Amendment of Recruitment Rules for Deputy Controller of Aid, Accounts & Audit: Stakeholder Comments Invited

Proposed Amendment to Recruitment Rules: Dy. CAA&A

Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance | Dated: April 7, 2026

The Department of Economic Affairs has released a proposal to amend the Recruitment Rules (RRs) for the post of Deputy Controller of Aid, Accounts and Audit (Dy. CAA&A). This memorandum invites feedback from all stakeholders regarding several significant changes to the structural and promotional framework of the position.

Summary of Proposed Changes

  • Restructuring of Post Strength: The total number of posts is proposed to be reduced from 103 (as of 2019) to just 2. This follows the creation of a higher-level Director post (Level-13) and the abolition of several junior positions to streamline the division.
  • Accelerated Promotion: The qualifying service period for promotion from Junior Accounts Officer (Level-8) to the Deputy Controller grade (Level-11) is set to be reduced from 12 years down to 8 years.
  • UPSC Consultation Exemption: In line with updated government directives, consultation with the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) for recruitment to this post is no longer required.
  • Committee Updates: The composition of the Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC) and the Departmental Confirmation Committee has been revised to reflect the removal of the requirement for a UPSC member.

Call for Stakeholder Comments

Stakeholders are encouraged to review these proposed amendments and submit their comments. Feedback must be provided within 30 days from the date the notice was uploaded to the official Department of Economic Affairs website.
