An employee of CPSU was suspended on 20/05/2020. The employee was reinstated on 21/02/2021. Afterward enquiry proceedings started, but not over as of date. The employee has not been granted increment for the year 2021 (date of increment 01st January) on 01/01/2021. The employee was given an increment on 01/01/2022. Working is as follows: Basic pay during 2020 Rs. 90000/-. Increment for 2021 2700. The basic pay of 2021 should be 92700. Increment for the year 2022 2781. Basic pay should be 95481.

But the employee has been given increment only for 2022 and his basic pay has become only 92700 during 2022. The employee says without enquiry being over the CPSU has punished him with loss of one increment with cumulative effect.

Please advise.

Before we comment on it, the applicable rules of the CPSU and the order revoking suspension have to be considered. However, what has been done does not appear to be correct, as already one increment has been withheld with cumulative effect which is impermissible in the present matter and could adversely affect the fate of the disciplinary enquiry.
The Delinquent Employee, it appears has not been granted due increment on 01.01.21 as he was suspended. After the suspension order was lifted and on completion of one year service (excluding the suspension period) the increment ought to have been provided and on 01.01.22 the next increment should have been granted.
Most of the CPSUs have the rule that "Increments are granted as a matter of course unless it is withheld by a specific order." So going by that rule an increment cannot be withheld without a specific order. That is obviously missing in this case.
