% of the above works out to Rs.1263.30 million.

            In MTNL, there are no Non Unionised Supervisory cadres.  The additional outgo consequent to implementation of the above recommendations to Executivesfor a period of 12 months with 30% fitment is not expected to be more than Rs.460 million.

           It is pertinent to point out that MTNL Management has implemented the recommendations of 6^th Pay Commission with 40% increase in salaries for the Officers and Staff on deemed deputation.  The arrears due to them from 01.01.2006 have also been paid.

            Under the above circumstances, we request MTNL Management to implement the recommendations of 2^nd Pay Revision Committee with 30% fitment from 01.01.2007 and issue orders for the same very early.

            We expect positive and favorable response from the Management of Navratna PSU.

            With regards,

Yours sincerely,

Sd/-
