Ministerial Examination 2018 : Grace Mark may be awarded in Paper IV
Amid protest from every corner throughout the country, Department finally agreed to consider the issue before publication of the result of Ministerial Examination 2018. It may be recalled that in the last examination, Question No 1 (50 Marks and a mandatory question) was dramatically changed from the conventional and exactly copied from ICAI website and was totally out of syllabus and very difficult in the level of the examinees.
Now the Directorate asked all CCIT(CCA)s to analysis pass percentage of this year with comparison to four previous years and the compiled data is to be used to consider awarding grace marks in this paper.

Laptop for ITO and above, nothing for others !
CBDT approved and issued order to procure more than 12,000 laptops for the officers starting from ITO and above under the 1% incentive scheme. As earlier, AO and P.S. category of officers are excluded again.
The laptops will be procured by Pr CCIT (CCA)s for the region through GeM.
There will be five varieties of laptops to be chosen by the respective user and each laptop costs nearly 1 Lac.
Though this is being procured and distributed from the fund of 1% incentive scheme, nothing is provided for Group C officials and A.O. and P.S. As the incentive is for achieving revenue target, there is significant role of all employees in the department but once again they are deprived of. The JCA, mostly dominated by ITGOA members will remain silent in this issue as earlier occasion.
Are the ITEF leaders listening ?
