Methodology

How the Predictor works

A transparent, rule-based model — not black-box AI. You can verify every assumption.

01
Seniority List as Base
The engine uses the CSS all-India seniority list (US Main List) obtained via RTI. Your Sl. No. determines your exact position in the promotion queue — no guesswork.
02
DoR Auto-Calculated
Retirement date is computed from DoB using the official rule: officers born on the 1st retire on the last day of the previous month; all others retire on the last day of their birth month.
03
4 Vacancy Sources
Retirements (auto), promotions to higher grade (cascades down), deputations, and death/VRS are all factored in. You can add manual entries that update predictions for everyone.
04
Cascade Logic
When a Director retires, a DS gets promoted — creating a DS vacancy. When a DS is promoted, a US gets promoted. One retirement at the top creates multiple promotions below.
FAQ

Common questions

Is this data official?
No. The seniority data was obtained via RTI from DoPT and is used for informational and planning purposes only. Actual promotion orders will come from the official DPC process.
How often is the seniority list updated?
We update the database when new seniority lists are released by DoPT (usually annually). The current data is from the list obtained in early 2026.
Can anyone add a vacancy entry?
Yes — via the Google Form linked in the Predictor. Entries are visible to all users after basic verification. Please add only factual, verifiable events (with order number if possible).
Are my search queries stored anywhere?
No. The Office Toolkit runs 100% in your browser — nothing is sent to any server. The Predictor fetches data from Google Sheets (read-only, public) but does not track individual searches.
My name isn't in the list — what do I do?
This likely means you were inducted after the RTI data cutoff date. Use the Contact form to flag the gap — we'll try to include you in the next update.
Who built this?
A Section Officer in MoPNG's Vigilance Division with a background in software engineering before joining CSS through SSC CGL. This is built for the community, not for profit.
