Check of Pay Fixation 3.2.11 In cases where the Accountant General (A&E) is responsible for the discharging functions relating to entitlements of gazetted officers, their pay is fixed by his office on first appointment or on appointment to a new post on a different scale of pay or when the scale of pay of the posts held by the officers is revised. In other cases, pay fixation in similar circumstances is done by the Head of the Office or by the Accounts Officers concerned in departments having separated Accounts organisations. It should be verified in audit that pay fixation in the latter cases has been done correctly in accordance with the rules applicable in each case.

Note: In cases where pay is fixed by the separated accounts organization, the efficiency of the internal audit units will also be examined.
