Executive profile of IRS officers – Even Chief Commissioners and Commissioners don't give info

The CBDT is in the process of creating a reliable database of executive profiles of all IRS officers. This profile will be of great value in future years as the basis for several HR or OD interventions. It was expected that all serving IRS officers will participate with enthusiasm in this onerous exercise, which is for the benefit of the entire cadre. However, the Board is dismayed to note that there are still several officers up to CIT rank who have not yet submitted their profiles. The Board has taken an adverse view of this fact and in this regard the Chairman, CBDT has written to all CCsIT ( CCA ) to personally monitor the same and ensure compliance vide his letter dated 2.5.2008.

It has also been noted that very few CCsIT have submitted their executive profiles. This is probably due to the misconception that the database is to be used only for transfers.

CBDT has once again clarified that transfers & posting is merely one of the several future uses of the database that the Board has envisaged. It will be used for several other HR purposes such as training, special assignments etc. It is therefore requested that even CCsIT send their executive profiles for inclusion in IRS database
