The BCCI has reduced the daily allowances for staff and streamlined the travel policy.
The incidental allowance component has been removed, and employees will now receive a flat Rs 10,000 per day for their time on the road.
Previously, employees were paid Rs 15,000 per diem for short-term travel and Rs 10,000 for long travel, along with a one-time incidental allowance of Rs 7500.
After tax deduction at source, the per day allowance comes to Rs 6500.
BCCI staff including finance, operations, and media department had not been paid their daily allowances for IPL and WPL, but with the revised policy, their dues are expected to be cleared soon.
Employees traveling for the entire 70-day IPL would be eligible for a total allowance of Rs 7 lakh.
Foreign travel allowances for BCCI employees are around $300 per day, while honorary office-bearers receive USD 1000 daily on foreign tours.
Honorary office-bearers also receive Rs 40000 for a one-day meeting in India and Rs 30000 per day for multi-day domestic work trips.
