The correct answer is A) An order enhancing any penalty imposed under Rule 11. Under the CCS (CCA) Rules, 1965 (specifically Rule 23), an appeal lies against an order enhancing any penalty imposed under Rule 11 (which lists the penalties).

Appeals under CCS (CCA) Rules are generally allowed against final orders imposing penalties or significantly affecting service conditions, but not typically against interlocutory orders or orders by the President.

Rule 23 of the CCS (CCA) Rules enumerates the list of orders against which an appeal may be preferred. This list includes orders imposing penalties, orders of suspension, and importantly, orders made by an appellate authority enhancing a penalty. Orders made by the President are generally not appealable under these rules. Interlocutory orders during an inquiry (except suspension) are usually not appealable until the final order is passed.
