CBEC Wants to promote Additional Commissioner/DC - Delay due to ACRs
CBEC Member Mala Srivastava has written a letter to all the Chief Commissioners that the Board is in the process of finalising a proposal to hold DPC for ad-hoc promotion to the grade of Commissioner for the vacancy year 2013-14 and Joint Commissioner for the vacancy year 2014-15.
She informs the Chief Commissioners that the whole process of DPC is getting delayed due to deficiency of ACR folders of officers. She finds it obvious that instructions for maintenance of ACRs are not being complied strictly.
The IRS hardly has a strength of 2000 officers and they are not able to maintain the ACRs of these officers - for their own promotions and they proclaim to collect 5 lakh crores of revenue!
