In the recent circular of JCA it is now clear that no promotion from ITO to ACIT is going to take place this year.
"The earlier proposal for the DPC of 180 promotions was called back and the fresh proposal of 200 vacancies for RY 2014-15 had been sent to the UPSC by the CBDT on 10-12-2015."
" It was proposed that 200 promotions may be done in each of the R.Y.s 2014-15 & 2015-16 and the rest in the R.Y. 2016-17, for a total of around 650 vacancies required for the purpose. It was also proposed that all the three DPCs would be held before 31-03-2015. The Hon’ble Finance Minister approved the Proposal on 02-12-2015."
No development in the Ernakulam CAT case, even the promotion of RY 2014-15 is still uncertain.
"" The order of the Hon’ble CAT, Ernakulam is reserved since 11-11-2015. At the instance of Central JCA, the CBDT is pursuing the Court for disposal of the order early. The ITGOA, Kerala Unit is also putting its best efforts in the matter. The UPSC is not in a position to announce the date of DPC for RY 2014-15 before the stay in promotion is vacated by the CAT, Ernakulam."
Still no agitation till 31.12.2015 ( Probably no more !)
"The Central JCA convened its meeting on 10-12-2015 at New Delhi and took stock of the situation. Taking into consideration the positive developments on the demands from the side of the CBDT, it was decided to take a final call on the suspended agitational programme once the order regarding relaxation of RRs are notified and response of the CBDT is known on other pending issues and accordingly it was decided to suspend the agitation upto 31st December, 2015"
