With the departmentalisation of accounts with effect from April 1976 the designation of AGP&T was changed to Director of Audit, P&T in 1979. From July 1990 onwards it was designated as Director General of Audit, Post and Telecommunications (DGAP&T).

The Director General of Audit is assisted by two Group Officers in Central Office—one in charge of Administration and other in charge of the Report Group.
