(A) DIRECT RECRUITMENT TO ANOTHER POST IN SAME OR DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT
If a Government servant is appointed to another post by direct recruitment either in the same department or a different department, it may be necessary to consider him for confirmation in the new post in which he has been appointed by direct recruitment irrespective of the fact that the officer was holding the earlier post on a substantive basis.
Further confirmation in the new entry grade becomes necessary because the new post may not be in the same line or discipline as the old post in which he has been confirmed and the fact that he was considered suitable for continuance in the old post (which was the basis for his confirmation in that post) would not automatically make him suitable for continuance or confirmation in the new post, the job requirements of which may be quire different from those of the old post.
(B) PROMOTION
(i) Persons who are inducted into a new service through promotion shall also be placed on probation.
There shall be no probation on promotion from one grade to another but within the same group of posts, except when the promotion Involves a change in the Group of posts in the same service, e.g., promotion from Group ‘B’ 10 Group ‘N in which case the probation would be for the prescribed period.
(ii) Consequent upon the decision of delinking confirmation from the availability of permanent posts it was also decided that if the recruitment rules do not prescribe any probation, an officer appointed/promoted on regular basis (after following the prescribed DPC procedure, etc.) have all the benefits that a person confirmed in that grade would have.
