     (c) Employees and teachers who got promotion after 26.02.2011 and whose pay have been fixed in the promoted post under option (a) or (b) of Rule 28A Part I KSRs, in the pre revised scale (due to the time limit of one month fixed for exercising option) based on their option.

   3. The above categories of employees will also be given a chance for re-option for 2009 Pay Revision provided they exercise re-option for fixation under Rule 28 A Part I KSRs, as per para 2 above. The permission for re-option for fixation under Rule 28A Part I KSRs, and for Pay Revision 2009 shall be subject to the conditions mentioned below.

   (i) Re-option for fixation on promotion under Rule 28A Part I KSRs/ Pay Revision 2009 shall be exercised within three months from the date of this order. Employees retired on or after 01.07.2009 will also be permitted to exercise re-option.
