Selection to the IAS from Kerala Administrative Service - KAS
Many of you may be searching for an answer to the question, How you will be conferred IAS from KAS? This article will give you the details on selection to the IAS from Kerala Administrative Services (KAS). We have already discussed that Kerala Administrative Service will act as a fast feeder category to Indian Administrative Services in the about KAS page. But there are some terms and conditions apply. The following are the discussion regarding that.
According to Kerala Civil Service special rules published on December 2017, KAS officers only have 2nd priority to be nominated for Indian Administrative Services (IAS). The first consideration will be to the officers who have joined Government services prior to the date of effect of KAS rules and to whom the Kerala Civil Service (Executive) Special rules, 1963 are applicable. This category of employees has the most priority for being nominated for selection to the Indian Administrative Services under the Indian Administrative Service (Appointed by Promotion) Regulations, 1955 in the quota set apart for the State Civil Service (KAS). However, these employees must be subjected to completion of the required experience and they have to satisfy other qualifying conditions laid down for such selection from time to time. This is regardless of whether they have joined the KAS or their rank in the KAS.
Provided that, as on the date of effect of these rules, the vacancy required for those covered under the sub-rule which is mentioned above shall be set apart for their promotion subject to theirs fulfilling eligibility conditions as applicable on the due date of promotion and the offices of KAS shall be considered under the Indian Administrative Service regulations 1955 to the remaining vacancies only.
Provided that, as on the date of effect of these rules, the vacancy required for those covered under the sub-rule which is mentioned above shall be set apart for their promotion subject to theirs fulfilling eligibility conditions as applicable on the due date of promotion and the offices of KAS shall be considered under the Indian Administrative Service regulations 1955 to the remaining vacancies only.
The seniority of KAS officers (who has completed 8 years of service in KAS Junior Time Scale Category) will be fixed below the seniority of officers who have joined Government services prior to the date of effect of KAS rules and to whom the Kerala Civil Service (Executive) Special rules, 1963 are applicable.

For such officers in the KAS who have been selected by transfer, the period of service already completed in the first Gazetted Post shall be admissible for meeting the qualifying service prescribed from time to time for selection into the Indian Administrative Service.
The above rules are giving an opportunity to both KAS and Non-KAS cadre officers to be conferred with IAS which is a welcome sign. This can also bring about a healthy competition among the young KAS officers and the veteran employees in Non-KAS cadre to strive better for their career growth which ultimately leads to the best quality of service they provide to the common man and thus improving the governance.
