All India Association of Supdt. of Central Tax

Despite CBIC letter dated 03.03.2026 postponing the OCM scheduled for 09.03.2026, no fresh date has yet been notified. Non-convening of the OCM is contrary to Board’s instructions dated 16.05.2017 mandating quarterly meetings with recognized Service Associations under the Chairmanship of Member (Administration). The last Board-level OCM was held in April 2025. Continued delay defeats the spirit of DoPT/JCM guidelines and adversely impacts grievance redressal, administrative efficiency, and staff morale. It is further observed that several Zones/Commissionerates are also not conducting OCM/JCM meetings as per prescribed timelines, resulting in accumulation of unresolved grievances. The Association respectfully requests immediate convening of the Board-level OCM and issuance of strict directions to all Zones/Commissionerates for compliance with Board’s instructions regarding timely conduct of OCM/JCM meetings. @PMOIndia @nsitharaman @FinMinIndia @DoPTGoI @cbic_india @dghrd_cbic @cgstmumbaizone @cgstdelhizone @cgstblrzone @cgstcuspunezone @cgstcushyd @CGSTJAIPURZONE @cgstahmedzone @cgstluckzone @cgstchennaizone

@Teju_2016 @aiceia_lko @sgaiceia @aiasctjaipur1 @AIASCT_Vidarbha @AIASCTDelhi @AiasctB52942 Certainly Sir! We are working on it…

Last month, Team AIB, AIASCT undertook a two-day visit to Delhi and held a series of meetings with senior officers of the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) and DGHRD regarding various long-pending service matters affecting the cadre. As part of a courtesy meeting, Team AIB, AIASCT met the Chairman, Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs, on 08.04.2026. The Member (Administration) of CBIC also joined the interaction. The meeting was held in a very cordial and positive atmosphere, and the Chairman was highly receptive to the issues raised by the Association. During the discussions, the Association specifically highlighted the inordinate delay in forwarding the Zonal Seniority Lists by certain Zones, which is adversely affecting the preparation of the All India Seniority List (AISL) and consequently delaying the convening of the DPC for promotion from Superintendent to Assistant Commissioner. The Chairman assured the Association that the matter would be actively pursued by his office. The Association also raised several important and long-pending issues, including: 1. The issue relating to 01.01.1996; 2. Cadre restructuring; 3. Draft guidelines for Zonal AGT; 4. Scheduling of OCM; and 5. Other cadre-related service matters. The Chairman responded positively and appreciated the constructive approach adopted by the Association. He also requested the Association to continue extending meaningful cooperation in the larger interest of the cadre and the Department. Subsequently, the team met the Member (Administration) of CBIC separately in his chamber and elaborated upon the issues in detail for expeditious consideration. In continuation of the visit, Team AIB, AIASCT also paid a courtesy visit to the JS (Administration), CBIC. During the interaction, the Association appreciated her proactive intervention in the matter relating to the regularisation of Superintendents under Mumbai CCA. It was informed that the issue would be examined further upon receipt of the pending reply from the concerned CCA. Further, the team visited DGHRD and held detailed deliberations regarding the issue of cadre restructuring. DGHRD provided a comprehensive briefing on the draft restructuring model being developed on the basis of workload analysis and functional requirements, including aspects pertaining to Branch ‘B’ service. The Association strongly projected the concerns of the members and emphasized the urgent need for improved promotional avenues and better career progression. The Association also assured its full constructive cooperation in the restructuring process. DGHRD appreciated the suggestions and inputs shared by the Association and invited submission of detailed, data-backed proposals, which are expected to be finalized after due consultation with field formations and other stakeholders. Overall, the two-day visit to Delhi and the meetings held with various authorities were meaningful and constructive. However, despite repeated discussions and assurances at various levels, no concrete or positive action has yet been taken by the Board on the aforesaid long-pending issues and legitimate demands of the cadre. AIASCT, therefore, once again respectfully requests the Board to review the aforementioned matters on priority and to take expeditious and necessary action for early resolution of the long-pending issues discussed repeatedly with the Association. The Association sincerely hopes that the legitimate grievances and demands of the cadre will be considered sympathetically and resolved at the earliest in the interest of administrative efficiency, employee morale, and institutional harmony. @cbic_india @dghrd_cbic @FinMinIndia @PMOIndia

AIB has issued the notification for conducting the election of the AIASCT Mumbai Unit and has also appointed two Election Officers to ensure that the elections are conducted in a fair, transparent, and democratic manner. The Election Officers will also make sincere efforts to encourage maximum participation from the members of the AIASCT Mumbai Unit. As details mentioned here… @cgstmumbaizone

All Group-A promotions for the calendar year 2026 were issued in December 2025, except the promotion from the grade of Superintendent to Assistant Commissioner, which is still pending. In this regard, the office bearers of AIASCT have held several meetings with the officers of DGHRD and the Board on multiple occasions. However, no tangible progress has been observed so far, primarily because the All India Seniority List (AISL) has not yet been finalised. It is understood that certain Zones, namely Vadodara, Delhi, and Lucknow, have still not furnished the requisite seniority list of Superintendents, citing reasons which appear to be avoidable and unjustified. The Association has once again submitted reminders to the Board as well as to the concerned Zones, requesting expeditious finalisation of the AISL and early convening of the DPC for promotion to the grade of Assistant Commissioner. The prolonged delay has caused serious resentment and frustration amongst the affected officers. It is pertinent to mention that many officers are awaiting only their second promotion even after rendering more than 32–35 years of dedicated service to the Department, which itself reflects an extremely anomalous and unfortunate situation. The Association, therefore, earnestly requests the competent authorities to intervene and ensure early completion of all pending formalities so that the legitimate promotional aspirations of the officers are addressed without any further delay. @cbic_india @dghrd_cbic @FinMinIndia @cgstdelhizone @cgstluckzone @cgstvdrzone @PMOIndia
