Indian Bureaucracy, New Delhi, May 15, 2029| The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has promoted six (06) Indian Revenue Service (Customs and Indirect Taxes) officers to the grade of Commissioner of Customs & Indirect Taxes (Senior Administrative Grade) through proforma promotion under the Next Below Rule (NBR), effective January 30, 2025.

In simpler terms, proforma promotion is like a ‘virtual’ promotion. It’s granted to a government officer who is eligible for a higher post but cannot physically occupy it at the moment, often because they are on deputation (working temporarily in another department). This ensures they don’t miss out on the benefits (like higher pay and seniority) they would have received if they were in their original department when their juniors got promoted.

The Next Below Rule (NBR) is the principle that triggers this. When a junior officer gets promoted to a higher grade and creates a vacancy in that grade, their senior who is currently away on deputation might be granted a proforma promotion to that same grade, even though they aren’t there to take the physical charge. This prevents the senior officer from being unfairly disadvantaged in their career progression due to their temporary assignment elsewhere.

List of the Promotees is listed below,
