MACP Calculator
Under the Modified Assured Career Progression scheme, a central government employee who is not promoted gets a financial upgradation after 10, 20 and 30 years of service. This shows which are due and when the next one falls.
How to use this calculator
- Enter the date you joined service.
- Enter how many regular promotions you have had.
- Optionally choose your pay level now, to see the level an upgradation takes you to.
- Choose the date to check on, and calculate.
How it is calculated
Each of the milestones at 10, 20 and 30 years brings one upgradation. Regular promotions count against them, so the upgradations due are the milestones passed less promotions taken.
An upgradation moves you to the next level in the pay matrix — Level 13 goes to 13A — which is not always the level of the next promotional post.
A promotion can also change when the next upgradation falls due. Your office applies the scheme to your own service record, so treat the dates as the milestones, not a promise.
Worked example
Joined on 1 September 2008 with one promotion, checked on 1 August 2026: the result shows the milestones passed and when the next upgradation falls due.
