As per new RR in CBEC, it is worst deptt for a Tax assistant.
acc to new RR, promotion of TA to STA/EA is 10 yrs(earlier was 3 yrs)
EA/STA 40% prmotional, 60% direct. ( earlier 100% promotional)
means in 10 yrs a lot of EA has been come and hold position for promotion ahead of TA.
Acc to New RR of inspector CBEC, 90% direct, 10% promotional(earlier was 60-40 ratio).
Means A TA never got inspector post if analyze data scientifically.
So better TA to leave CBEC and join other any govt deptt.

thanks.
