- Additional Secretary (often abbreviated as AS, GoI or Union Additional Secretary or Additional Secretary to Government of India) is a post and a rank under the Central Staffing Scheme of the Government of India. The authority for creation of this post solely rests with Cabinet of India. Additional secretary is mostly a career civil servant, generally from the Indian Administrative Service, and is a government official of high seniority. The civil servants who hold this rank are either from All India Services (on deputation; on tenure, after empanelment) or Central Civil Services (Group A; on empanelment). All promotions and appointments to this rank and post are directly made by the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet. In the functioning of Government of India, an additional secretary is the administrative head of a wing in a department. Additional secretaries — on deputation — can senior positions at the United Nations, like as India's permanent representative to UNESCO. The post is somewhat analogous to a principal secretary in a state government. But because of seniority, office-bearers can hold senior positions like as that of additional chief secretary to a state government, and in Union Territories, they can hold the position of Chief Secretary of a UT government. Additional secretaries in the Union Government is somewhat analogous to lieutenant general (Level 15/HAG) and equivalent ranks in Indian Armed Forces, but the rank of lieutenant general is placed above on the order of precedence. Additional secretaries rank 25th on Order of Precedence of India (en)
