in the order of selection and not according to date of confirmation.

21. Promotees

21.01 General Procedure – In the case of promotions by "Selection on merit"/ "Selection-cum


Seniority" basis, seniority will be in the order of merit list drawn by the DPC. In the case of
promotions by 'seniority-cum-fitness' basis, names of unsuitable candidates will be
removed and the original seniority maintained for the rest.

21.02 General / OBC candidates to regain seniority over earlier promoted SC/ST – In all cases
of promotions taking place from 30-1-1997 as per the seniority list existing on that date, if
SC/ST candidate is promoted to higher post earlier than his senior General/OBC due to
reservation benefit, the senior General/ OBC promoted subsequently will regain seniority
for further promotions.

21.03 Where promotions are made from different feeder cadres – If separate quotas are fixed for
different feeder cadres, separate Select Lists should be prepared for each feeder cadre and
selection made form each list to the extent of quota. Selected candidates will be placed in a
consolidated list in the order of merit keeping in view the prescribed quota. Among persons
in the feeder grades given the same grading, those in the higher scales of pay will rank
senior to those in the lower scales of pay. If separate quotas have not been prescribed, the
combined list will be in the order of merit decided by DPC.

22. Direct recruits vis-à-vis Promotees – Combined Seniority list will be arranged in the
order of selections and keeping in view the quota prescribed. If the number of candidates
selected falls short of the prescribed quota either for promotees or direct recruits, the
shortfall may be made good by appointing direct recruites or promotees, as the case may
be. But these candidates will be shown at the bottom of the combined list. Shortfall will be
adjusted in the next selection.

23. Transferees – In the order of selection for absorption, if specific quotas have been
prescribed for recruits, promotees and transferees – according to the rotation of vacancies
as outlined in 19 to 21 above.

24. Surplus staff – Treated as fresh entrants in the new organization. If two or more
employees are redeployed in an office simultaneously, inter se seniority in their grade in
previous office will be retained.

25. Deputationist absorbed subsequently – Normally seniority will be from the date of
absorption. However, if he had been holding the same or equivalent grade in the
department, seniority will be from the date of deputation or the date of his regular
appointment in the grade in his previous department, whichever is later.

26. Seniority on reversion to parent department – Persons sent on deputation to other


departments are entitled to original seniority in the parent department on reversion.

17
27. Persons who have refused promotions and promoted after one year – Persons on
refusal of promotion will lose seniority and will be shown junior to those promoted prior to
their subsequent promotion.

28. Re-employed pensioners - Those re-employed after superannuation will not form part of
the cadre.

Those retired/discharged before superannuation and re-employed will be treated as direct


recruits and their seniority fixed accordingly.

29. Meritorious sportsmen– When meritorious sports men are selected and appointed, their
seniority will be in the order in which their names appear in the recommendation of the
Selection Committee.

30. Person under suspension/disciplinary proceedings – Original seniority will not be


affected, if completely exonerated and the suspension held unjustified. Promotion will be
given against the first available vacancy. He will be deemed to have been promoted from
the date junior was promoted, for the purpose of counting service in the higher post for
eligibility for promotion to the next higher post.
