In compliance with the final Order in OA 1873/2015 dated 10-3-2020 by the Hon’ble
Kerala Administrative Tribunal and also with the final judgment in OP (KAT) 182, 183, 185,

recasting of all subsequent seniority lists of Excise Inspectors up to the present date.
Furthermore, the seniority lists for Circle Inspectors, Assistant Excise Commissioners, Deputy
Excise Commissioners, and Joint Excise Commissioners, which were prepared based on
selections made in accordance with the seniority assigned in the pre-revised seniority list, also
require recasting. Government, as per Orders read 2nd and 3rd above have authorised the
Committee to prepare and submit the draft recast seniority lists of Excise Inspectors, Circle
Inspectors, Assistant Excise Commissioners, Deputy Excise Commissioners and Joint Excise
Commissioners, in accordance with the changes made in the recast seniority list of Excise
Inspectors for the period from 1-1-2004 to 30-6-2006.
The Committee has already prepared and submitted the draft recast seniority lists of
Excise Inspectors covering the periods from 1-1-2004 to 30-6-2006, 1-7-2006 to 30-4-2019,
and that of Excise Circle Inspectors/Superintendents/Managers for the period from 1-1-2009
to 1-6-2019 which were finalized as per Orders read 5th, 9th and 7th above respectively.The
Departmental Promotion Committee (Higher) held on 28-11-2024 had revised the select list of
Circle Inspectors/Managers/Superintendents of Excise for promotion to the cadre of the
Assistant Excise Commissioner for the year 2021 and the select list was published as per
Order read 12th above. This revision entailed the complete cancellation of the names of the
officers previously included in the select list prepared by DPC (H) dated
18-1-2021, and the inclusion of officers in accordance with the recast feeder category seniority
list. In addition to this, the select list of Circle Inspectors for promotion to cadre of Assistant
Excise Commissioners for the years 2022, 2023 and 2024 were also prepared by current DPC (H).
Government, as per Order read 13th above, have given notional promotion to the 35 senior
most Circle Inspectors included in the select list for 2021 and 2022 published as per Order
read 12th above.
The provisional seniority list of Assistant Commissioners of Excise for the period from
1-4-2021 to 31-12-2022 was prepared and published as per Order read 14th above. The step by
step process that led to the preparation of this provisional seniority list of Assistant
Commissioners of Excise, extensive explanations regarding the factors that led to the recast,
its implications and the criteria considered while preparing this provisional seniority list have
been comprehensively outlined in Orders read 4th to 7th above. The rationale behind the recast
