The promotions made from 1-11-1956 were to be reviewed under section 4(1) of the Act on the basis of the Final I.S.S. Lists published in accordance with the decisions of the Government of India. While so reviewing the promotions it was noticed that some officers who were promoted earlier on the basis of their positions in the provisional I.S.S. Lists were eligible for promotion on dates later than the dates of their actual promotion. This would mean that the earlier promotion was fortuitous and the pay was therefore required to be revised. There was no provision in the Act for regulation of pay in such cases. It was considered necessary to make a provision in the Act providing for refixation of pay in respect of such officers on the dates of eligibility.
