    No, an officer through SSC CGL cannot become an IAS officer through promotion. They are appointed as Grade B officer and C and can reach up to the level of Grade A officer, but they cannot become an IAS officer. They work under IAS. However, in order to become an IAS officer, they need to prepare for UPSC (Pre + Mains+ Interview). Some CGL departments work profile is not much hectic and candidates appear for UPSC CSE and become Grade A officer.

    No, you cannot become an IAS officer by promotion through the SSC CGL officer post. Only state PCS officers such as the deputy collector are eligible for promotion to an IAS post after a certain number of years of service in the state government. However, certain CGL posts can provide you with perks comparable to those of an IAS officer after promotion. These posts are:
    1. Assistant section officers in the Central Secretariat Service
    2. A Assistant Audit Officer in (IA&AS)
    3. A Assistant Account Officer in (IA&AS)
    Also, according to the IAS (Appointment by Selection) Regulations of 1997, the state government can send proposals for promotio
