Attention is invited to Board's letter of even no. dated 07.07.2023 whereby Railway officers/staff on deputation to DFCCIL have been permitted to retain their Railway accommodation at previous place of posting up to 30.06.2024.

Now, on consideration of a request received from DFCCIL and in exercise of the powers vested in it to make reasonable relaxations in public interest for a class/group of employees in all or any of the provisions regarding house allotment/retention, the Full Board have decided that Railway officers/staff on deputation to DFCCIL may be permitted to retain their railway accommodation at previous place of posting for a further period of one year beyond 30.06.2024 i.e. up to 30.06.2025 subject to the condition that DFCCIL would provide leased accommodation to the officers of concerned Railways, for all houses retained by DFCCIL, as per officer's choice according to Railway priority list, at the rate of lease entitlement for corresponding grade of officers of DFCCIL. However, if leased accommodation is not being utilized by the Railways, an amount equivalent to leased accommodation or HRA of the officer retaining the accommodation, whichever is higher, may be deposited with concerned Zonal Railway by DFCCIL.
