We have to-day sent our communication to IBA seeking revision in the ceiling of Festival Advance. A copy of our communication is enclosed.

Dear Sir,
ENHANCEMENT OF CEILING ON FESTIVAL ADVANCE

The Officers are eligible for Festival Advance once in a year as per their choice of Festival. The ceiling on Festival Advance is being prescribed by the Indian Banks’ Association at periodical intervals at the request of the Confederation.
2. We have been receiving a number of representations from the various parts of the country from the Officers’ fraternity, that the current ceiling will have to be revised and hence needs a review by the Indian Banks’ Association. The Executive Committee of the Confederation which met at Mumbai on 30th and 31st July, 2010 also had an occasion to deliberate on the issues that are to be sorted out between the IBA and the Confederation. The Committee was unanimous that the issue of enhancement of Festival Advance is one such issue requiring immediate solution from the IBA. We suggest to link the festival advance equal to two months Basic pay, repayable in 10 monthly installments. We therefore request you to kindly look into the matter and take necessary steps for the enhancement of the Festival Advance as suggested by us.

3. Please treat the matter as urgent.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

(G.D.NADAF)
GENERAL SECRETARY
