Based on last few pages of posts about how important networking is, perhaps he's a well-connected scholar favoured by SLs? Work wise probably outstanding enough too I guess?

Such fast promotions are now extremely rare though...If it's true of course

So, that 450 - is it the overall increase, or just the promotion increment?

think its the total overall

from the posts from the last few years, lots of people said both promotion and merit increments got slashed by 30% or so since covid, and this might have become permanent even after covid now

also looking at the other civil service threads, it seems like the closer u are to the ceiling, the smaller the % of merit increment

Wow how did u get A/B almost yearly in geo5?
Any tips!

Hi I received two parent complaints in 3 months. Will I be given C-?

Hello! Anyone promoted to GEO 5A?

450 is overall increase. This officer got a great performance grade for the work year that he was considered for promotion. Either B or A.

This sort of increment in a promotion year seems to be the norm these days, even for major milestone promotions like GEO5 to SEO1.. the percentage bump in gross monthly salary is quite pathetic.
