Income Tax Day to be observed as "Black Day" by employees

Income Tax Day to be celebrated throughout the country on 24th July. The Joint Council of Action of employees consisting of promotee officers and employees, which figures nearly 97% of the employees decided to boycott the celebration in protest of their long outstanding demands regarding promotion, recruitment and other issues. Moreover they also appealed the members to observe the day as "Black Day" by wearing black badges.

Ad hoc promotion to the the post of ACITs extended

CBDT extended Ad-hoc promotion of ACITs of 2014-15 and 2015-16 batch for one more year. The extension of these ad-hoc promotion will valid upto 21.07.2019

Order No. 109 of 2018 [ Extension of Ad-hoc Promotion of 2015-16 Batch]
Order No. 110 of 2018 [ Extension of Ad-hoc Promotion of 2014-15 Batch (Part)]

But it has been very disappointing for the adhoc promotions down the line. All consequential promotions has been made ad hoc basis and there is no move to regularize them. ITGOA and ITEF is also silent in this matter. many of the adhoc promotees are retiring without any promotional benefit in retirement calculation and also being humiliated. It is the high time that either the associations of the administration take this matter seriously and resolve the issue at the earliest.
