DPC for adhoc ACIT(2015-16) awaits Revenue Secretary approval

It is reported by ITGOA (woke up recently after long silence), DPC for 2015-16 is awaiting approval of Revenue Secretary. R.S. asked to consult UPSC before according sanction of the same. Accordingly, UPSC likely to be consulted and a note may be sent to them today itself. The issue of deficient APARs have been worked out and hopefully if everything goes right, the DPC may materialize soon.
Regarding regular DPC of 2014-15 : "As regard regularisation of ad-hoc promotion of 2014-15, the CBDT has asked for opinion from DoPT an DoLA on 19-04-2016 as per the advice of the UPSC. In the meantime the CAT, Pr. Bench, New Delhi pronounced the order of the Barad case and opined for regular promotion on the basis of the existing seniority list. The sanction of DoPT has been received and the CBDT is waiting for opinion of the DoLA." - ITGOA communication dated 04.05.16

No authentic news about DPC for 2015-16 (ITO to ACIT)

As informed earlier, DPC did not take place in April. There is no update available from ITGOA in this regard. Rumours are spreading that the said DPC is uncertain as of now. Some of those persons spreading rumours showing the cause of retirement of Member (P & V) while some of them are telling about the objection raised by UPSC about convening of back to back DPCs for adhoc promotion. But it makes little sense as in adhoc promotions, UPSC has no role of it's own. Their authority certainly comes into play in case of regular promotions. The third group are saying that CBDT wants to send the proposal for regular promotion to UPSC first and only after their denial, they can take the adhoc route. The question is while the earlier proposal (2014-15) has been reverted back with objection from UPSC, whether they will approve regular promotion to the next batch while the same scenario exists ! In that case is there any justification to send the proposal to UPSC ?
Unfortunately , there is no communication from ITGOA who could clear the air as they are believed to be in constant touch with CBDT. Hundreds of employees who may be benefited with the consequential promotion are still waiting anxiously. 
Leaders, are you listening ?
