  3. nadia

    I’ve a question. does an employee get the ordinary daily on his or her transfer? as per my knowledge, only travelling allowance, luggage allowance and one month basic pay is allowed

    • On transfer he/she gets all the above, however on retirement TA/DA no daily is allowed to the retired employees.

  4. Riaz ullah

    what is rule for additional Pol charges for special duty/training etc please.

  5. Saqib Mehmood

    if an employee transfer twice in the month from one district to another district, is he/she eligible for transfer grant twice or otherwise?

    • I am not sure, but if the employee joined the other station and shifted his/her family and then once again did so then he should be given TA/DA and transfer grant. However I ll verify the same soon IA.

    Daily Allowance

    Family members above the age of 12 years will get the full Daily and the Children below 12 years age will get half daily in Transfer TA.

    Please send/attach the proof/ Notification of the above.
    Some people say that Daily Allowance admissible is only Half Daily on transfer (e.g., if we travel from Lahore to Sargodha, we will reach in 4 hours, and hence only half daily is admissible). Please explain
