Uploading of information on website irsofficersonline.gov.in - CBDT Instructions

THE Database Cell (DBC) of CBDT is uploading information/letters/circulars/ orders/documents etc. received from the Board, attached Directorates as well as field formations and other sections of the Department on the website irsofficersonline.gov.in on a regular basis. In addition the various CCsIT(CCA)/DGsIT are also equipped to upload information in respect of their Regions/Directorates on the website through CCIT/DGIT Annexe available on the Home page of the website.

It has come to notice that the Sections concerned marks the document to DBC for uploading in a routine manner and without much application of mind at appropriate level and without taking a conscious decision that such document is required to be uploaded. Sometimes this results in uploading of documents on the website which contain factual errors and as such are not desired to be uploaded.

CBDT Chairperson has directed that to avoid uploading of erroneous information/ documents, henceforth, the section of the Department which wants to get some information/document uploaded on the website is required to take approval from the JS/CIT level officer with the concurrence of the concerned Member in the case of Board, CCIT(CCA) in the case of field formations, concerned DGIT in the case of Directorates as the case may be. After obtaining such approval, the said document to be uploaded should be sent to the Database Cell explicitly stating that the approval of the concerned competent authority as stated above has been obtained.
