Office Memorandum
Subject: Implementation of e-service book in all Ministries/Departments.
The Service Book of a Government servant is a document to record all
the events in his/her entire service period and career recording each
and every administrative action of the Government servant right from the
stage of his recruitment till his retirement to reflect the history of
service of a Government employee. As per SR 198 & 199 such a Service
Book is to be maintained for a Government servant from the date of
his/her first appointment and is required to be kept in the custody of
the Head of Office in which he is serving and transferred with him from
office to office.
2. It has been decided to switch over to electronic format for maintenance of Service Book. The e-Service Book module is presently available under the e-Office Mission
Mode Project. The data entered in e-service book is available to the
employees to enable them to cross-check and report any discrepancies.
The Controller General of Accounts (CGA) was requested to accept e-service book as a legal tender. The CGA has agreed to accept the e-service book as legal tender for all purposes and accordingly issued instructions to all Controllers of Accounts.
3. All Ministries/Departments are advised to adopt the e-service book as the same will be treated as legal tender for all purposes.
