Hi, In general terms deputation is posting of an employee to other location on temporary basis whereas transfer is something relocation of an employee on a permanent basis.

Transfer is a permanent arrangement, whereas deputation is a temporary arrangement. By permanent, I don't mean that an employee transferred once cannot be transferred or moved to other posts or places in the future, but to a post which is permanent in nature.

It is something similar to earlier usage of Suspension of Operations for Lay Off

NOT AT ALL. Suspension of operations or lay off is entirely different. The former involves the closure of a division and at least temporary loss of employment. In deputation, there is no loss of employment; the service conditions will continue to exist, and salary will be paid on time.

To be more specific and appropriate, it should be understood that 'deputation' is for a limited period of time that can be extended at the discretion of the employer or the competent authority, whereas 'transfer' is for an indefinite period (not permanent). All service benefits/entitlements are admissible in both cases. Generally, deputation is made to a higher post or a post carrying higher responsibilities, whereas transfer is made to the same designation/post. A higher pay scale or deputation pay is admissible in cases of deputation, whereas the same pay will be given in transfer cases.
