ANSWER

Minister of State in the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions and Minister of State in the Prime Minister’s Office. (SHRI V. NARAYANASAMY)

(a): No such information is centrally maintained. 

(b): As per instructions the period of deputation/foreign service shall be as per the Recruitment Rules of the ex-cadre post or 3 years in case no tenure regulations for the ex-cadre post exist. Borrowing authority may extend the period of deputation upto the fifth year where absolutely necessary in public interest. Any further extension of deputation requires relaxation of provisions by the Department of Personnel and Training. 

In the case of PSUs, the tenure of deputation, where permitted, shall not exceed 5 years for Board Level posts and 3 years in the case of below Board Level. 

(c): Instructions provide that the deputationist is deemed to have been relieved on the date of expiry of the deputation period, unless the competent authority has duly extended the period of deputation prior to the date of its expiry. Such overstay entails action against the deputationist under relevant service rules.
