LEAVE TRAVEL CONCESSION

CCS (LTC) RULES, 1988

LEAVE TRAVEL CONCESSION (LTC) is a facility (concession) provided by the


Government for travel of Government servants during leave. This facility is also extended
to the dependent family members of the Government servant.

2. The scheme of reimbursement of travel expenses by train in designated class for


the Government servants was first introduced in October 11, 1956. Its main objective is
to enable a Government servant to give a break from his place of work for change and
recuperation. The LTC also aims at the objective that Government servant will be able to
have an interface with the concept of unity in the vast diversity of our rich cultural heritage
in various parts of the country.

3. `LEAVE` implies that this concession can be availed during regular/casual/special


casual leave or vacation; BUT IT CANNOT BE AVAILED DURING THE WEEK-END OR
ANY OTHER PERIOD OF HOLIDAYS ALONE. The concession can also be availed
during –
 Maternity leave;
 Study leave;
 Leave Preparatory to Retirement (LPR) provided the return journey is
completed before the expiry of leave; and
 Child Care Leave

4. `TRAVEL` means that the Government servant and his entitled family members
must physically visit the place declared. Place means `Hometown` i.e. town, village or any
place declared as such by the government servant and accepted by the controlling Officer
or, `Any place in India`, which means any place in the mainland or overseas, i.e. A&N
Islands, Lakshadweep, including the hometown of the Government servant.

5. `CONCESSION` means Government’s assistance will be limited to the fare by the


shortest and direct route calculated on a through ticket basis` irrespective of the
fact whether the journey was performed by the shortest or any other route. For
reimbursement, both in respect of journeys to `Hometown` and `Any place in India` the
Government will reimburse 100% of the to and fro fare by air/rail/road/steamer, as per the
entitlements of the Government servant.
