Fill Vacant Posts Of Income Tax Commissioner (Appeals), Consider Increasing Sanctioned Strength To 570: Delhi High Court To Centre

Case: ALL INDIA FEDERATION OF TAX PRACTIONERS v. UOI AND ANR

Coram: Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela

Case No.: W.P. (C) 3423/2013

Court Observation: “The Union of India may also consider increasing the sanctioned strength of Commissioner (Appeals) substantially at least to the extent of 570 of such posts, to achieve the aims and objects of the Central Action Plan which is formulated every year,”

“We are satisfied that so far as increasing the sanctioned strength or the filing up of vacant posts of the Commissioner (Appeals) is concerned, the CBDT may not have any role to play. However, the Union of India, which is respondent no.1 in the present petition, may take appropriate measures and decision in that regard, inasmuch as filling up of all the present posts lying vacant would greatly assist in disposals of the pending appeals,”.
