A person who has been selected as Post Office Inspector in 2006 (6th Pay Commission ) will be receiving lesser pay as against the person who has failed or not opted for the Postal Inspector Post after implementation of 7th Pay commission  Promotional loss are seen for officials promoted from 2800/- grade pay to 4200/- grade up to 01.07.2017..
