Work Culture & Environment
Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.
Young Professionals at the Office of the Joint DGFT Guwahati engage directly with the implementation of India's Foreign Trade Policy across the northeastern region. The office acts as a vital facilitation hub for cross-border trade with neighbouring countries (Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar). Work involves issuing export authorizations/scrips, monitoring export obligations, analyzing regional trade data, organizing exporter outreach programs, and coordinating with customs, inland container depots, and industry associations.
Posting & Transfer Policy
Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.
The posting is at the Office of the Joint DGFT, 209, R. G. Baruah Road, Guwahati, Assam - 781024. The engagement is initially for one (1) year, extendable annually up to a strict maximum ceiling of three (3) years. Official tours across India entail TA/DA entitlements on par with an Assistant Section Officer (ASO) in the Central Government.
Career & Promotion Ladder
Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.
The position is purely contractual on a fixed monthly fee (₹56,000/-) with no provision for regularization, cadre absorption, or permanent appointment in the Indian Trade Service (ITS) or DGFT.
