OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject:
- Eligibility of officers to be considered for promotion by DPC- Fixing of Crucial
Date - Regarding.
The undersigned is directed to invite
reference to the Department of Personnel and Training's Office Memorandum No.
22011/3/98-Estt(D) dated September 17, 1998 regarding subject mentioned above,
which provides that the crucial date for determining eligibility for promotion
in case of financial year-based vacancy year would fall on January 1,
immediately preceding such vacancy year and in case of calendar year-based
vacancy year also, the first day of the
vacancy year i.e.1 6t January itself would be the crucial date.
2. In case of financial year-based
vacancy year, there is a clear gap of 3 months
between the crucial date of eligibility
and the date of commencement of vacancy year i.e. between January 1 and April
1. Due to this gap, for any such vacancy year, even if the Departmental
Promotion Committee (DPC) meeting is held in time as per the Model
Calendar, there is always a possibility
of few officers not fulfilling the eligibility criteria as
on the crucial date of eligibility,
though they are fulfilling the same as on the date of
commencement of the vacancy year.
3. The matter has been examined in
consultation with Union Public Service Commission. It has been decided that the
crucial date of eligibility shall be 1 st April of the vacancy year in case of
financial year based vacancy year i.e. where the Annual Performance Appraisal
Reports (APARs) are written financial year-wise. In case of calendar year based
vacancy year, i.e. where APARs are written calendar year-wise, the crucial date
of eligibility shall remain as 1 st January of the vacancy year. These instructions
shall come into force in respect of vacancy year 2015-16 (financial year) commencing
from April 1, 2015 and vacancy year 2015 (calendar year) commencing from January
1, 2015 and shall, accordingly, be applicable to all such subsequent vacancy years.
4. These instructions shall be
applicable to all services/posts. All Ministries/ Departments are requested to
bring these instructions to the notice of all concerned including attached and
subordinate offices.
