The Performance Appraisal Report is an important document. It provides the basic and vital inputs for further
development of an officer. The officer reported upon, the Reporting Authority and Reviewing Authority should therefore
undertake the duty of filling up the form with a high sense of responsibility.

Performance appraisal should be used as a tool for career planning and training, rather than a mere judgmental
exercise. Reporting Authorities should realize that the objective is to develop an officer so that he/she realizes his/her true
potential. It is not meant to be a faultfinding process but a developmental tool. The Reporting Authority and the Reviewing
Authority should not shy away from reporting shortcomings in performance, attitudes or overall personality of the officer
reported upon.

The columns should be filled with due care and attention and after devoting adequate time. Any attempt to fill the

Although the actual documentation of performance appraisal is a year-end exercise, in order that it may be a tool
for human resource development, career planning and training, rather than a mere judgmental exercise, the Reporting
Authority and the officer reported upon should meet during the course of the year at regular intervals to review the
performance and to take necessary corrective steps.

This Section provides for regular annual medical examination. The health check is mandatory for all officers above
the age of 40 and may be totally dispensed with officers below the age of 40, except in case of medical incident. A copy of
Part C of the health check up report is to be attached to the APAR Form by the Admin/ Personnel Deptt. and a copy
provided to the member of the Service.

All officers are required to develop a work plan for the year and agree upon the same with the Reporting officer. The work
plan should incorporate the relative annual work rhythm and budgetary cycle. This exercise is to be carried out at the
beginning of the year and finalized by 30th April, positively. In case of a change of the reporting officer during the year, the
work plan agreed with the previous Reporting officer would continue to apply. The work plan agreed upon at the beginning
of the year has to be reviewed again during the month of September/October as a mid-year exercise and finalized by 31 st
October. Based on this review the work plan may undergo some changes from that originally prepared. In case of a
disagreement between the officer reported upon and his supervisory officers on the contents of the work plan, the views of
the senior-most supervisory officer should prevail. Further, the work plan of the previous officer should continue to apply
in case of a mid-year change of the officer reported upon.

After the work plan is prepared, it is possible that the officer reported upon is transferred out. There need not be
more than one work plan for one post each year. The period spent by the officer during the year and his contribution could be
considered for evaluating his performance against the work plan. In the case of mid-term transfers, continuity and
assessment of work and the lower performance profile in the first quarter should be taken into consideration.

The work plans, duly signed by the officer reported upon and the reporting authority has to be submitted to the
reviewing authority for his/her perusal and custody. The performance appraisal form provides for an assessment of the
accomplishments vis--vis the work plan agreed at the commencement of the year and reviewed mid- year. The officer
reported upon is required to fill up the table provided for the purpose in Section-II.

It is not necessary that the work plan should be entirely quantitative in nature. While for field level posts, the work
plan would consist essentially of quantifiable targets, for secretarial level posts it would consist of policy objectives to be
achieved etc.

3.6 The parameters mentioned in section II para 1 (i) need to be kept in view while submitting the self appraisal by the
officer reported upon and in the course of assessment being made by the reporting and the reviewing officers. The
parameter relating to Revenue collection and widening of tax base should not only reflect the increase in Revenue but
also increase in the number of the Tax Assessees. The parameters relating to the quality of SCN and of
adjudication/appeal orders should indicate the sustainability and the adequateness of the material relied upon.

Section II also provides an opportunity for the officer to reflect upon his/her performance during the year and
indicate one item which he/she thought was a significant contributions made by him/her during the year. It is always
possible for any officer to make significant contribution .in the fields of Audit / Anti-evasion, Administration, Human
Resources, Infrastructure development, Legal, Review, Tribunal, successful organization of a major event like the Sports
Meet/ Cultural Meet/ Investiture ceremony etc

attend training programs. He/she should also mention the specific steps that he/she has taken or proposes to take to
upgrade his/her skills in the identified area.

There is an increased emphasis on competency building in the new performance appraisal and career
progression system. There would be a premium on competency and skill upgradation. Hence, all officers are advised,
through a note in Section-II, to keep the cadre controlling authority informed, at least once in five years, of all educational
and training programs attended, including the details of marks/grades secured in such programmes, details of
professional papers published. These would be taken into account in the future career progression.

Thereafter, this Section requires the reporting authority to record a numerical grade in respect of the work
output of the officer reported upon both in respect of the planned work as well as the unforeseen tasks. A numerical
grade is also required in respect of the quality of the output. In doing so, the reporting authority should take into
account the costs incurred (whether the officer reported upon has been cost conscious), the time taken and whether the laid
down rules/procedures have been adhered to in accomplishing the tasks.

Section III requires the reporting authority to comment on the integrity of the officer reported upon.
In recording remarks with regard to integrity, he/she need not limit him/herself only to matters relating to financial
integrity but could also take into account the moral and intellectual integrity of the officer reported upon. The
following procedure should be followed in filling up the column relating to integrity:

A separate secret note should be recorded and followed up. A copy of the note should also be sent together
with the Performance Appraisal Report to the next superior officer who will ensure that the follow up action is taken
expeditiously. Where it is not possible either to certify the integrity or to record the secret note, the Reporting Officer
should state either that he/she had not watched the officers work for sufficient time to form a definite judgement or
that he/she has heard nothing against the officer, as the case may be.

The reporting authority is also required to record a descriptive pen-picture on the overall qualities of the officer reported
upon and his/her performance including his attitude towards weaker sections. This need not exceed about 100 words
and should try to cover overall qualities of the officer including areas of strengths and lesser strengths. The pen-picture is
also meant to be a qualitative supplement to the quantitative assessments made earlier part of this section.

At several places, numerical grades are to be awarded by reporting and review authorities.
These should be on a scale of 1-10, where 1 refers to the lowest grade and 10 to the highest. It is expected that
any grading of 1 or 2 (against work output or attributes or overall grade) would be adequately justified in the
pen-picture by way of specific failures and similarly, any grade of 9 or 10 would be justified with respect to specific
accomplishments. Grades of 1-2 or 9-10 are expected to be rare occurrences and hence the need to justify
them. In awarding a numerical grade the reporting and reviewing authorities should rate the officer against a
larger population of his/her peers that may be currently working under them or would have worked under
them in the past.
