[AIASCT Mumbai @AIASCTMumbai]

Nearly 2,000 Superintendents in CGST Mumbai Zone remain ad-hoc, as the review exercise allowed by Hon'ble CAT on 09.08.2023 is still incomplete. 1,000+ have served 4 yrs yet are denied NFU. We urge Mumbai CCA to hold Review DPCs & clarify NFU without delay. #AIASCT

🚨 30 YEARS OF SERVICE. JUST ONE PROMOTION. A CAREER LEFT WAITING!

From Inspector to Superintendent — just one promotion after years of dedicated service. Even after three decades, many are still awaiting promotion to Assistant Commissioner.

This is a matter of fairness, dignity and career progression.

AIASCT raises its voice. Thousands unite. The time for change is NOW!

🔴 Release AISL from 2014 onwards.
🔴 Conduct DPC without further delay.
🔴 Ensure fair career progression.
WATCH. SHARE. AMPLIFY. LET OUR VOICE BE HEARD!

DoPT recommends Cadre Restructuring every 5 years. The Cadre restructuring due in 2019 is still awaited by the end of 2026.

Actually, as per norms, the cadre should have been restructured twice since the last restructuring.

[All India Association of Supdt. of Central Tax @AIASCT_AIB]

CADRE RESTRUCTURING: LONG OVERDUE!

Pending for over a decade, despite the need for review every five years.

A stronger department needs a stronger career structure. Comprehensive cadre restructuring must address stagnation, correct structural imbalances and create meaningful promotional avenues for executive officers.

All India Seniority List shall be finalised each year. However, its pending since 2015. We dont have Seniority Lists for more than 10 years.

[All India Association of Supdt. of Central Tax @AIASCT_AIB]

🚨 AISL DELAY – THE ROADBLOCK TO PROMOTION!

All India Seniority Lists for Superintendents have been pending from 2014 onwards. Their non-finalisation is holding up the DPC for promotion to Assistant Commissioner.

The result: stalled career progression, officers awaiting promotion and many Superintendents retiring with just one promotion.

AIASCT demands immediate finalisation of AISL and conduct of DPC without further delay!

The career stagnation of Central GST Superintendents can no longer be ignored. AIASCT has launched a nationwide agitation seeking timely promotions, adequate promotional avenues and resolution of long-pending service issues.

The demands are legitimate. The delay must end.

For Cadres down the ladder:

CBIC failing to Release of All India Seniority Lists (AISLs) from 2014; Conduct of DPC for promotion to Assistant Commissioner badly delayed.

For IRS:

All is well

[AIASCT Mumbai @AIASCTMumbai]

Thousands of Superintendents of CGST have been working on an ad-hoc basis for years under Mumbai CCA @cgstmumbaizone @cgstcuspunezone , doing the same work and carrying the same responsibilities as regular officers.

• No NFU, even after 4+ years as Superintendent

• Ad-hoc promotion is counted to deny MACP, but not counted for NFU

• Most have crossed 14 years of service, the point at which even an Inspector without any promotion reaches Level-9. They remain at Level-8

• Their position in the All India Seniority List is unknown

• Their deputation applications are not being considered by other departments.

• Getting less pay for equal work

The review exercise for regularisation, permitted by the Hon'ble CAT in August 2023, is still not complete.
Our officers only seek the regular status of the post they already hold.

#AIASCT #CBIC

[AIASCT Mumbai @AIASCTMumbai]

Officers who joined the department in 1992, 1993 and 1994 as inspectors are still waiting for second promotion after more than three decades of service. Many of their batchmates have already retired with a SINGLE promotion, and more retire every month.
The DPC for promotion remains stuck, with no timeline or assurance in sight.
Our officers gave their entire careers to the department. They deserve to retire with dignity.

#GST #AIASCT #CBIC

[AIASCT Mumbai @AIASCTMumbai]

Superintendents of CGST across India are the backbone of tax administration, handling audits, investigations, scrutiny and taxpayer services.
To deliver their best, they need the basics:

- Seating space as per prescribed norms (DGHRD Manual 2022 prescribes 14.5 sq m office for the Superintendent)
- Proper utilization of operational vehicles
- Reliable, high-speed internet in every office

Many formations still fall short on these basics. A nationwide, consolidated assessment and provisioning, instead of piecemeal fixes, would make a lasting difference.
Equip the officers, and they will deliver even more for the nation.
#AIASCT #CBIC #GST

[AIASCT Mumbai @AIASCTMumbai]

Ad-hoc promotion is counted as promotion to deny MACP, but not counted for NFU. This anomaly is costing 1,000+ Superintendents of Mumbai CCA their rightful Level-9 upgradation.

The permission for review DPC was granted by Hon'ble CAT in 2023. The dedicated Task force for work of review DPC has been constituted after 3 years in 2026. However, no officer of this task force has been relieved so far to contribute to this exercise.

Update on All India Body’s Visit to Delhi – 08 & 09 October 2026

The All India Body visited Delhi on 08 and 09 October 2026 and held discussions with senior CBIC and DGHRD officials.

1. Meeting with the DG and Pr. ADG, DGHRD

(i) AISL and Consequential DPC:

DGHRD officials informed that the Zonal Seniority Lists from Delhi and Vadodara Zones are still awaited. They assured that the DPC process would be initiated immediately upon receipt of the pending lists. The All India Body strongly emphasised the urgency of the matter and conveyed that continued delay in finalising the AISL and conducting the consequential DPC would leave the Association with no option but to launch an agitational programme.

(ii) Cadre Restructuring:

DGHRD informed that the Cadre Restructuring exercise is progressing expeditiously. AIASCT’s earlier submissions and detailed proposal have been placed before the competent authorities, and the Working Group’s recommendations have also been taken into account. The full-member meeting on Cadre Restructuring has been held. The Board is making efforts to place the proposal before the Revenue Secretary, followed by the Hon’ble Finance Minister after incorporating any necessary modifications.

The All India Body strongly pressed for a substantial increase in posts in the grades of Assistant Commissioner (AC) and Deputy Commissioner (DC). DGHRD officials indicated that there would be a significant increase in AC posts.

(iii) Recruitment of DR Inspectors:

Further, during the previous meeting, AIASCT had raised the issue of ensuring that the recruitment of Direct Inspectors would be continued at Pay Level 7. In this matter, the DGHRD has accepted this proposal and assured that Inspectors would be recruited at Pay level 7 also.

2. Meeting with Member (Administration)

(i) AISL and DPC:

3. The All India Body also met other concerned authorities and pursued several long-pending matters, including:Uniform implementation of court judgments. Regularisation of ad hoc Superintendents. Follow-up on the case before the Principal Bench concerning in-rem implementation of the 01.01.1996 pay parity issue.

4. The AIB also had a meeting with the Delhi Unit AIASCT. AIB discussed organizational issues and requested Delhi Unit to follow up with Delhi Zone for forwarding the Zonal seniority list to DGHRD.
