Superintendent from the date from which the pay scale of the Chief Enforcement
Officer/upgraded/redesignated post was enhanced.

hierarchy and offsetting of MACP upgradation with time scale) including
retrospective implementation of “very good” benchmark for MACP upgradation.
L. Upgradation of posts & scales like state governments under GST.

officers in accordance of the observations of CBIC under OM F.
No.A-26017/154//2015-Ad.IIA Dt. 22.02.16 about the disparities in promotions that it is an
alarming anomalous situation.

Sub: DPC for the post of Asstt.
Commissioner.
Sir,
Kindly refer
to the earlier requests of the Association on the above matter.
2. It is to submit with due regards
that the DPC for the transition year 2018-19 as well as the calendar year 2019
and 2020 are still pending being already overdue as the same were to be
convened between 01.08.17 to 31.01.18, 01.05.18 to 31.10.18 and 01.05.18 to
31.10.18 respectively as per the DOPT OM No. 22011/14/2013-Estt(D) Dt.08.05.17.
3. It is
also worth to submit that the repeated stays are coming on the DPC/promotion
perhaps due to the improper presentation of facts before the courts or
inaction/delayed action by the concerned authorities due to which the officers
are forced to retire without promotion despite of thousands of posts being
vacant.
4. Due to the lack of timely action
on the part of the concerned authorities in legal cases, the officers are
totally demoralized being unable to get the rarest IInd promotion of the career
without any fault on their part.
5. Under the present circumstances,
it is urgently required to get the stays vacated at an early date not only in
the interest of the retiring officers but also in the interest of the manpower
required for the GST work at Group A entry level. If the Hon’ble CAT is of the
view of not vacating the stay, immediate measures may kindly be taken by the
CBIC to get the stay/s on DPC vacated by filing petition in the Hon’ble High
Court or even in Hon’ble Supreme Court, if considered appropriate. Otherwise
our officers will keep retiring without promotion despite of thousands of
promotional posts being in hand.
6. Your kind
attention is also invited to para 3(i) of the DOPT OM issued vide No.
28036/8/87-ESTT.(D) Dt. 30.03.88. This para allows the ad-hoc promotions even in case of an injunction by a Court/Tribunal or any
seniority dispute.
7. In view of the above, it is requested to kindly take serious steps to
conduct the DPC by applying the provisions of the
DOPT OM issued vide No. 28036/8/87-ESTT.(D) Dt. 30.03.88 during the pendency of legal stays/seniority dispute.
Thanking
you,
Yours sincerely,
(HARPAL SINGH),
Secretary General.

Sub: Annual General Transfer orders
of Asstt./Deputy Commissioners.
Sir,
Kindly refer to earlier requests of
the Association on the above matter.
2. It is to submit with due regards
that the Group B officers have been promoted to the post of Asstt. Commissioner
on ad-hoc basis against the temporary posts with the clause of “no further
promotion” and these posts have also not been included in the recruitment
rules. The officers have not got the benefit of even a single paisa on being
promoted against these posts at the fag end because of already working in the
same pay scale. Rather many of them are forced to get less emoluments on
account of being transferred to the cities with less HRA.
3. Thus, these officers may kindly not to be
transferred to other station/zone (except willing ones), if vacancies exist in
their own zone as was also followed in transfer orders till October, 2014.
4. If the
change is inevitable, their station may be changed within their own zone (Para
2.1.5 of the policy also says about the change of station only, not the change
of zone) and the officers on promotion from Group B having
balance service of 5 years or less may kindly not be transferred out of the
station/zone (except willing ones) where they are working at the time of
promotion. If already transferred, they may kindly be brought back to their
parent/requested place as per their representations. The reason behind it is
that these officers are prone to various old age diseases having regular
treatment at the existing station and their families are also settled at their
parent places due to the compelling circumstances.
5. All of them also have to fulfill their family
obligations like settlement
of the career issues of young wards, settlement of
marriage of their
wards particularly daughters, care of old & ailing parents being
under medical supervision/treatment at the parent station etc. On being
transferred at this stage, neither they shall be able to fulfill their family
obligations nor be in the position to transfer whole family to a new place or
bear double establishments, one at the old place and another at the new place
due to the financial constraints and many other compelling circumstances.
6. The period
of more than 9 months has been mentioned to be treated as a complete year in
para 7.1 of the policy. In consonance of it, the
period of one year and 3 months may also kindly be treated as complete year for
posting to the region/zone/station of choice.
7.
It is also worth to mention that the transfer orders for the current year have
already been substantially delayed. Therefore,
the cut-off date is also required to be relaxed. The counting of months is also required to be made in a bit relaxed
manner instead of rigid terms. If any officer is having some months more or
less than the prescribed years, the condition for him/her may kindly be relaxed
particularly considering his/her representation.
8. It is also worth to submit that compassionate grounds including DOPT
guidelines, medical grounds of self & family members/parents, working
spouse, no spouse, ward/s appearing for Board examination or higher education,
girl child etc. etc. are also to be considered as per the representations made
by the concerned officers.
9.
In view of the above, it is requested to kindly consider the above submissions
with due sympathy for the sake of justice and-
i) Retain the officers in their own zone/station, if the
vacancies exist including Directorate offices/NACEN.
ii) Not to transfer at least the officers having 5 years
or less service to out of the existing/requested station/zone and bring back
all of such officers to their own/requested station/zone who were transferred
in 2017 and 2018.
iii)
Give due consideration to the compassionate grounds as represented by the
officers.
iv)
Expedite the issuance of the transfer orders of Asstt./Deputy Commissioners as it is already mid-October whereas the transfer orders
were very well expected within the month of the April.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
(HARPAL SINGH),
Secretary General.
