DUE TO POSTING OF AN IAS OFFICER AS SECRETARY TO THE SECRETARIAT OF GST COUNCIL, THE AGGRIEVED IRS (C&CE) OFFICERS ASSOCIATION CONDUCTED AN URGENT MEETING AND PASSED SEVERAL RESOLUTIONS.

The Indian Revenue Service Officers' Association (Customs & Central Excise) met on September 12, 2016 at New Delhi  and passed  the following resolutions in  the meeting .

1) In Accordance with the recent DOPT circular the cadre of IRS(C&CE) is required to be reviewed
 immediately. The last  cadre review for the staff and officers of Central Board of Excise and
Customs (CBEC) has been implemented  in October 2014. Since the cadre restructuring has been
done less than two years back by the union cabinet, therefore, no post of the organisation should be
 reduced considering the huge workload and revenue collection challenges ahead.
2) If any posts are diverted outside CBEC, it should be encadred to the IRS (C&CE) service and to
 be filled by IRS (C&CE) officers only.
3) Since revenue collection of CGST and IGST is to be handled by IRS (C&CE), the following posts
 in the GST Council Secretariat should be from IRS (C&CE) by encadrement:
(i) Secretary to the GST Council (to be held by an officer of the rank of Member, CBEC).
(ii) Addl. Secy, to the Council be filled in by an officer of CBEC in the HAG pay scale.
(iii) 50 percent posts at the level of Joint Secretary, Directors & Under Secretary should be held by
IRS(C&CE) Officials.
4) Management of GSTN be entrusted to DG systems of CBEC, as GSTN is a newly created SPV,
which does not have any experience in implementing any IT project or domain knowledge in Indirect
Tax laws. Since GSTN is funded by the Central and state Government, there is no justification in
entrusting the management of GSTN to private individuals with heavy salary and allowances.
 DG systems has experience of implementing Mega PanIndia IT projects for over twenty years and
has the necessary domain knowledge and expertise to manage GSTN
