Seniority in case of technical resignation

Abiral Pandey (Querist) 27 August 2021 This query is : Open
I am a central govt. employee in GST department. I had resigned on technical resignation from the post of Inspector, GST Mumbai zone and joined as Inspector, GST Bhopal zone. My query is whether promotional seniority should be protected in this case as the Department and Designation has not changed.

Dopt has brought out Master circular 28020 / two (read numeric 2)/ 2018 - Estt(c) dtd 27.08.2018 in this regard where in point no. 8 about Seniority mentions that

" On technical resignation seniority in the post held by the Government servant on substantive basis continues to be protected. However, in case of a Government servant deciding to rejoin his susbstantive post, the period spent in the another Department which he had joined after submitting his technical resignation will not count for minimum qualifying service for promotion in the higher post"

Guidance please.

You will be the last candidate on the list of eligible employees in the unit of Bhopal as you have been transferred to another State.
