Asked about the term, the NRAI said it will be reviewed sporadically.
According to NRAI advisor Baljeet Singh Sethi, Rana will be entitled to get a monthly salary of INR 50,000, with the other coaches getting INR 30,000.
The appointment was made yesterday.
"We are confident that Jaspal, with his experience, can help the junior shooters to take the next step. He has a great track record and should come in handy," Sethi told PTI.
"We have not set a time-frame for his tenure but the performance of shooters under him will be reviewed from time to time," he added.
Another NRAI official said, on condition of anonymity, that Rana's appointment will be discussed in details during an internal meeting with the Sports Authority of India (SAI) on Saturday.
