A.Dear Client,
I would like to inform you that the rules regarding seniority of employees in a particular organization, such as BMRCL (Bengaluru Metro), would generally depend on the relevant service rules, regulations, and policies governing the organization.
In order to determine the specific rules regarding seniority for different categories of employees who join on the same date but have different selection processes, it would be necessary to refer to the applicable service rules or any other relevant regulations or policies issued by BMRCL.
Typically, organizations may have separate seniority lists for different categories of employees, especially if they undergo different selection processes and have distinct roles or responsibilities. However, it is also possible for organizations to merge or combine seniority lists under certain circumstances, provided it is in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations.
To clarify the situation and ascertain whether two categories of employees can be merged for the seniority list, I would recommend referring to the BMRCL's service rules, employee handbook, or any other relevant documents that outline the rules and policies with regards to seniority. It may also be helpful to consult with the HR department or seek legal advice from a qualified attorney familiar with employment law and regulations in India.
Please note that the advice provided is based on general principles and it is important to consider the specific rules and regulations applicable to BMRCL in order to obtain accurate and precise guidance in this matter.
Thank you.

A.Dear Client,
Seniority means a longer life than of another person taken for comparison. In the case of a Government servant, it means 'the length of service'. In service law, seniority means the precedence or preference in the position of an employee over other employees similarly situated in an establishment. The simple rule for fixing seniority is based on the date of appointment or promotion. If there are many persons appointed or promoted on the same date, their seniority is fixed based on their merit. There are separate rules for fixing the seniority of directly recruited persons and promoted persons. Seniority is an objective basis for promotion and so each employee is sure to get a promotion. Promotion policy based on seniority prevents favoritism and arbitrary action. Under the proviso appended to Article 309 of the Constitution of India, once an incumbent is appointed to the post according to rules, their seniority has to be counted from the date of appointment. As per OM dated the 30th April , 2013 of the Department of Personnel & Training, Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, the determination of seniority of the merged grade will be regulated as per the following guidelines: holders of posts in Category-I as on 29.08. 2008, will be en-bloc senior to the holder of posts in Category-II, similarly, holders of the posts in Category-II will be senior to holders of the posts in Category-III and so on. While merging the different grade(s), the inter se seniority in a post that existed as on 29.08.2008 is to be maintained. Within the same category, different stand-alone posts have been merged, inter se seniority will be determined based on the length of continuous officiation in the post. In case you need more clarification on your query, you may visit the concerned deptt or authority.
