The Probationary Officer (PO) is placed in the Junior Management Grade Scale-I (JMGS-I) in Public Sector Banks, with a revised basic pay as per the latest Bipartite Settlement.

  • Pay Level: Junior Management Grade Scale-I (JMGS-I).
  • Starting Basic Pay (Approximate): ₹48,480/- (as per the latest Bipartite Settlement, subject to official notification).
  • Major Allowances (Variable):
Dearness Allowance (DA): Revised quarterly, based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
House Rent Allowance (HRA): Varies based on the place of posting (X, Y, or Z category cities), typically ranging from 7% to 9% of Basic Pay.
City Compensatory Allowance (CCA): Varies by city, granted in X and Y category cities.
Special Allowance (SA): A fixed percentage of the Basic Pay.
