ITO to ACIT (2015-16) : DPC soon ?

There is no update from ITGOA in this issue for long. ITOs who are in the consideration zone as well as the promotion aspirants down the line who may be benefited from the consequential vacancies are eager to know about any recent developments regarding ITO to ACIT promotion.

The blog author could not gather any concrete information in this regard. It is reported from unconfirmed source that the file of adhoc DPC (2015-16) has reached  CBDT from UPSC with positive remarks and at present there is no hurdle to convene the DPC. It is also reported that after getting the nod from Revenue Secretary, the DPC is likely to take place soon.

It is once again reminded that the information provided above could not be verified and ITGOA should come forward to share the details, if any.
