Hi
Please refer to DOPT Memorandum, Govt. of India Order on Creamy Layer i.e. OM No. 36012/22/93-Estt.[SCT] dt. 8 Sep 1993.
In the Schedule of the OM under Column No. 3 "To Whom Rule of Exclusion apply" at pt. no. VI. Income/Wealth Test it is mentioned as follows:
"Son(s) and daughter(s) of
(a) Persons having Gross Annual Income of Rs. 6 Lakhs or above or possessing wealth above the exemption limit as prescribed in the Wealth Tax Act for a period of 3 consecutive years would be in the Creamy Layer.
(b)........
Explanation:
(i) Income from Salaries or Agricultural Land shall not be clubbed.
(ii)......"
Conclusion from the above DOPT OM is as follows:
a) Salary of Parents < Rs. 6 Lakhs p.a. - NON-Creamy Layer provided Income from Other sources of Parents < Rs 6 Lakhs p.a.
b) Income from Other Sources [other than salaries and agricultural land] of Parents < Rs. 6 Lakhs p.a. - NON-Creamy Layer
c) Non Creamy Layer - Salary of both parents should be below Rs. 6 Lakhs AND Income from Other Sources should be below Rs. 6 Lakhs, though combinedly it may exceed Rs. 6 Lakhs.
d) The Criteria is that the combined income of your parents should have to exceed for 3 consecutive years for you to be declared as Creamy Layer. Exceeding Rs. 6 Lakhs in 1 year is not a problem
Hope this information is useful.
