The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC) has approved the repatriation of Shri Manoj Kumar, IRS (IT:1994), Additional Secretary in the Department of Investment and Public Asset Management (DIPAM), Ministry of Finance, to his parent cadre.
According to an order issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) on June 12, 2026, the repatriation has been approved on personal grounds.
Manoj Kumar has been serving as Additional Secretary in DIPAM, the department responsible for the Government of India’s disinvestment programme, asset monetisation initiatives and management of public sector investments. His return to the parent cadre comes before the completion of his central deputation tenure.
The ACC decision was communicated through an official order issued by the Secretariat of the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet under the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions.
The development is expected to lead to administrative adjustments within DIPAM, a key department overseeing strategic disinvestment and public asset management policies of the Union Government.
