calendar (time schedule) for DPCs as contained in this Department’s O.M.
No. 22011/9/98-Estt. (D) dated 8th September,
1998 suggests time-frame for conducting/completing formalities for DPC
meeting/promotions. As per this 0.M., Ministries/Departments that are
following financial year i.e. 1st April to 31st March of next year for
completion of confidential reports (now APARs) should get the select
panel approved for the next financial year by 31st March
of the previous financial year. Similarly, those
Ministries/Departments, which follow calendar year for completion of
confidential report (now APARs) i.e., 1st January to 31st December, should get the select panel approved by 31st December of the preceding Calendar Year.
