  2. Deemed Seniority Dates: For some officers, a "deemed seniority date" (ज्येष्ठतेचा मानीब वदांक) may differ from actual promotion date — this establishes seniority for administrative purposes without retroactive service credit.

         Relevance to Maharashtra Excise Law:

         This document is administrative in nature and does NOT directly affect liquor license types, fees, or excise regulations under the Bombay Prohibition Act 1949, BFLR 1953, or MCLR 1973. However, it is critical for departmental administration, as the officers listed (particularly the Commissioner and Additional Commissioners) are the primary authorities responsible for licensing, regulation, and enforcement under all excise acts and rules.

         The seniority list establishes the chain of command and authority for:

         • Issuance and cancellation of all license types (FL-I, FL-II, FL-III, FL-IV, CL-I, CL-II, CL-III, Toddy, Neera, etc.)
         • Appeals and grievances from licensees
         • Enforcement actions and prosecutions
         • Policy decisions and circular issuance
