What This Means
This para specifies the correct accounting heads for crediting leave salary and pension contributions from foreign service. When recovered together, contributions go under head '0071 - Contributions and Recoveries towards Pension and Other Retirement Benefits'. When recovered separately, pension contributions go to the same head '0071', while leave salary contributions are credited to the receipt head corresponding to the establishment's functional head. It also covers the procedure when a government servant is permanently absorbed into a Public Sector Undertaking: the parent department pays a lump-sum amount equal to earned leave salary at credit, forfeiting half pay leave, and the payment is debited to the head where leave salary would normally be charged.

- 2When recovered separately, pension goes to '0071' and leave salary goes to the receipt head corresponding to the functional head of the establishment
- 3Penal interest on arrears is credited to the same head as the contributions themselves
- 4On permanent absorption to a PSU, earned leave at credit is paid as a lump sum; half pay leave stands forfeited

Practical Example
A Deputy Director from the Ministry of Agriculture is permanently absorbed into the Food Corporation of India (a PSU). The Head of Office calculates 180 days of earned leave at his credit and works out the corresponding leave salary amount of Rs 4,50,000. He confirms with the PAO that all foreign service contributions are up to date. The PAO issues a cheque for the lump-sum leave salary (after deducting any unrealized contributions), debiting it to the same head of account where the officer's leave salary would have been charged. The employee's half pay leave balance of 120 days stands forfeited.
