Superintendent of Central Excise, Superintendent of Customs (P) mad Appraiser ) and Group `C` Executive grades (viz Inspector Central Excise , Preventive Officer and Examiner) have been made from the respective feeder grades as per the Recruitment Rules of the respective Group `B` and `C` Executive grades. Promotions to the grade of Administrative Officer have also similarly been made from the feeder grades as per the Recruitment Rules.

Promotion from these grades to the grade of Administrative Officer depends on the number of vacancies in the grade of Administrative Officer in a Zone.
