Provided that
(i) if the amount of the existing emoluments increased under clause (a) is less than the minimum of the Revised Scales of Pay, 2015, the pay shall be fixed at the minimum of that scale;
(ii) if the amount of the existing emoluments increased under clause (a) is more than the maximum of the Revised Scales of Pay, 2015, the pay shall be fixed at the maximum of that scale, the difference shall be treated as Personal Pay to be absorbed in future rises in pay. If it could not be absorbed, it shall be paid till the date of cessation of duties.

(i) based on the actual pay drawn by him on the date of entry into the Revised Scales of Pay, 2015; and
