Phrases like ‘same as previous year’ or ‘no change’ should be avoided; full details are mandatory. Failure to submit the IPR in time may result in denial of vigilance clearance and being excluded from consideration for promotion or senior-level posts. The IPR is due by January 31st of the following year. The concerned Ministries and Departments are requested to bring this to the notice of all CSS Officers working under their control. The IPRs may be verified prior to cadre clearance for deputation, training and consideration for promotions.
