Sub: Implementation of para 7.15.24 of 6th
CPC report in light of UO No. 6/37/98-IC Dt. 24.11.14 of Expenditure.
Sir,
Kindly refer to the subject mentioned point
raised during various meetings before your goodself including the meeting of
20.12.16 vide Ref. No. 209/G/16 Dt. 19.12.16 of the Association. You were
pleased to assure the Association that an early action would be taken in the
matter.
2.
It is further submitted with due regards that the Chief Enforcement Officers,
analogous counterparts of Central Excise Superintendent, under our own
Department of Revenue were placed in the pay scale of Rs. 8000-13500/- without
the recommendations by CPC vide Order F. No. 1612612004-Ad.I.C dt. 04.10.05. The 6th CPC under para 7.14.25 recommended to
maintain parity between the post of
Chief Enforcement Officer and Central Excise Superintendent etc. which has not been implemented till date.
Subsequently, the post of Chief Enforcement Officer was re-designated as Assistant
Director. The duties and responsibilities of Assistant Director (re-designated)
of Enforcement Directorate are at par with the duties and responsibilities of
the post of Central Excise Superintendent. The Central Excise Superintendents
join in Enforcement Directorate as Assistant Director on deputation basis also.
3.
The competent authority in the Govt. of India (Department of Expenditure) has,
however, approved an initial grade pay of Rs. 5400/- in PB2 for Central Excise
Superintendents on 21.11.14 considering
para 7.15.24 of the report of 6th CPC but it was communicated finally to
CBEC vide UO No. 6/37/98-IC Dt. 24.11.14
to send the case to 7th CPC against the approval by the competent
authority.
4.
It is really unfortunate and totally unjustified that the matter duly
recommended by the 6th CPC and duly accepted by the competent
authority has again been asked to be sent to 7th CPC. It merely
shows the willful hostile discrimination against Central Excise
Superintendents.
5.
In view of the above, it is requested to kindly undo the
discrimination by implementing the para 7.15.24 of 6th CPC report in
accordance of the approval by the competent authority of the Expenditure on
21.11.14.
Thanking
you,
Yours faithfully,
(RAVI MALIK),

Sub:
DPC for the post of Asstt. Comissioner.
Madam,
Kindly refer to the Ref. No. 31/P/17 Dt. 28.02.17 of the
Association.
2. It is submitted
with due regards that all vacant posts meant for the promotion to the post of
Asstt. Commissioner have not filled for the DPCs of the years 2014-15 and
2015-16. In particular, the promotions have not been done against the
promotional quota in r/o regular posts. This includes promotion quota against
direct recruitment and posts against retirements, VRS, demise etc.
3. It is further submitted that the DPC for the year
2016-17 was due in January, 16 and DPC for 2017-18 also became due in January,
17. It is also worth to mention that
230+230 promotional posts were also to be given in lieu of the direct
recruitment made for the year 2014-15 and 2015-16 as per one RTI
information. The DPC for the years
2014-15 and 2015-16 has been done for 1261 posts as per another RTI information
but promotion orders have been issued merely for 844 officers in all. Thus, 417
(1261-844)+230+230 (comes to 877) posts are still pending to be filled-up upto
2015-16. Half of the retirements,VRS, demise etc. against regular posts are
also to be added to this figure.
4.
Further, 230 promotional posts are to be filled against 230 direct recruitments
made for the year 2016-17 also adding to it half of the retirements, VRS,
demise etc. against regular posts. Final figure is to reach also adding it all
retirements, VRS, demise etc. against temporary posts for the year 2016-17.
5.
As far as 2017-18 is concerned, 104 promotional posts are also be filled
against 104 direct recruitments made for the year 2017-18 also adding to it
half of the retirements, VRS, demise etc. against regular posts. Final figure
is again to reach also adding it all retirements, VRS, demise etc. against
temporary posts.
6.
Accordingly, we have 1200+ posts of Asstt. Commissioner in hands as on date. It
is also worth to submit that the officers promoted against temporary posts have
also not been moved upwards in r/o retirements, VRS, demise etc. against
regular posts. It is worth to submit that promotions were made against 421
regular posts under the DPC of October, 14.
7. In view of the
above, it is requested that immediate steps may kindly be taken to fill-up all
vacant posts of Asstt. Commissioner to benefit the maximum number of our
officers who are forced to retire merely after single promotion in the career.
Accordingly, we hope that the officers retiring this month would also be able
to get the benefit of promotion.
Thanking you,
Yours
faithfully,

Seniority list of Central Excise Superintendents.
Madam,
Kindly refer to the earlier communication of the
Association on the above subject.
2.
It is submitted with due regards that the all India seniority list of the
Central Excise Superintendents have been prepared only upto 2006. Thus, we are
more than ten years behind in the matter.
3.
The process, however, was initiated on the request of the Association to
prepare the seniority list beyond 2006 but there is no desired progress in the
matter.
4.
In view of the above, it is requested that the earliest steps may kindly be
taken to update the all India seniority list of Central Excise Superintendent
duly considering the representations of the officers.
Thanking

Transfer & posting of the newly promoted Asstt. Commissioners.
Madam,
Kindly refer to the
Ref. No. 28/T&P/17 Dt. 27.02.17 of the Association on the above subject.
2. It is further
submitted with due regards that the promotee Asstt. Commissioners were being
kept at the existing station as per the established practice barring those who
were willing to get their station changed or cases where the vacancies were
unavailable at the existing/requested station. This practice was also adopted
for the promotions made in October, 14 for more than 2000 officers and all
earlier promotions. In case of unavailability of vacancies at the
existing/requested station, the youngest officers were being transferred to the
nearest station/zone with the provision to call them back to the parent
station/zone at the earliest possible opportunity on availability of the
vacancies.
3. Further, there seems no administrative inconvenience
in placing them at the existing stations barring willing to change the station.
Rather, the displacement from their existing station will place the Govt. under
unwarranted financial burden on account of transfer grant, transfer allowance
etc.
4. It is also worth to
mention that we whole heartedly support the smooth roll out of GST. It is of the
utmost importance to ensure that the officers from both, the state and centre,
work in tandem for a successful roll out of GST. Towards this, the state and
central government officials have been interacting and getting trained together
for GST at local levels resulting into development of certain degree of
camaraderie for smoother roll out of the GST. Many of our officers, who have
been interacting with the local tax officials, are now promoted to the post of
Assistant Commissioner vide Office Order No. 33/2017 Dt. 23.02.17 of CBEC and
their continued collaboration would pave the path to a concerted efforts in the
implementation of the GST. Dislodgment of these newly promoted Assistant
Commissioners from their present stations would, therefore, harm the prospects
of the implementation of the GST. Accordingly the roll out of GST being only a
few months away, dislocation of officers from one station to another may not be
in the best interest of the government for a seamless implementation of the
GST.
5. It is learnt that
there are around 1600 vacancies in the cadre of Assistant Commissioners all
over India while the total numbers of Group ‘B’ Officers promoted to the post
of Asstt. Commissioner are merely 844. This would mean that the most of the
officers could be accommodated in their respective stations rather being
transferred outside.
6. In view of the
above, it is requested not to displace the newly promoted Asstt. Commissioners
from their existing station barring the
ones who are willing to be transferred to other station.
Thanking you,
Yours
faithfully,
(RAVI MALIK),
Secretary General.

To,
Sh. Najib Shah,
Chairman, CBEC,
North Block, New Delhi.
Sub: Continuance of the temporary posts
of Asstt. Commissioner and counting of the service rendered against these posts
for further promotions.
Sir,
As
your goodself knows, it is submitted with due regards that 2118 temporary posts
of Asstt. Commissioner were created in the cadre restructuring of 2013
exclusively for the promotions of the promotee officers. Very unfortunately,
these posts were created only for five years with the clause that the officers
promoted against these posts would not be entitled for further promotion and
these posts would be abolished on completion of five years.
2.
The point of the continuance of the
temporary posts of Asstt. Commissioner and counting of the service rendered
against these posts for further promotions was raised before the administration
by the Association and it was decided that the necessary steps would be taken
in this direction after the complete implementation of cadre restructuring. As
far as these posts are concerned, no need to say that cadre restructuring has
been implemented as around 200 posts left vacant for Central Excise stream in
October, 14 have now been filled.
3.
Thus, now time has come to take necessary steps to continue these posts and
count the service rendered against these for further promotions. It is worth to
submit that ‘post’ includes regular as well as temporary in IRS (C&CE)
Rules. Thus, there should be no reason for not counting the service rendered
against these posts for further promotions. Moreover as per various legal
verdicts given even by the Hon’ble Supreme Court, even the stipendiary service
is to be count for the purpose of service to grant further promotions. Not only
it, the service is to be counted keeping in view the tremendously delayed
process of DPCs in CBEC. Accordingly, the service against these posts is to be
counted at least from the month of preceding January to the relevant year as
per DOPT provisions. As your goodself knows that around 200 Central Excise
officers were promoted less in Oct, 14 for the year 2013-14, the service of the
officers promoted against these around 200 posts carried forward from the year
2013-14 is to be counted at least from the month of January, 13.
4. As
per the discussions held with your goodself, you are of the opinion of workload
to be increased under GST despite of 90:10 and 50:50 distribution of the
assesses under GST. Accordingly, we will require more number of posts at group
‘A’ entry and above levels at least upto Addl. Commissioner as per functional
requirement under GST. So, this is the proper time not only to continue the
temporary posts but also to create more at every level upto the Addl.
Commissioner. It will be better to keep intact these posts after adding
sufficiently more for GST in the form of separate service (on the lines of CSS)
at least upto the level of Addl. Commissioner for our officers joining the job
as Inspector, which will also protect the stature of IRS.
In
view of the above, it is requested that-
i)
Temporary posts of Asstt. Commissioner may kindly be continued without any
question of abolishing these.
ii)
Service rendered against these temporary posts of Asstt. Commissioner may
kindly be counted for further promotions and other benefits.
iii)
The CBEC being always terribly behind the prescribed schedule in holding the
DPCs, the service of the officers may kindly be counted since Ist January
preceding to the relevant model DPC year.
iv)
The promotions against around 200 left out vacancies of the year 2013-14 may
kindly be made effective since 01.01.13 for the year 2013-14.
v)
The steps may kindly be taken to form a separate service for group ‘B’ Central
Excise executive officers earmarking sufficient number of posts for them at
least upto the level of Addl Commissioner particularly keeping in view that
the Cabinet also approved to bring a scheme to remove acute stagnation of these
officers independent of cadre restructuring in 2013 but unfortunately, no step
has been taken till date in that direction. It may kindly be ensured that
every officer joining as Inspector attains at least the level of Addl.
Commissioner functionally or non-functionally.
Thanking you,
Yours
faithfully,
(RAVI MALIK),
Secretary General.
