Update : Kolkata issued Inspector Promotion Order on 10.06.2014.
Download the Order
"The Central JCA, in its meeting held on 02-06-2014 at New Delhi thread-barely discussed the issues/ problems remaining unresolved at the apex level for a long time and it appears that no sincere or discernible efforts have been taken by the Board to resolve these issues. The meeting further took stock of the situation in view of such long pending issues and rising resentment among the rank and file of its members. The meeting, therefore, chalked out an 11-point charter of demands concerning the welfare and career of its members for their immediate settlement by the Board to avoid any future industrial unrest in the Department. The said charter of demand is enclosed with this letter with the expectation that the Chairman, will sincerely address the issues on a priority basis within a reasonable period of time so as to avoid unpleasant situation in the department.

DOPT's CLARIFICATION ON PARMAR CASE IMPLEMENTATION

The DOPT in its reply to the CBDT, which has sought clarificaiton on interpretation of the provisions of DOPT OM dated 4-3-2014, It is stated that,

•  it would not be feasible/desirablrt to give generalized opinon in respect of pending  court cases, as every case would have to be dealt with in its own context, while applying the provisions of laid down policy. However basing on the general observations of DOPTs OM dated 4-3-2014, the provisions of the OM dated 7.2.86/3.7.86  remain applicable till 27-11-2012. 

• The cases of seniority which have been settled based on the available/implied interpretaton of OM dated 7.2.86/3.7.86 NEED NOT BE SUO MOTO REVISITED as it would unsettle the cadre dynamics.

•  "IN THE SPECIFIC CONTEXT OF INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT, WHEREIN THE INTER-SE SENIORITY OF DIRECT RECRUITS AND PROMOTEES HAVE BEEN UNDER DISPUTE ON GROUNDS OF MIS-INTERPRETATION OF THE PROVISIONS OF THE OM DATED 7.2.86/3.7.86 AND HAS LED TO PARMAR JUDGEMENT OF SUPREME COURT, IT IS UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONFIRMED THAT THE INTIRE ISSUE OF SENIORITY OF THE OFFICERS OF INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT WOULD HAVE TO BE REVISTED IN COMPLIANCE OF THE JUDGEMENT OF THE SUPREME COURT."

ITGOA submitted a detailed memorandum to Revenue Secretary regarding grievances regarding allcation of posts, extra ordinary delay to ACIT promotion, transfer policy etc. Mention to the reduction of posts from West Bengal region is described as " Also the allocation suggested drastic reduction of posts in the West Bengal Charge in all cadres i.e instead of allocating new additional posts the existing posts were also curtailed. On this issue we are of the opinion that the Board had deviated from the principle of Cadre-restructuring and also from the assurances given to us. Accordingly, we would like to request your honour to revisit the principle on which the posts were allocated by the Board and to set right the injustices committed to the charges where the existing strength was reduced."

Revenue collection in West Bengal to be hit due to I-T staff crunch : Media News

The process of augmenting revenue collection in the state will suffer a major set back as the existing staff  strength of income tax officers in Kolkata Zone is low, said the Joint Council of Action of Income Tax Association, an amalgamation of two unions ~ Income Tax Gazetted Officers Association (ITGOA) and Income Tax Employees Federation (ITEF).
Officers from the ITGOA today in a programme said that as per the new cadre restructuring in the income tax department, the Central Board of Direct Taxes allotted additional 20,751 staff members, including officers, to 18 regions across the country, while the Kolkata circle is getting none of the staff members. 
Kolkata Zone has a present strength of around 7,100, among which 1,633 members, including officers, will be transferred to other zones. This will affect the collection of revenues. West Bengal, Sikkim and Andaman falls under this zone.
 In the last financial year around 25,000 crore in direct taxes was collected from Kolkata zone.
Mr Bhaskar Bhattacharya, All India General Secretary of ITGOA, said that the new cadre restructuring has deprived Kolkata zone in allotting the new officers. 
"The new restructuring of cadre will affect the revenue collection in West Bengal. The zones which have maximum number of staff strength are Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Bangalore. As a result, West Bengal will be denied the Central grants in the sectors like health, education and infrastructure development if the state sees low collection of direct taxes. The disparity in the cadre distribution happens because some senior officers including some of the Indian Revenue Services prefer to be posted in major cities," Mr Bhattacharya said.

West Bengal to loose more posts
It is learnt that more posts are going out from West Bengal region in the next three years. The detailed roadmap for cadre restructuring consists divertion of more than 1600 posts to different regions including Ahmedabad, Bangalore etc. This include posts of different cadres.  A communication in this regard reached Pr CCIT, WB & Sikkim office yesterday. A total number of 17 ITO posts are going to be diverted to other regions in a phased manner. In the first year 9 posts are going out and so on. Also a number of Executive Assistant and other posts are set to be diverted in the next three years. Details of this diversion is not available with us right now. It will be informed soon.
It is really an irony of fate that when WB JCA is on agitation demanding more posts for their region, CBDT is taking away posts from this already deprived region.

JCA West Bengal continuing agitation, writes to PR CCIT

ITEF Mumbai circle to hold lunch hour demonstration on 07.04.2014 against CBDT for non honouring the agreement with ITEF before notification of additional posts on account of cadre review.
"We strongly denounce this attitude of the Board in not honouring its own promise of discussing the allocation of posts with the ITEF.  It is indeed shameful that the CBDT has not even informed the ITEF about the criteria adopted for the allocation of posts. In the circumstances, the ITEF, Mumbai circle has taken the decision to hold a massive lunch-hour demonstration on 7.4.2014 in front of Aayakar Bhavan as first step in the direction of a prolonged struggle expected in the ensuing financial year of 2014."
