02How it recruits
In plain words
The Income Tax Department, functioning under the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) in the Ministry of Finance, administers direct tax laws in India. Its Group A officers (Indian Revenue Service) are recruited through UPSC's Civil Services Examination, while Group B and C posts such as Income Tax Inspector, Tax Assistant and Multi-Tasking Staff are filled through the Staff Selection Commission's CGL and MTS exams. Separately, each regional office periodically runs its own sports-quota recruitment for meritorious sportspersons, notified directly on the department's own website.
Income Tax Dept recruits mainly through a written competitive examination, or a specific quota (for example sports, compassionate appointment, or ex-servicemen), or direct recruitment, without a competitive exam. Posts recorded here are commonly classified as Group B/C.
