ITOs to qualify exam after training to get further increment

As per the direction issued by Jt Director of Income Tax (Exam), all newly promoted ITOs will have to qualify in the examination to be conducted by Regional Training Institutes after the induction training.
Unless an ITO pass the aforesaid exam, he/she will not be considered eligible for further increment.
This move, first time in the history of Income Tax Department will surely come under strict criticism and resistance as no such criteria exists for  any other promotional cadre. All the ITO have cleared the ITO ship exam and became eligible for promotion in the grade of ITO. So why they should prove themselves again ?

JCA has responded with the matter with a strong note and in a letter to the Chairman, CBDT, they expressed disapproval and objection. JCA further threatened not to participate in such training if the direction is not withdrawn.
"We hope that you will kindly consider the matter urgently and issue directions to withdraw the aforesaid directive immediately or otherwise, we will be compelled to ask our members not to attend training courses."

If the department is withholding annual increment of candidates who failed to clear the examination of regional training institutes for ITO's. Then why not certain provision for advance / additional increments should be prescribed for candidates clearing the same. One cannot only punish another, there should be certain amount of reward also, for rational balance of the same. Hope certain balance attitude will prevail in near future.

It looks good if by passing the said exam,one will be eligible direct acit scale.

CBDT should initiate steps to ensure quality in ITO cadre. I have noticed some assessment order which was made with out even application of commonsense. I hope, if an ITO can make an assessment order, it won't be a problem for him to clear the examination.

It is desirable rather should made compulsory for all ITO's and ACIT's. JCA should not react on this issue. There are many Steno based ITO's who do not have sufficient tax linked experience and knowledge before they promoted as ITO by virtue of special quota given to them. It is very unfortunate to say here that there are many ITO's in our department who are hesitating or avoiding to face the public because of inadequate knowledge of the post they are holding. Hence, the decision to conduct examination is absolutely right.

This time the JCA has taken a right steps against the unjustifiable administration. Long Live JCA.

There should be an uniformity amongst all the PrCCITs with respect to effecting of the consquential Ad hock promotions of ITI to ITOs. Many Pr.CCITs have issued orders promoting the ITIs as ITOs on Ad hock basis. But the Tamil Nadu Pr.CCIT alone is very much adamant in not ordering the promotion of ITIs to ITOs even for the V.Y of 2014-15. The Board should also issue instructions to all the Pr.CCITs in this regard in the interest of staff welfare. The JCA also seems to be sleeping in Tamil Nadu.

There are hundreds of ministerial staff who become itos which knowing abcd of tax laws and even simple and English. What about them ?

Dear 5.02 pm - At present Department is being run by the Stenos along with other respected colleagues. Stenos are efficient in all respect viz. application of Act, Assessment Order, ITD Application and in all respect. Those who are lagging far behind the stenos can project such type of comments. If anybody is telling or questioning the eligibility of stenos that means they are directly abusing the present exam system by virtue of which all are perfectly serving the department.

Before conducting adhoc dpc, mumbai admin should conduct regular dpc for 2016-17, which is correct procedure and beneficial to employees. Conducting adhoc dpc against regular vacancies is illegal

Why the CBDT can not take initiative to prevent short cut methods adopted by the candidates while getting through the ITO departmental examination.

Instead of stopping increments, such AOs may not be given filed postings till the passing of such examinations. And for all those who are already AOs, already gone through training, there should be a refresher course and they should also be made to face the exam to prove that they are suitable for the assessment work.

Either introduce this type of mandatory exam in all promotional posts like Pr CCIT, CCIT, Pr CIT, Addl CIT etc. or withdraw this order.

What is the status much delayed promotion?

Tokio said...

What knowledge an ITO have who has promoted after three years of appointment that too they worked in a single department even in establishment section. Similar is the case of Inspector directly promoted from TAs or senior TAs having One or two years experience. There should have minimum qualifying service of five years in each cadre for promotion to keep the quality and efficiency.

Tokio said...

Even a direct recruited ACIT after attending rigorous and comprehensive training from NADT and passing the exam of NADT they take minimum three to four years of services to get a clear picture of the department. ITOs also given almost similar powers that of AC . But what exposure and knowledge do they have during the period of three or four years service as Inspector to sit on the chair of a quasi judicial officer. Even in banks there is minimum qualifying service to give even exam. If proper policy is implemented for giving exam and for promotions the quality of ITOs will improve drastically. Last but not least I am blogging from Ahmadabad, here gents and lady ITOs have separate transfer Policy on promotion. Only gents officers are being posted outstation lady officershall be accommodated in the station itself. Rare lady officer they do not have the support meithe from the administration or particularly Union will throw away. Look at other Central government offices and banks, on promotion invariably the officers will send out of station. Here the officers are even unwilling to change the building they sit.
