About LTC Guide
LTC Guide explains Leave Travel Concession rules in plain language, so Central Government employees can plan their travel and claims with confidence.
Why this site exists
LTC rules are spread across the CCS (LTC) Rules, 1988 and many Office Memorandums issued over the years. Finding the current position on a simple question — which class you can travel in, or when your claim is due — often means reading several documents. This site brings the current rules together in one place.
How we keep it accurate
- We base every page on the CCS (LTC) Rules and the Office Memorandums issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT).
- Each guide lists the orders it relies on and shows the date it was last updated.
- When DoPT issues a new order, we update the affected pages and note the change on the home page.
Independent and unofficial
