Note 4.-
The classification of a re-employed pensioner for purposes of Travelling Allowances will be determined on the following basis –
(a) Where the pension is held in abeyance during the period of re¬employment, the grade of the re-employed pensioner shall be determined, in accordance with the pay actually received from time to time.
(b) Where a pension is allowed to be drawn in addition to pay, the re¬employed pensioner should be deemed to be in receipt of actual pay equivalent to his re-employed pay plus pension, subject to the proviso that if the sum of such pay plus pension exceeds the pay of the post if it is on a fixed rate of pay or the maximum pay of the post, if it is on a time-scale of pay, such excess shall be ignored.
(c) If a portion of the pension has been commuted, the amount of pension to be taken into account for the purpose of clause (b) will be the amount including the pensionary equivalent of the commuted value. The amount of pension to be taken into account will also include the pension equivalent of the death-cum-retirement gratuity, if any.
Note 5.-

But such claims for arrears of T.A will be paid by the Treasury Officers only after special audit by the Accountant General.
Government Decision No. 3
*It is clarified that the above Decision No. 2 is applicable to all cases of belated issue of pay slips, when the delay in issue of pay slips is not due to any fault of the officer, i.e., it is only when increments are delayed on account of specific orders of competent authorities that the benefit contemplated in the above decision shall be denied.
SECTION II
GENERAL
5. The following are the different kinds of Travelling Allowances which may be drawn in different circumstances by officers:¬
(a) Permanent Travelling Allowance(b) Conveyance Allowance(c) Mileage Allowance(d) Daily Allowance(e) Actual Travelling Expenses.

| AC യില്‍ MD, PERMANENT ആയി യാത്ര ചെയ്യുന്നു. |
A = Actual Travelling Expenses. |
C = Conveyance Allowance |
M = Mileage Allowance |
D = Daily Allowance |
P = Permanent Travelling Allowance |
The Rules in this Chapter explain the nature of these allowances and the method of calculating them. The circumstances, in which they may be drawn for particular journeys, are described in Chapters II to IV.
Government Decision No. 1
The expressions ‘road mileage’ and ‘mileage allowance’ wherever they occur shall be assigned meaning as referring to distance in kilometres.
Government Decision No. 2
An Officer of Government required to attend meetings of the Board of Directors or Committees of an Industrial Concern or a Bank or a Joint Stock Company on behalf of Government shall receive T.A. and D.A. from Government according to rules. The officer should credit the entire T.A. and sitting fee paid by the Industrial Concern or Bank to the receipt head corresponding to the head of account to which his T.A. is debited. He will also forward to the Accountant General in advance a statement of T.A. and sitting fee to which he is entitled for attending such meetings in a month so as to enable the Accountant General to watch recovery. The practice of crediting to Government the T.A. received from the University of Kerala according to its rules and receiving T.A. according to State T.A. rules as laid down in G.O. (Ms.) 330/59/Fin., dated 29th June 1959 will be discontinued from 1st August 1960 in respect of Government officers travelling on University business and instead they will be allowed to receive T.A. direct from the University according to its rules.
************************
5A. The right of a Government servant to Travelling Allowance including daily allowance shall be forfeited or deemed to have been relinquished if the claim for it is not preferred to the drawing officer or controlling officer within one year from the date on which it fell due.
SECTION III
PERMANENT TRAVELLING ALLOWANCE
[PTA]
6. A permanent monthly Travelling Allowance may be granted by Government to any officer whose duties require him to travel extensively(=ബൃഹത്തായ). Such an allowance is granted in lieu of all other forms of Travelling Allowance for journeys within the officer’s sphere of duty and is drawn all the year round, whether the officer is absent from his headquarters or not.
Government Decision No. 1
Since Permanent Travelling Allowance is fixed at a monthly rate it is not necessary that the officer should be on tour beyond 8 kilometres from headquarters on all days of the month. Even for days he is not on tour outside 8 kilometres from headquarters he can draw Permanent Travelling Allowance. This does not however mean that Permanent Travelling Allowance can be drawn without leaving headquarters on any day of the month. The drawal of the allowance will be governed by the order fixing the rate of Permanent Travelling Allowance and prescribing the terms and conditions for its drawal. For the drawal of full amount of Permanent Travelling Allowance an officer should be on tour outside 8 kilometres from headquarters for 15 days in a month and should spend at least 6 hours outside headquarters on each such day. If the minimum number of days of travel is not performed reduction has to be made as per the terms and conditions of the Permanent Travelling Allowance
This decision shall be deemed to have come into force with effect from 9th December 1970.
Government Decision No. 2
The following procedure will be followed for drawal of P.T.A in cases where an officer is on duty for a part of a month and also in cases where the officer has been on duty for the whole month but has not toured for the minimum number of days prescribed :¬
(a) If an officer is on duty for a part of a month he will be allowed proportionate P.T.A. for the days he is on duty provided that the officer is on tour for the proportionate number of days with reference to the minimum days of tour prescribed.
(b) For every day short toured, a deduction of will ( I x PTA) / Y be made where Y is the minimum number of days of tour prescribed.
Example.-Suppose an officer whose P.T.A. is 40 per mensem, and whose minimum period of touring is fixed as 20 days per month, is on duty only for 20 days in a month of 30 days. He is entitled to a P.T.A. of (20 x 40)/30 = 26.67 provided, he puts in not less than the proportionate number of tour days, i.e., (20 x 20)/30 = 13 days. For every day short toured by him a deduction of 1/20 of 40 will be made (i.e., if he tours only for 12 days, an amount of 2 will be deducted from 26.67).
(c) In cases where the officer is on duty for the whole month but has not toured for the minimum number of days prescribed, a deduction of (X x P.T.A) / Y will be made where X and Y are the shortfall in the number of days of tour and the minimum number of days of tour prescribed in a month respectively.
Example.-Suppose an officer whose P.T.A is 40 per mensem and whose minimum number of tour days is fixed as 20 per month, is on duty for the whole month and tours only for 15 days, a deduction of 5 x 40/20 = 10 is to be made from his P.T.A. of 40 per mensem.
Effective from 8th June 1962.
7. A Permanent Travelling Allowance may not be drawn during leave, temporary transfer or joining time, or unless in any case, it be otherwise expressly provided in these rules, during any period for which Travelling Allowance of any other kind is drawn.
8. When an officer holds, either substantively or in an officiating capacity, two or more posts to each of which a Permanent Travelling Allowance is attached, he may be granted such Permanent Travelling Allowance, not exceeding the total of all the allowances, as the Government may consider to be necessary in order to cover the travelling expenses which he has to incur.
SECTION IV
CONVEYANCE ALLOWANCE
9. [The Government may grant, on such conditions as they think fit to impose, a monthly conveyance allowance to any officer who is required to travel extensively or within a specified area from his headquarters under conditions which do not render him eligible for daily allowance.
Note.- Every recommendation made to Government for the grant of a conveyance allowance should contain detailed information regarding the nature of the officers work, the approximate area of the locality within which the conveyance is to be used and the approximate average amount of travelling which the officer has to perform in a day.
10. Except as otherwise provided in these rules and unless the Government otherwise direct, a conveyance allowance drawn all the year round, is not forfeited during absence from Headquarters and may be drawn in addition to any other travelling allowance admissible under the rules provided that an officer, who is in receipt of a conveyance allowance shall not draw mileage allowance/ daily allowance for a journey within their specified area/ jurisdiction or within 8km, from time to time on such condition as the Government may prescribe.
11. A conveyance allowance shall not be drawn during leave or temporary transfer/ holidays prefixed or suffixed to leave and during joining time.
SECTION V
MILEAGE ALLOWANCE
SUB - SECTION I
General
12. A mileage allowance is an allowance, calculated on the distance travelled which is given to meet the cost of a particular journey.
13.(a) For the purpose of calculating mileage allowance, a journey between two places is held to have been performed by the shortest of two or more practicable routes or by the cheapest of such routes as may be equally short; provided that when there are alternative railway routes and the difference between them in point of time and cost is not great, mileage allowance may be calculated on the route actually used.
(b) The shortest route is that by which a traveller can most speedily reach his destination by the ordinary modes of travelling. In case of doubt, the Government will declare which shall be regarded as the shortest of two or more routes.
Government Decision No. 1The shortest distance between Ernakulam to Fort Cochin and Mattancherry and vice versa would be the distance by road for purpose of Travelling Allowance.Government Decision No. 2The route via., Mavelikkara would be the shortest route for journeys between Chengannur and Aleppo for purpose of Travelling Allowance.[This will have effect till bridges are opened in all three ferries in the Changancherry route]Government Decision No. 3In the case of air journeys from Trivandrum to Delhi via., Bombay the claim should be supported by a certificate that no seat was available via., Madras. But the Chief Secretary to Government, Members of the Board of Revenue, Secretaries and Additional Secretaries to Government and Heads of Departments are permitted to travel either via., Bombay or Madras for the journeys to Delhi and back.
(c) If an officer travels by a route which is not the shortest but is cheaper than the shortest, his mileage allowance should be calculated on the route actually used.
14. The Government in respect of Heads of Departments and the Heads of Departments in the case of their subordinates may, for special reasons which should be recorded, permit mileage allowance to be calculated on a route other than the shortest or cheapest, provided that the journey is actually performed by such route.
Note 1.-
The sanction of Government is not required for the claim for higher road mileage by an officer of the First Grade for a journey performed by road between places connected by rail or by air within the State. The signature of the officer on the Travelling Allowance bill will be sufficient for the purpose of this rule. In such cases, the full rate of mileage allowance will be allowed upto 200 kilometres a day irrespective of the fact whether any inspection work is done or any public purpose is served en-route and at three fourths of the full rate for the remaining distance.
Note 2.-
In cases where the distance to be travelled from the Headquarters to perform the duty at the outstation is within 50 kilometers, the onward journey shall be performed on the day on which official business is to be transacted. Similarly the return journey shall be performed on the day on which official business is completed at the outstation.
*Effective from 1st November 1979
Note 3.- Whenever auto rickshaws/taxies are used for official journeys from residence or office to Airport/Railway Station/Bus Station and back, the auto rickshaw/taxi fare at the rates fixed by the Government from time to time shall be reimbursed.
[This amendment shall be deemed to have come into force on the 22nd July 1987]
15. A journey on transfer is held to begin or end at the actual residence of the Government servant concerned.
Any other journey (excluding a journey of the type referred to in the note below) is held to begin or end in any station at the duty point in that station.
Explanation.-
For the purpose of this rule the “duty point’’ at the headquarters means the place or office where a Government servant remains on duty, i.e., the place or office of employment at the headquarters.
In the case of outstations the “duty point” means the place or office visited by the Government servant on duty.
Whether there are two or more such places or offices at an outstation, the following shall be taken as the “duty point” :¬
(a) If a Government servant reaches that station by rail, steamer, or air, the place or office which is farthest from the railway station, harbour (or jetty) or the air booking centre as the case may be.ഒരു സർക്കാർ ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥൻ റെയിൽ‌വേ, സ്റ്റീമർ അല്ലെങ്കിൽ വായു വഴി ആ സ്റ്റേഷനിൽ എത്തുകയാണെങ്കിൽ, റെയിൽ‌വേ സ്റ്റേഷൻ, ഹാർ‌ബർ (അല്ലെങ്കിൽ ജെട്ടി) അല്ലെങ്കിൽ എയർ ബുക്കിംഗ് സെന്റർ എന്നിവയിൽ നിന്നും വളരെ അകലെയുള്ള സ്ഥലമോ ഓഫീസോ ആകാം(b) If he reaches that station by road, the place or office which is farthest from the point from which the journey to that station commenced.റോഡ് മാർഗം അദ്ദേഹം ആ സ്റ്റേഷനിൽ എത്തിയാൽ, ആ സ്റ്റേഷനിലേക്കുള്ള യാത്ര ആരംഭിച്ച സ്ഥലത്ത് നിന്ന് വളരെ അകലെയുള്ള സ്ഥലമോ ഓഫീസോ.
Note.-Where the journey commences or ends at a station which is either the Government servant’s headquarters or his places of duty, it may be treated to have commenced or ended at his residence.
16. An Officer is required to travel by the class of accommodation for which Travelling Allowance is admissible to him. The provisions of all rules regulating mileage allowance are subject to the condition that if an officer travels in a lower class of accommodation, he shall be entitled to the fare of the class of accommodation actually used plus the incidental expenses admissible to his grade calculated on the distance travelled in the case of rail journeys and the incidental expenses admissible had he travelled by the class of accommodation by which he is entitled to travel in the case of journeys by sea or air.
Note 1.-Officers who are eligible to travel by first class or air conditioned class and who actually travel by that class and claim the fare accordingly, should furnish the following certificate in their Travelling Allowance bills namely:¬
“Certified that I have actually travelled in the class of accommodation for which the fare is claimed in this bill”;
Note 2.-Non Gazetted Officers who are eligible to travel by first class/air conditioned class but who are not drawing officers, shall furnish the following declaration in their tour diary, namely:¬
“ I hereby declare that I have actually travelled by first class/air conditioned class on …….(dates) from …….. (place) to ……….. (place)”.
On the basis of the above declaration furnished by the non gazetted officers, the drawing officers shall furnish the following certificate in the Travelling Allowance bills of the non gazetted officers, namely:¬
“Certified that the officers for whom first class/air conditioned class railway fare has been claimed in this bill have declared that they have actually travelled by that class of accommodation”;
17. Mileage allowance is differently calculated as shown in the following sections, according as the journey is or could be by railway, by sea, by road or by air.
SUB - SECTION II
Mileage Allowance for Journeys by Railway
18. For the purpose of calculating mileage allowance, officers when travelling by railway are entitled to class of accommodation according to the following scale:¬
Note 1.-Air conditioned accommodation is not recognised as a class of accommodation for the purpose of these rules except for journeys on tour by officers holding posts on a scale of pay the minimum of which is not less than † 3000. First Grade Officers holding posts on a scale of pay the minimum of which is less than † 3000 may however travel by air conditioned accommodation while on tour subject to the recovery of 13 paise per 10 kilometres or part thereof if it exceeds 5 kilometres, from their T.A. bills. This rule is applicable in the case of journeys by air conditioned class in Deluxe trains also.
Note 2.- Officers of the Second and Third Grades will be allowed to travel in air con `ditioned second* class accommodation in Deluxe trains at public expense.
# Note 3.-[Deleted]
19. !The Government may, for special reasons which should be recorded, declare any particular officer or class of officers to be entitled to accommodation of a higher class than that prescribed for his class in clauses (b) or (c) of Rule 18.

(b) Officers who are eligible for First Class/Air conditioned class of accommodation and who actually perform the journey by such class are entitled to claim actual rail fare plus incidental expenses at the following rates:
(i) First Grade Officers -80 paise per kilometre(ii) Second Grade (a) Officers - 60 paise per kilometre(iii) Second Grade (b) Officers -50 paise per kilometre(iv) Third Grade Officers -50 paise per kilometre(v) Fourth Grade Officers -50 paise per kilometre
Government Decision No. 1
The Railway authorities entertain claims for refund of cancellation charges on unused Railway tickets only from the passengers concerned. So in case where the official rail journey is cancelled solely due to official reasons, the Government servant should after getting the refund in the usual manner from the Railway station prefer to the appropriate Railway authority concerned his claim for refund of cancellation charges (i.e., full ticket value excluding reservation charges and refund already received) on unused tickets supported by a certificate from his controlling authority to the effect that the journey had to be cancelled solely due to exigencies of service.
When the officer himself is his own controlling officer for purposes of T.A. he may furnish his own certificate. The claim for the refund preferred on the Railways, should, however, be restricted to what it would be, had the officer booked and cancelled his journey by the shortest route, save in exceptional cases, where the route actually adopted by the officer is certified by the controlling officer or by the officer himself if he is his own controlling officer for T.A. purposes to be in the interest of public service.
Reservation charges in cases referred to above will be reimbursed to the Government servant without waiting for the acceptance of his claim for refund of cancellation charges by the Railway authorities. The amount of reservation fee reimbursed to a Government servant is debitable to the same head to which his T.A. is charged.
The Government servant should record a certificate as follows in the T.A. Bill for the claim.
“Certified that the reservation of journey ticket made as per reservation ticket No...... ................. on ......was cancelled due to exigencies of public service.”
Government Decision No. 2
The reservation charges paid for railway journeys in respect of the appropriate classes of accommodation will be reimbursed to Government servants as forming part of the fare in cases where reservation is actually required in the exigencies of public service.
21. [Deleted]
22. [Deleted]
23. [Deleted]
24. If available, return tickets at reduced rates should always be purchased when an officer expects to perform the return journey by rail within the period for which a return ticket is available. The mileage allowance for the forward and the return journeys wherever such return tickets are available and are purchased will be the actual cost of the return ticket plus the usual allowance admissible for incidental expenses each way.
SUB-SECTION III
Mileage Allowance for Journeys
by Sea in a Steamer
25. For the purpose of calculating mileage allowance, officers are entitled to class of accommodation according to the following scale :¬
(a) An Officer of the First Grade Highest class(b) An Officer of the Second Grade If there be two classes only on the steamer the higher class, and if there be more than two classes, middle or second class.(c) An Officer of the Third Grade If there be two classes only on the steamer the lower class, if there be three classes, middle class, or second class and if there be four classes, third class.(d) An officer of the Fourth Grade Lowest class
26. Except in the case of journeys on transfer the mileage allowance admissible to an officer is single fare of the class of accommodation he is entitled to plus the Daily Allowance admissible under the rules for halts outside the State or 1 and 3/5 fare whichever is greater. In cases where the steamer company has two rates of fare, one inclusive and one exclusive of diet, the word ‘fare’ in this rule should be held to mean fare exclusive of diet.
27. In cases of doubt or in which, owing to the arrangement of classes on a steamer, the provisions of Rule 25 if strictly construed involve hardship, Government may decide, for journeys generally or for particular journeys, to what class of accommodation an officer is entitled, and whether if a concession is sanctioned, he should be granted the full allowance admissible for the higher class in which he is permitted to travel.
28. The rules in this sub-section apply to officers who cross a river or arm of the sea by steamer in the course of a journey unless such crossing occurs during a railway journey and the charge for it is included in the railway fare. In the latter case, the crossing is treated as part of the railway journey.
29. If suitable accommodation on a Government vessel is offered to an officer, he is entitled to Travelling Allowance under Rule 109 and not to mileage allowance.
It is not open to him to refuse to accept such accommodation and to draw mileage allowance.
SUB-SECTION IV
Mileage Allowance For Journeys

With effect from 1st September, 1985 Grade I and Grade II Officers are entitled for special mileage allowance at the rate of 30 paise per kilometre for journeys for public purpose by motor cycle or Scooter owned and maintained by them. As in the case of special mileage for car, the registration number of the Motor cycle or Scooter should be recorded in the bill claiming T.A., at the special rate allowed for such journeys.
Government Decision No. 3
Half daily allowance will be admissible for intermediate halts beyond 200 kilometres when the journey is performed in departmental vehicles.
Government Decision No. 4
The above note should be deemed to apply only to journeys performed by road. ‘The nature of conveyance’ referred to in the note is intended to differentiate between ‘Public conveyance’ and ‘Special conveyance’ and not between different modes of journeys, such as journey by road or journey by rail. The note above therefore allows higher mileage only for journeys on transfer between places not connected by rail.
Rule 66, Part II, does not permit an officer to draw road mileage for journeys on transfer performed between places connected by rail as the term “Mileage allowance” as defined in Rule 12, Part II, relates not to ‘road mileage’ alone.
32. The Government may, for special reasons to be recorded, allow to a particular officer or grade of officers, mileage allowance at a higher rate than is prescribed in Rule 31.
33. In calculating mileage allowance for journeys by road, fractions of a kilometre should be omitted from the total of a bill for any one journey but not from the various items which make up the bill.
