Dear MPPK: Agreed that Punishment No.2 would affect the increment due on 01.01.17. The impact of the three punishments could be as follows:
Date Basic Pay Remarks
30.11.15 36160 Before Punishment- Would have earned Rs. 37250 w.e.f. 01.01.16, 38370 w.e.f 01.01.17 & 39520 w.e.f. 01.01.18 and so on
01.12.15 35120 Impact of punishment No.1
01.01.16 35120 Normal date of increment, but not drawn due to punishment no.1
25.10.16 35120 Punishment no.2 imposed but cannot be implemented till punishment no.1 is over as no increment accrues in the meanwhile
01.01.17 35120 Normal date of increment (No.1), but not drawn due to punishment no.1
03.03.17 32120 Impact of Punishment no.3, is with immediate effect & it takes precedence over punishment no.2
02.03.20 to)
03.03.20 ) 35120 Punishment No.3 is over and punishment no.2 resumes
01.01.21 35120 No increment drawn, 2nd increment withheld as per punishment no.2
01.01.22 37250 All punishments over
The principle is that while reduction is with immediate effect and the impact is felt from the date of issue of order, the withholding of increment is with future effect and comes into play only when the increment accrues

I think the Penalty 2 should also be concurrently imposed. If so, the Pay of the C.O. should be as under:-
01.12.2015 to 01.01.2017 - Rs.35,120/- (Penalty 1 in effect & Penalty 2 comes into effect from 01.01.2017)
03.03.2017 to 30.11.2017 - Rs.32,120/- (Penalty 1&2 in effect & Penalty 2 comes into effect from 03.03.2017)
01.12.2017 to 02.03.2020 - Rs.35,120/- (Completion of Penalty 1&2 w.e.f. 01.12.2017 & 01.01.2019 respectively)
03.03.2020 to 31.12.2020 - Rs.36,180/- (Completion of Penalty 3)
What is your thought on this?

Dear MPPK: Upto 01.12.17 there is no difference in pay fixation. If as on 01.12.17 the basic pay is enhanced to Rs. 35120 , that means he has been restored three increments which I think would not be in line with Punishment No.3. This order specifies reduction by three stages in the time scale of pay for three years (i.e from Rs. 35120 to Rs. 32120) and he will not earn increment of pay during the period of penalty (so no addition) and on expiry of penalty period, the reduction will have effect of postponing the future increment of his pay . So till the expiry of the three year period i.e. upto 02.03.20 he has to remain at 32120 and thereafter will come back to the pre-reduction basic pay (Rs.35120) . Moreover, the punishment orders are not specifying that they will run concurrently, so as has not served the 2nd punishment in full while the third punishment is imposed, he has to serve the remaining period of punishment no.2 (i.e., from 03.03.20 to 31.12.20 at Rs. 35120/)

Dear Friend,
You have not mentioned the cadre of the employee, you have also not mentioned as to how and why these many number of punishment has been awarded.
Is he a workmen or management staff.
To me the whole case appears to be dicey without complete information. If oit is challenged in the court of law, it will not stand the scrutiny.
