Since SAS Part-l Exanrination in new syllabus is being held shortly, all prospective
candidates should be
advised that it is in their own interest to start preparation for the examinaiion without
waiting ibr the
intimation about acceptance of their.candidatule. Ii is likely that candidates are
not making lull use ol
training classes where these are held under the scheme contained in our No. ANi06lV,lNur,
oateo
17/7158(as amended). Thc Controllers are requested to take steps to see
that the candidates take adequate
interest in the training classes and attend rhe same regularly.

Absentism not only results in all roirnd increase in work, but also wasteful expenditure of making
administrative arrangemgnts for holding the examination. As per SAS Rule 14(b), each permission to
appear in SAS Part-l or Part II examination will could as one chance against the respective par1, whether a
candidate actually sits tbr the examination or not unless he / she is specifically allowed to withdraw his/her
name by the CGDA. In accordance with the ibid proviso read with SAS Rule 14(d) withdrawal of the
candidate not submitted with in laid down time period would count as a chance. It may be clarified that as
per decision of MoD(Fin), withdra*l of a candidate on medical ground after commencement of
examination would also count as a chance. As such failure to appear in this examination by way of
absenteeism or medical ground after commencement of examination will entail tbrfeitule of one of the four
valuable chances allowed to candidates as per revised SAS Rules. It may further be clarifled that under no
circumstances request for withdrawal in respect of candidates availing special chance will be accepted. The
candidates may accordingly be informed.
