Appraisal cycles & eligibility

HR Guides · 0 views

APPRAISAL CYCLES
• There are 2 cycles a year: 1st April and 1st October. You fall into one cycle (not both). The April cycle covers performance from 1 April (last year) to 31 March; the October cycle covers 1 October (last year) to 30 September.

ELIGIBILITY
• You're considered in the cycle that comes immediately after you complete 9 months from your joining date. (Example: join 20 Dec → complete 9 months on 19 Sep → October cycle.)

WHAT AFFECTS IT
• If you're under a PIP during the cycle, you're not eligible for that cycle.
• If you resign before your appraisal is completed (discussion done + letter handed over), the appraisal is cancelled and final documents carry your last drawn salary.
• Long leave (90+ days in 12 months, or 30+ for an out-of-turn appraisal) postpones your cycle to the next one.

Both appraiser and appraisee are responsible for a fair appraisal discussion. Questions? Talk to your manager or HR.
