No.E(GP)2003/2/22, dated 04.06.2007

Sub: Up-gradation of 80% of Group ‘B’ post of all major departments – procedure for allotment of the higher scale.

1. A Clarification has been sought from the Board by one of the Zonal Railways on whether placement of Group ‘B’ officers in the higher Group ‘B’ in scale (Rs.8000-13500) in the Mechanical Engg. Deptt. And TT&C Deptt. has to be done stream-wise or for the departments as a whole, since selection to Group ‘B’ in these two departments were hitherto being held stream-wise.

2. In this connection, it is clarified that even when promotions to Group ‘B’ in the scale Rs.7500-12000 were being made stream-wise in the aforesaid two departments, further advancement (ad-hoc promotions to senior scale or regular promotion to Group ‘A’ Junior Scale) were to be made for the departments as a whole on the basis of an integrated seniority list. Similarly, placements in the higher Group ‘B’ scale of Rs.8000-13500 are also to be made on the same basis.
