Recent directives from the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions shed light on the seniority and year of allotment for officers elevated from State Civil Service to the prestigious Indian Administrative Service, specifically for the Goa Segment of the Joint AGMUT Cadre. These appointments are a result of the 2022 and 2023 Select Lists. The calculation of seniority and the assigned year of allotment are meticulously governed by Rule 3(3)(ii) of the amended IAS (Regulation of Seniority) Rules, 1987, which incorporates a weightage formula based on an officer’s completed years of qualifying service. For instance, an officer with 12 years of service receives a 3-year weightage, extending up to a maximum of 9 years for 27 years of service. Notable officers such as Amarsen W. Rane and Levinson J. Martins from the 2022 list, and Sunil P. Masurkar from the 2023 list, have had their allotment year determined. Furthermore, their placement within the cadre relative to other IAS officers, like Ms. Mamu Hage and Ms. Jyoti Kumari, is clarified under Rule 4 of the same regulations. Any broader inter-cadre seniority issues within the Joint AGMUT Cadre will be addressed by the designated Cadre Controlling Authority. This transparent process ensures clarity and fairness in the career progression of these public servants.
