Ref: 1. Board’s letter No. E(NG)I-90/CR/4 dated 17.06.1991 (MC No. 28/91).
2. Board’s letter of even no. dated 13.05.2022.

Attention is invited to instructions contained in Board’s letter No. E(NG)I-90/CR/4 dated 17.06.1991 (MC No. 28/91), governing APARs of non gazetted employees.

Consequent upon doubts being raised in certain quarters regarding the procedure/practice being followed for chain of acceptance of APARs of supervisory staff of the Accounts Department being quite different from the existing provisions contained in Master Circular No. 28/91, and instructions issued on the subject from time to time, the matter was examined and clarification was issued vide letter of even number date 13.5.2022 that the same system as contained in Master Circular No. 28/91 ibid is to be followed by all Departments, including the Accounts Department.

The matter has been reviewed further and it is reiterated that the APARs of supervisory staff of Accounts Department [Sr. SO (Accounts), Sr. TIA & Sr. ISA] should continue to be governed as per exiting provisions contained in Master Circular No. 28/91 and subsequent clarification issued vide letter dated 13.05.2022 ibid. Mapping of APARs of Accounts staff in the APAR/HRMS is to be done accordingly.

Please acknowledge receipt.
