Ernakulam CAT pronounced judgement

Ernaculam CAT has directed to allow promotion on the basis of revised seniority list of Kerala charge. Copy of order could not be procured yet. It means promotion from ITO to ACIT is going to be delayed. All regions have to revise their seniority list and only then all India seniority list can be revised. The leaders could have anticipated it earlier. When revised seniority lists have been prepared as per NRP in all cadres, why it would not be applicable to ITOs ? ITGOA never tried to revise the list as many of them will loose seniority and some may face demotion too. 
The fate of promotion even for the vacancy year 2014-15 remains uncertain.
