Can I avail the benefit of financial up gradation under the Assured Career Progression (ACP) Scheme when I have already refused my regular promotion for my own personal reasons, such as family needs or movement to another station etc.

Assured Career Progression (ACP) benefits cannot be offered to an employee who had been offered regular promotion before grant of ACP benefit and the regular promotion has been refused by such employee, as she/he becomes ineligible to the grant of the ACP benefits when an employee refuses the offered promotion. If a regular promotion is offered but is refused by the employee before becoming entitled to a financial up gradation, she/he shall not be entitled to financial upgradation only because she has suffered stagnation . This is because, it is not a case of lack of promotional opportunities but an employee opting to forfeit offered promotion, for her own personal reasons.
