As per the Standing Orders of my Company, some of the major penalties of a misconduct do not have a time period. For Ex. Stoppage of "one" Increment or "Stoppage of N (nos.) of increment or Reduction to a lower grade or post or lower stage in a timescale.
The promotion policy states that for the purpose of promotion, the employee should not be under any disciplinary enquiry proceeding under him or under punishment within the last one year. However, when a chargesheeted employee is found guilty and punished by say "Stoppage of one increment" does it imply that the period is one year, since the punishment is immediate and without a time-frame ?
