Monitoring of HRMS may also be assigned to CIT(Admin& CO). Power of appointing authority with regard to appointment of Group C employees may also be delegated to the CIT (Admin& CO).

However, it has come to the notice of CBDT that in some Regions, role of CIT (Admn. &TPS) is restricted by the Pr. CCIT (CCA) and they are not made part of various administrative functions in headquarter of Pr. CCIT (CCA), especially functions related to transfer and posting, vigilance etc. As a result, in such places, the Pr. CCIT is not able to get the benefit of one more level of advice from a senior and experienced officer.

Board reiterates that the instructions should be strictly followed and service/ establishment matter including transfer & posting and vigilance should be routed through CIT (Admn. &TPS).
