  1. I have promoted to the post of cost accountant (BS-18) as a result of the creation of the separate cadre along with other officers. Since I have acquired the ACMA qualification in the year 2008 while other officers who are in my cadre but does not posses this ICMAP qualification.

    I have joined as Senior Auditor (BS-16), on regular basis in FBR, Govt. of Pakistan. The required degree for that post was Masters/Post graduate degree in various subjects. At that time i.e before appointment I have M.Sc (Hons) degree from Agriculture University. After appointment the HEC (UGC), Islamabad issue me a equivalence certificate M.Sc(Hons) from any Agri. University equal to M.Phil.
    Now my question is that weather I am eligible for advance increments? Plz advice.

  24. I acquired higher qualification viz. BA and LLB in the year 1993 and 1995 respectively. At that point of time I was working in pay scale 7 but i did not apply for advance increments. In the year 1997 I was appointed in pay scale 17. Even if the advance increments would have been allowed in the year 1995 it would certainly have been merged in the pay of scale 17 without giving me any benefit. Can I obtain advance increments from the 1997 instead of 1993 and 1995.
