Sub: Transfer from one Railway/ Division/ Unit to another Railway/ Division/ Unit.

1. Reference Southeast Central Railway’s letter No.P-HQ/RUL/116/1/3750, dated 14.01.2016 on the above subject.

2. As the Railway is aware, in terms of Para 312 of IREM Vol.I, one-way request transfers are effected in “relevant grade”. In the Note below the said Para, the expression “relevant grade” has been explained as the grades where there is an element of direct recruitment. As regards mutual transfer it is stated that such phenomenon is entertained within the corresponding cadre as provided in Para 310 of IREM Vol.I.

3. In partial modification of Board’s letter of even number dated 27.08.2015, it is stated that the General Managers of the Zonal Railways themselves may decide whether it is relevant grade for one way request transfer and it is corresponding cadres of the employees seeking mutual transfer.
