Online Registration Process
ESM (Offrs) including on RE-EMPLOYMENT are required to register online on DGR website . Officers can register with DGR any day after their retirement (albeit before attaining 59 years of age) and do not have to wait for culmination of their re-employment tenure (i.e 2 years for Brig and 4 years for others).
The Registration / Empanelment process entails 3 x Steps:
Step 1 – On registration, the system auto generates a 5 digit “Acknowledgement Number” on uploading 3 x documents i.e. PPO, Release Order and Veterans ID card
Step 2 – Issue of a ‘Registration Number’ from DGR (i.e. after an internal Board of Officers by DGR)
Step 3 – ‘Empanelment’ with DGR for sponsorship of applied re-settlement scheme (subject to fulfillment of instructions/submission of requisite documents for the scheme opted by the Applicant)
Release order (all pages)
PPO (Pension Pay Order)
Veterans ID card - CSD card(only for 'Re-employed' officers).
All three mandatory documents must be uploaded simultaneously during online registration process and not ‘piece meal’ to avoid rejection of the application
