Detailed instructions in this regard are contained in Chapter III of this Manual. 2.6 Examination of the Schedule of Revenue 2.6.1 (As laid down in paragraph 1.4) the Accountant in CTS should agree the grand total of each schedule with the corresponding entry in the Treasury Cash Account and record a certificate of the agreement therein, before passing on the schedule to the VLC Section concerned. The Schedule of Revenue received in the compilation section by the Accountant should be verified – ¾ To see that it bears a certificate of agreement with the Cash Account under the dated initials of Accountant in CTS. ¾ To see that the entries in the several money columns as worked out in the classified abstract agrees with the grand total of the schedule. ¾ In token of having exercised this check, he should record on the abstract of the Schedule “Totals Checked” under his dated initials. ¾ To ensure that All Challans relating to recovery of overpayments of the current year shown as minus expenditure under the excess charged detailed head, ¾ To ensure that All Challans relating to recovery of overpayments of the previous year shown as receipts in the concerned Departmental head, MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.22 Chapter – II VLC Sections ¾ To ensure that All Challans relating to recovery of overpayments of a previous year in the case of departments not having a corresponding receipt head and are credited to 0075-Miscellaneous General Services. ¾ All challans with Schedules relating too 0049- Interest receipts, o 0070- Other Administrative Services, o 0075- Miscellaneous General Services, o 0250-Other Social Services o 1475-Other General Economic Services, ¾ All other challans along with Schedules will be sent to the concerned Budget Controlling Officers/ Heads of the Departments. 2.6.2 During the examination of the Revenue Schedule if any cases of remittances of leave salary contributions by foreign employers, local bodies etc., are noticed, the copy of the challan sent by the Treasury Officer along with the receipt schedule pertaining to the Revenue Heads, should be detached and forwarded them to Pension Contribution Section, along with a district wise statement of credits on account of leave salary contributions before 20th of every month. 2.6.3 During the examination of the Revenue Schedule, the Accountant may come across items of receipts, which are to be included in the Departmental Abstract maintained in another Section. The data entry in respect of such misclassified items should be completed and thereafter the item should be rounded off in the body of the schedule noting prominently the Departmental Suspense Head of the Department to which the amounts relate and necessary Suspense Slips issued to the section concerned then and there itself, as prescribed in Chapter III. 2.6.4 On the last page of the Revenue Schedule, the total amount classifiable under each Departmental Suspense Head should be noted clearly. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.23 Chapter – II VLC Sections Where receipts pertaining to Debt, Deposit and Remittance Heads are included in the schedule with items of other heads, they should also be similarly rounded off in the body of the schedule and the amount classifiable under each detailed head worked out on the last page. In both the cases, necessary deduct entries should be shown under relevant column at the end of the posting on the receipt side of the Classified Abstract without further computation. Note: As regards credits transferred by Responding Sections through suspense slips, they should be collected suspense slip wise under each detailed head in a separate sheet of paper to facilitate the posting of the Departmental Classified Abstract in the line reserved for such transactions. This classification sheet should then be filed with the Revenue Schedule. 2.7 Accounting of Recoveries of Service Payments Article 1.21 of Account Code for Accountants General lays down the procedure to be followed for the booking /clearance of such credits under the suspense head. The recoveries of service payments should be recorded as reduction of expenditure under the concerned minor /sub head irrespective of whether they relate to over-payments pertaining to current year or to any previous year. 2.8 Deduction Sheet 2.8.1 The recoveries towards Fund etc., effected in the payment vouchers are entered in the Schedule of Payments by the Treasuries themselves under the appropriate columns. Consequent on computerization of Treasury Accounts, the Treasuries themselves have started compiling all recoveries from service payments and render a “Deduction Statement”. These Deduction Statements contain voucher-wise, date-wise details of AG Deductions for MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.24 Chapter – II VLC Sections which the AG(A&E) is maintaining the detailed accounts. viz., Fund and Debt accounts of the State Government Employees. The Deduction Statements also contain certain recoveries towards loans to state Government employees detailed accounts of which are not required to be made in the concerned Loan Accounting Section. Instead of employee-wise detailed accounts the Broad Sheets are maintained Treasury-wise and the Debits are posted when the amounts are drawn at the Treasuries and credits are also posted with the recovery schedules month by month. (Authority: Para 2.3 of Account Guide Series –Distribution and Compilation of Accounts issued by the O&M Division of the Headquarters Office) 2.8.2 Recoveries may also appear in the vouchers received from Responding Sections with Suspense Slips. When only the net amounts of such vouchers are transferred, the recoveries (which would have not been accounted for by the transferring sections) should be collected in detail in the Deduction Sheet, and the totals under each head posted there in against the line “Suspense Slips”. 2.9 Payment Transaction Transferred through Suspense Slip During the process of Check of classification or tracing of vouchers, with reference to Treasury Compilation Form I, if any payments debitable to one Major Head of Account was wrongly debited to another Departmental Head by the Treasuries, the procedure to be followed for transferring the transactions to the sections concerned is described in Chapter III. 2.10 Posting of Departmental Classified Abstracts 2.10.1 Departmental classified Abstracts are system generated and does not require any manual intervention. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.25 Chapter – II 2.10.2 VLC Sections The Classified Abstract for Receipt side The Classified Abstract for Receipt side includes the Proof Sheet for the receipt side for each month in the following format Proof Sheet for the Major Head: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) (vi) (vii) Month of Account Under Capital Head : Plan Non-plan Under Revenue head: Plan Non-plan The total of Revenue. Total Debt, Deposit and Remittance receipts. Total of (i) and (ii) Total amount of the detailed head concerned under the suspense head “Departmental Adjusting Account” Total under the minor head “Refunds” Total amount of cash recoveries taken in reduction of expenditure in Departmental Abstract for payment Total of (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) (viii) Total deductions from payment vouchers taken as receipts. (ix) Net adjustment through the Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract. (x) The total of (vii) minus (viii) Plus or minus (ix) (x) Should agree with the aggregate of the certified total of the treasury schedules of receipts and of the suspense slips representing items transferred from Responding Sections. 2.10.3 The Classified Abstract for Payment side Part VII Constitutes the Proof Sheet for the Payment Side for each month. The format of Proof Sheet is same as indicated above. 2.10.4 For the sake of convenience in handling, each Classified Abstract should be generated in two volumes, one for the receipts and the other for the disbursements and are kept in monthly volumes. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.26 Chapter – II 2.11 2.11.1 VLC Sections Posting of Disbursements Side – Treasury Transactions The posting of the disbursements side is to be taken up as soon as Compilation Form II is received from CTS, without waiting for the receipt of last accounts from the treasury Part IV of the Classified Abstract which contains the authorised minor, sub and detailed heads of expenditure falling under the department or major head to which the Classified Abstract pertains is posted from the Compilation Form II which furnishes the total expenditure for the month under each detailed head of account. The figures relating to each treasury are posted from these Forms through the Data Entry Screen. 2.11.2 It should be noticed that the provisional debit to the Departmental Suspense head appears in the Detail book, Part I, while the corresponding minus debit (in clearance of that debit) appears in the Departmental Classified Abstract. The debit and minus debit cancel each other. The DDR head transactions are not routed through the Departmental Classified Abstract, in view of the Deduction Statements received from the treasuries and they get into the Detail Book, Part II directly. Note 1: The clearance under the Departmental Suspense head (treasury portion) in the Departmental Classified Abstract should be for the full amount of the treasury schedule as certified by the Accountant in CTS and never in part. Note 2: The Departmental Suspense Head is not the place for watching the clearance of irregularities or defects, unless the relevant treasury schedule or the Suspense Slip itself is wanting. If payments included in a Schedule or a Suspense Slip are not supported by vouchers, the proper method of adjustment, is to take the items to the ‘Objection Book Suspense’ and account for them provisionally under the detailed head or heads most appropriate on the basis of the narration furnished in the schedule or the suspense slip. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.27 Chapter – II VLC Sections In no case, should such amounts be left un-cleared under the Departmental Suspense Head. 2.11.3 Immediately on completion of the postings from Form No. II, the Section Officer of the concerned VLC Section should check the data of Form II, by means of the Data Check Screen. The Check should be particularly in respect of class of expenditure like Voted, Charged and Plan, Non-plan to full extent. In respect of amount of expenditure he may check the correctness of classification to the extent of at least 10% of the entries, under each Major Head of Account in each month, where the expenditure booked under any detailed head exceeds Rs.5,00,000/- Refer Para 2.1.3 of this Manual in respect of check of Classification in respect of Receipt Schedules. 2.12 Posting of Receipt Side – Treasury Transactions 2.12.1 No manual posting is done separately. On receipt of receipt schedule (Form II) from the CTS, the case worker in VLC should verify the schedule and then enter the data in the VLC module, treasury-wise, duly classifying the items as classified in Form II. 2.12.2 After the transactions in respect of all the treasuries are thus posted, the grand total under each head works out in the computer system for each Parts of the Classified Abstract Part I, II, and IV, V against the line “Total – Treasuries”. 2.13 Posting of Suspense Slip Transactions 2.13.1 The transactions brought to account through Suspense Slips by Responding Sections are compiled in separate Compilation Books (Forms 1 and 2). The monthly totals worked out therein under the several detailed heads should be posted in the Classified Abstract (Parts 4 and 5) under the appropriate heads against the line “Suspense Slips”. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION In respect of these Page No.28 Chapter – II VLC Sections figures also, the totals under minor and sub-heads should be struck wherever columns are provided for the purpose in the abstract. The grand total of the amounts posted on that line increased by the amounts of refunds, if any, transferred through minus figure under the Departmental Suspense Head of the Department against the line “Suspense Slips”. 2.13.2 Receipts Items of receipts, if any, transferred from Originating Sections through Suspense Slips should after collection be posted in the Classified Abstract, Parts 1 and/or 2 as the case may be, under the appropriate heads of account against the line “Suspense Slips”. Such of the items as are to be taken as deduction from expenditure, should of course, be taken to Part 4 of the Abstract. The total of the receipts so accounted for should also be posted in Part (2) as a minus figure under the Departmental Suspense Head of the Department against the line “Suspense Slips”. Note (1): Refunds of Revenue should be shown in the Suspense Slips as Debits and not as minus Credits. Note (2): In both the cases of accounting of suspense slips transactions, the mistake at treasury compilation should be intimated to the Grant Controlling authority with intimation to effect necessary changes in the Data Base of the State Government. An advance copy of the letter with List of suspense transactions should also be sent to TNMC 2.14 Postings in respect of Transfer transactions Transactions through Transfer Entries are to be carried out through T.E. Screen provided in the VLC Module. This transaction will appear separately in the classified abstract generated through VLC. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.29 Chapter – II 2.15 VLC Sections Completion of the Abstract The final stage in the completion of the abstract is the preparation of the Proof Sheets in Parts (6) and (7) as indicated in paragraph 2.8.2 above. On completion, the Abstract accompanied by the schedules of receipts and payments, vouchers and all supporting documents should be made over to the Section Officer / Assistant Accounts Officer for examination as laid down in Article 1.15 Account Code for Accountant General. Note 1: For purposes of agreement both ‘Plan’ and ‘Non Plan’ figures should be posted in the Proof Sheet. Note 2: In the case of Abstract relating to Public Works, Industries and Forest, a similar procedure should be followed and the questionnaire appended to the Classified Abstract, concerned. 2.16 Classification of Transactions at Data Entry Stage A reference is invited to Office Order No. AG (A&E)/VLC/CMP/Vol-2/20042005/135 dated 6.10.2004, wherein all Accounting Sections were instructed to strictly adhere to the Classification as per Form 2 while capturing data in VLC. However, adhering to the Classification as per Form 2 while capturing data even in cases where the Sections were aware that the classification in Form 2 was incorrect and capturing data from Form 2 when classification by Treasury is incorrect has resulted in a large number of misclassification. This office cannot absolve itself from the responsibility of ensuring the correctness of accounts even at secondary level compilation and hence should allow reconciliation by the departmental authorities with reference to the records of this office and carry out adjustments arising out of reconciliation under intimation to the Controlling Officers / Treasuries / Director of MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.30 Chapter – II VLC Sections Treasuries, without waiting for receipt of Certificate of reconciliation from the Chief Controlling Officers. Capturing data from Form 2 when classification by Treasury is incorrect and is not in conformity with the provisions made in the Budget Estimates for the Financial Year concerned led to a large number of Journal Entries at the end of the Financial Year and consequently delay in preparation of Finance and Appropriation Accounts. Accounting Sections are therefore instructed to follow the procedure indicated below: 1. Adhere to Form 2 initially while capturing data. 2. On receipt of monthly report on ‘Nil Budget Provision’ from VLC (C) the accounting sections shall verify these transactions with reference to original vouchers / challans / schedules and furnish a report as per Annexure IV to this manual to Sr. DAG (A/Cs & VLC) through TM duly indicating the misclassification in Treasury (Form 2) (Details of Treasury, Voucher number, amount, DDO and Classification as per Treasury accounts shall be furnished in the Report) for submission of a Consolidated report to Government. The accounting sections shall furnish these details within one week from the date of receipt of report on ‘Nil Budget Provision’ from VLC (C). 3. After submission of the details as above, the accounting sections shall take necessary action to rectify the misclassifications wherever necessary by proposing suitable Transfer Entries in the subsequent monthly account after completing the prescribed supervisory checks. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.31 Chapter – II 4. VLC Sections Wherever rectifications are carried out by the accounting sections, fact of rectification of misclassification shall be intimated to the Treasury / CCO / DDO concerned. 5. The submission of Report of ‘Nil Budget Provision’ to Sr. DAG (Accts & VLC) through TM Section (mentioned in Para 2 above) and intimating the fact of rectification to Treasury / CCO / Drawing and Disbursing Officer (mentioned in Para 4 above) shall be watched through Calendar of Returns. 6. The accounting sections shall continue to retain the Vouches / Challans relating to ‘Nil Budget Provision’ till the closure of annual accounts for any future verification. 7. Share of net proceeds assigned to States under the Major Head 0020, 0021, 0028, 0032, 0037, 0038, 0044 and 0045 are only in response of clearance memos received from AC Section. Any amount classified by Treasuries under Minor Head 901-below these major heads should be verified and classified correctly in the accounts. 8. As the Capital Receipts are always taken as reduction in Capital Expenditure, classifying the Capital Receipts under plan category will adversely affect the Plan Expenditure. As such, all Capital Receipts already accounted under Plan category have to be transferred to Non Plan category and also have to be shown distinctly under the Detailed head 90 [Deduct Recoveries] under respective Minor Heads / Sub-Heads. 9. It should be ensured that no revenue receipts are classified under minor head 900, which is meant for classifying ‘Deduct Refunds’ only. Similarly, no refunds should be booked under any Minor Head other than Minor Head 900 / Detailed Head 90 as provided in the Budget Estimates. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.32 Chapter – II 10. VLC Sections While rectifying misclassifications by withdrawing Debit / Credit [Revenue / Capital Expenditure and Revenue Receipts] it should be ensured that the progressive figures do not result in minus figures. 11. It is re-emphasized that while making data entry, proper care shall be taken to classify the transactions correctly under Plan / Non Plan and Charged / Voted categories. (Authority: TM/D/2006-07/267 dated 8-Jun-07) 2.17 Check of Classification 2.17.1 The staff of the AG (A&E) will be responsible for the correctness of postings of vouchers in the Compilation Book, Classified and consolidated abstracts.

In case, there are any discrepancies either in the drawals or in classification of expenditure, a statement indicating the discrepancies with MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.39 Chapter – II VLC Sections voucher number, amount, head of account under which mis-classified and the correct head of account to which it relates has to be furnished by the Drawing and Disbursing Officer to the treasury. The treasury shall incorporate the corrections suggested by Drawing and Disbursing Officer before rendering classified accounts to the Accountant General (A&E). The Drawing and Disbursing Officer shall forward a copy of the statement and a list of head of account-wise expenditure to the Controlling Officer at the District/SubTreasury level. In respect of post rendering of accounts to the Accountant General (A&E), any rectification of mis-classifications by the treasuries shall be referred to the Controlling Officer / District Level Departmental Officer with voucherwise details by the Drawing and Disbursing Officers. In case, any District Treasury requires verification of vouchers for carrying out adjustments proposed by the Controlling Officers in cases of post rendering of accounts, the district treasury shall address the Accountant General (A&E) for verification of the relevant vouchers. The Accountant General (A&E) shall after verification of vouchers communicate the approval of adjustments or otherwise to the District Treasury. The Controlling Officer shall furnish the details of adjustments to the concerned District Treasury Officer and a copy shall be endorsed to the Chief Controlling Officer. The District Treasury Officer after verification and check with Form I shall carry out adjustments in the monthly accounts on hand. The adjustments shall be shown as a distinct entry in the schedule of payments of the relevant major heads based on the authority for proposed adjustments by the Controlling Officer. The District Controlling Officer shall consolidate the data furnished by all the Drawing and Disbursing Officers in the district and forward the district-wise figures to the Chief Controlling Officer or Head of the Department by 15th of the succeeding month. The Chief Controlling Officer shall compile the MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.40 Chapter – II VLC Sections district-wise expenditure from the statements forwarded by the District Controlling Officers. The Accountant General (A&E) shall forward monthly statements of receipts and expenditure to the Chief Controlling Officers soon after rendering of monthly civil accounts to Government. The Chief Controlling Officers shall reconcile the receipts and expenditure figures as furnished by Accountant General (A&E) with those compiled by him. The Chief Controlling Officer shall be responsible for final reconciliation and forwarding certificates of reconciliation. A copy of the certificate shall also be sent to the Internal Financial Advisor of the Administrative Secretariat. The Internal Financial Advisor of the administrative secretariat shall be responsible for monitoring the progress in reconciliation by the Chief Controlling Officers of his department and shall forward a monthly progress report on reconciliation to Finance Department. Failure to reconcile the expenditure figures by the departments will result in increase in number of frauds, defalcations and over-drawals. Consequent on the introduction of Treasury Control of Budget, the non-reconciliation or delay in reconciliation will also cause problems in variation of expenditure figures of departments with those of the Treasury / Accountant General and in budget allocation availability between the departments and the treasuries. The Government has therefore decided to take stringent action against officers who fail to complete reconciliation of department figures with the treasuries / Accountant General (A&E). In order to see that the process of reconciliation is full and complete, the following measures are also prescribed. (i) No Sub-Treasury / District Treasury shall permit any non-salary drawal by the Drawing and Disbursing Officers from 10th of the succeeding month, in case, the Drawing and Disbursing Officers have not reconciled the expenditure figures with the Treasury for the previous month. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION The SubPage No.41 Chapter – II VLC Sections Treasury / District Treasury Officer will, while disallowing non-salary drawal, quote this Government Order and return the bill with specific observation about non-reconciliation amount pending reconciliation and period of pendency. (ii) The Chief Controlling Offices shall not permit any drawal by the Controlling Officer at the district/state level in case, district-wise figures are not furnished by the 25th of the succeeding month. The Chief Controlling Officers shall instruct District Treasuries in this regard. (iii) Administrative Secretariat Departments shall instruct the Treasuries to stop all non-salary payments from 15th of the second following month in respect of the Chief Controlling Officers who have not forwarded the certificates of reconciliation to the Accountant General / Administrative Secretariat Department. (iv) The Internal Financial Advisor of the Administrative Secretariat Department shall forward list of Chief Controlling Officers who have not reconciled the figures to the Finance Department every month. (v) The Finance Department shall not release any allotment to such Chief Controlling Officers till reconciliation is completed and certified by the Administrative Secretariat Department. All proposals for release by finance Department will have to be accompanied by a statement by Internal Financial Advisor (IFA)/Administrative Secretary (where there is no IFA) on the status of reconciliation till the previous month. (Authority: G.O. Dated 9/9/2004) MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.42 Chapter – II 2.22 VLC Sections Reconciliation of Departmental figures of Revenue and Expenditure The Chief Controlling Officers are responsible for final reconciliation and for forwarding the certificates of reconciliation to the Accountant General (A&E). The statements of mis-classification, if any, shall be arranged to be handed over to the Senior Accounts Officer (TM) in Main Building in the office of the Accountant General (A&E). The Chief Controlling Officers shall also forward certificates of reconciliation to the Accountant General that the figures as per his registers have been reconciled with those of the Accountant General subject to necessary adjustments pointed out in the statements of mis-classifications by Chief Controlling Officer to be carried out by the Accountant General (A&E). In cases, where there are no mis-classifications, the Chief Controlling Officers shall forward the certificates to the Accountant General (A&E) that the Departmental figures agree with those of the Accounts Office. The Internal Financial Advisors of the Administrative Departments shall monitor the day-to-day progress in reconciliation by the Chief Controlling Officers under them. (Authority: GO No. FD 05 TAR 2004, Bangalore dated 24th June 2006) 2.23 Reconciliation of Departmental figures of receipts and expenditure with those of Accounts Office by Controlling Officers. An effective and efficient control mechanism for watching the progress of expenditure and monitoring the expenditure against the grants / appropriations by the Controlling Officers depends on the monthly MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.43 Chapter – II VLC Sections reconciliation of figures of expenditure of the departments with those of the Accounts Office. The detailed procedure and time schedule to be followed by the Drawing, Controlling and Chief Controlling Officers for drawal of moneys on bills from the Treasury for expenditure, its accounting and reconciliation with those in the books of the Accounts Office is contained in Article 346 of the Karnataka Financial Code. 2. It is, however, observed that the prescribed procedure is not being followed and time schedule not being adhered to by most of the Controlling Officers. In spite of repeated instructions by the Finance Department to complete the reconciliation within the time schedule for each financial year, the Accountant General (A&E) is forwarding every month a list of Controlling Officers who have failed to complete the reconciliation and the position of arrears in reconciliation. The failure of Controlling Officers in completing the reconciliation within the prescribed time schedule results in incorrect plan and non-plan figures remaining as uncorrected mistakes and excess / savings under each Grant / Appropriation I accounts. Such excess / savings in accounts are being commented upon by the Accountant General in Appropriation Accounts and Audit Reports every year and the Public Accounts Committee is also commenting upon the failure of the Departments to reconcile the figures of receipts and expenditure. Even more serious is the fact that failure to reconcile expenditure figures on a regular basis may result in excess drawals over and above the budget, either by design or by oversight. 3. As the situation has not improved over the years and as the number of defaulting Controlling Officers and the arrears position is increasing year after year, the codal provisions and the procedure for effecting reconciliation is brought out below for effective implementation by the Drawing, Controlling and Chief Controlling Officers: MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.44 Chapter – II (i) VLC Sections Every Drawing Office shall maintain the Register of Bills for encashment in Form No. KFC 62-A (revised) and the procedure prescribed in Article 346 (b) of KFC may be followed to obtain the Voucher Number and date of encashment of all the bills presented to the Treasury. (ii) The Drawing Officer must enter on each bill and in Encashment Register of Bills in Form 62-A, the progressive total of expenditure upto date under the sub-head or sub-heads to which the bill relates. (iii) Every Drawing Officer and Controlling Officer must maintain a register in Form KFC 62-B for each minor or sub-head of account with which he is concerned and necessary particulars of the charge drawn on each bill under the appropriate primary unit and detailed head must be entered in this register. (iv) An extract of the entries in this register so far as they relate to bills actually cashed at the treasury during the preceding month must be sent in full detail by every Drawing Officer to the Controlling Officer by tenth of the following month. (v) The Controlling Officer must maintain a broadsheet in Form KFC 62-C in which a serial number will be allotted to each individual Drawing Officer to watch the receipt of returns from the Drawing Officers. (vi) The Controlling Officer must carefully examine the returns and satisfy himself that the accounts classification has been properly given and that progressive expenditure has been properly noted and is within the grant. (vii) When all the Drawing Officers’ returns for a particular month have been received and found to be in order, the Controlling Officer must prepare a statement in Form KFC 62-D which should incorporate the total of the figures supplied by the Drawing Officers, the totals taken from his own register in MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.45 Chapter – II VLC Sections Form KFC 62-B and the totals of adjustments under the various detailed heads which will be communicated by the Accountant General on account of transfer entries and expenditure debited to the grant through account current. (viii) The Competent Authority (i.e. Estimating Officer for budget) who is ultimately responsible for the control over expenditure against the grants / appropriations for which he is the Estimating Officer and is required to reconcile the departmental figures under the grant / appropriation with the corresponding figures booked by the Accountant General and furnish to the Accountant General certificate of final reconciliation must prepare, on receipt of returns, an account in Form KFC 62-E showing the complete expenditure from the grant at his disposal upto the end of the month concerned. 4. The detailed procedure for effecting the reconciliation between departmental figures in Form KFC 62-E and those in the books of the Accountant General is as under: The Departmental Controlling Office should send a responsible official of his office to the Accountant General’s Office with the departmental registers not later than the 25th of the second following month. The official should, with the assistance of the Accountant General’s staff, compare the departmental figures with those recorded in the Accountant General’s books. The official should prepare in duplicate, a statement of discrepancies (in Form 79) showing, separately, the adjustments to be made in the Accountant General’s books and those to be made by the departmental Controlling Officer in his books. The Accountant General’s Office will keep one copy of it, and the other will be taken by the departmental official for the use of the department. The departmental Controlling Officer after effecting necessary adjustments should inform the Accountant General that his has been done. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.46 Chapter – II VLC Sections The Accountant General will likewise make necessary adjustments in his books and inform the departmental Controlling Officer to that effect. The latter should then send a certificate to the Accountant General stating that the figures in its registers have been reconciled with those of the Accountant General. This certificate should be sent not later than the 15th of the 3rd following month. 5.

Any corrections found necessary in the figures furnished by the Divisional Officers should be incorporated in the circle statement and communicated also to the Executive Engineer. (iv) The Superintending Engineers concerned should furnish to the Accountant General, a certificate not later than the 15th of the 3rd following month that the figures of works expenditure under Grant No………………. Major Head ………………….. for the month of …………… have been verified and reconciled with those of the Accountant General. (v) The reconciled statements of Superintending Engineers will, thereafter, be sent to the Chief Engineer for his information. B. Forest Accounts (i) The District Forest Officers and other disbursing officers should send to the Conservator of Forests, or other Controlling Officer concerned a progressive statement of expenditure for each month compared with the appropriations in Form KFC 62-G, so as to reach him not later than the 15th of the succeeding month. This statement should be compiled from the monthly divisional accounts forwarded to the Accountant General. (ii) The Conservator should after check of the statements consolidate them including the figures of expenditure incurred by him directly, in a progressive statement of expenditure in Form KFC 62-H for the whole circle. (iii) Each Conservator receives from the Accountant General, monthly, a summary of expenditure under the several heads of account, the figures of which should be reconciled by him with those worked out in the statement referred to above. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.48 Chapter – II (iv) VLC Sections In other respects, the procedure applicable to the works expenditure of the Public Works Department will apply mutatis mutandis. 6. All the Drawing Officers / Controlling Officers / Chief Controlling Officers / Heads of Departments should adhere to the following time schedule for effecting the reconciliation of accounts: (i) All the Drawing Officers of respective Departments should reconcile their departmental figures of receipts and expenditure with those of the Treasury figures and forward the statements of receipts and expenditure figures duly reconciled to the concerned Controlling Officers invariably by the 10th of the following month.

After completion of reconciliation, he should issue a reconciliation certificate not later than the 15th of the 3rd following month. 7. A flow chart showing the various stages involved from the presentation of bills by Drawing and Disbursing Officers and the final stage of submission of Certificate of Reconciliation by the Chief Controlling / Controlling Officers, the Registers / Records to be maintained, returns to be forwarded along with the due dates is also indicated in the Annexure. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.49 Chapter – II 8. VLC Sections In case of any difficulty in obtaining the voucher no. and date of encashment of the bill in the Register of Bills in Form No. KFC 62-A by the Drawing Officers, at the Treasury, the Drawing Officers shall contact the Treasury Officer who should render necessary assistance to staff deputed by the Drawing Officers by furnishing relevant particulars. 9. In case of any difficulty experienced by the staff of Controlling Officers / Chief Controlling Officers / Heads of Departments deputed to Accountant General’s Office in getting the books of accounts / vouchers for reconciliation of figures of expenditure, the staff shall personally contact the Senior Accounts Office I or the Senior Deputy Accountant General (Accounts). 10. In order to improve the quality and effectiveness of reconciliation and prompt and timely completion of reconciliation, the Internal Financial Advisors of the Administrative Departments are nominated as the Nodal Officers to monitor the work. The Internal Financial Advisors should bestow their personal attention and see that the work is completed as per the prescribed time schedule. The list of defaulting Controlling Officers under their respective departments should be sent to Finance Department by 30th of every month.

Such stop payment order will be withdrawn only after the reconciliation is completed and the certificates are forwarded to the Accountant General. This step is contemplated as a last measure in the interest of proper accounting of Public Money and with a view to prevent misappropriations and defalcations. 13. This O.M. and the procedure elaborated herein are only a reiteration of the relevant provisions contained in KFC which cast specific duties on all officers who incur or control expenditure of Public Funds. 14. All Heads of Departments are requested to bring this to the notice of sub-ordinate officers and impress on them the necessity to complete the reconciliation in time. This will enable departments to avoid stop payment orders and also adverse comments in audit and before the PAC. (Authority O.M.

The Data Base of Government transactions originated and maintained in the ‘Treasury Net work Management Center [TNMC]’ under the Administrative Control of the Director of Treasuries in Karnataka. For the sake of ensuring accuracy of two sets of accounts maintained [i.e., the one in this Office & the other one at TNMC], the Data Base in the TNMC too, has to be modified to the extent of misclassifications pointed out and corrected in this office. In order to achieve this object the Grant Controlling Officer may be instructed to verify the misclassifications pointed out by this office, with the Data Base at TNMC and arrange for immediate corrections in the accounts on hand. These corrections in the accounts should be carried out by the Grant Controlling Authority and the Joint Director of Treasuries heading the TNMC. The TNMC should send a separate Consolidated Transfer Entry Schedule for Receipts & Payments under each Major Head of Account, for each month starting from April which will be due by 31st of July. In respect of March Accounts, the Consolidated Transfer Entry Schedule for Receipts & Payments, under each Major Head of Account should be submitted by the TNMC by 30th of June each year. The VLC Section should deal with the processing rectification of misclassifications in the following manner. List out all misclassifications separately for each Major Head of Account, under each treasury, giving the full details of the Drawing Officer, for each month. The list of misclassifications should be signed by the Assistant Accounts officer after due verification. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.55 Chapter – II VLC Sections The vouchers and challans pertaining to misclassifications should be separated and retained in the Section for possible scrutiny or verification by the Departmental Officers. The List of misclassifications, with a standard form of covering letter, to the Chief Grant Controlling officer should be submitted for approval of the Branch officer. The letter with the list after getting the approval of the Branch Officer should then be dispatched to the Chief Grant Controlling Officer with the advance copy to the TNMC. The fact of communication of Observations should be noted at the closing and submission of the Register of Check of Classification with the attestation of the AAO. The TNMC on the expressed authority of the Chief Grant Controlling Officer should prepare the Transfer Entries Schedules and incorporate them in the accounts on hand communicate the same to this office. The fact of such adjustment Transfer Entry schedules should also be noted in the Register of Check of Classification with the attestation of the AAO, against the original observation, duly giving details of extent of adjustments. Note: The temporarily retained vouchers along with the Transfer Entry schedules should then be transmitted separately to CAP Sections through the Current Records Section by the end of the following month in which the adjustment entries are carried out by the Treasury NMC. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.56 Chapter – II 2.27 VLC Sections Transmission of Vouchers after Compilation Immediately after the compilation of accounts for the month, the vouchers should be transferred to the various sections before 22nd of the following month. Compensation Vouchers against land awards should be listed out and forwarded to TM Section. A note in red ink may be made in the relevant List of Payments in respect of these vouchers to indicate that they have been sent to TM Section. (Authority: O.O. No. TM/G/63 dated 30.10.1985 and O.O.

The method of posting and Proof sheets as explained in Article 1.16 and 1.17 of Account Code for Accountant General is being done in the VLC module. In regard to the transactions of the Public Works Department, and the Department of Industries Projects, the accounts of which, arise partly through the treasury accounts and partly through the departmental Cash Accounts, the mode of preparation of the Consolidated Abstract is slightly different as explained in the succeeding sub-paragraphs – 2.28.2 Consolidated Abstract of Public Works Transactions This abstract should be in the same form as the Consolidated Abstract for other departments. It should cover all the transactions of the Public Works Department, whether arising through the Treasury Accounts or through the Divisional Accounts. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.57 Chapter – II Note: VLC Sections The Consolidated Abstract of Works Division is generated by the system once the Postings are completed by the Accountant. 2.28.3 Consolidated Abstract of 2852 Industries, Government Industrial /Commercial Undertakings This abstract should be similar to the Consolidated Abstract of Public Works transactions. It should cover all the transactions of the Department, whether arising through the treasury accounts or through the accounts rendered by the Commercial Departments and Undertakings. 2.28.4 The abstract should be maintained by VLC VII Section. The figures appearing in Cash Account and LOP will be entered in the ‘system’ by the Accountant of VLC VII section in the VLC Module and in the Government Commercial Undertaking within the VLC Module. On completion of the data entry, the Classified and Consolidated Abstract of the Government Commercial Undertaking is generated by the Module without human intervention. Note: (1) A single Consolidated Abstract in respect of all the Government Commercial Undertaking irrespective of the holding is generated. Note: (2) With the Introduction of withdrawal of Cheque Drawing Authority with effect from 1/4/2008 (Detailed orders are reproduced Vide Annexure VII) the transactions in respect of the Government Commercial Undertaking will be brought under the purview of Treasury Accounts wherein the Budget Provisions will be monitored by the Treasury Officer concerned. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.58 Chapter – II 2.29 VLC Sections Review of Consolidated Abstract As laid down in Article 1.18 of the Account Code for Accountant General the Section Officer / Assistant Accounts Officer passing the abstract should scrutinize the Consolidated Abstract intelligently to see whether there are any misclassifications or mis-posting in the VLC Work Station on-line, before they are generated. If any doubt arises, he should carry out the necessary scrutiny with reference to the details of the doubtful item and should satisfy himself, the correctness of the figures before submission to the Branch Officer in charge. 2.30 Review of Outstanding Balances 2.30.1 The Section Officer / and the Branch Officer should exercise special care and satisfy themselves inter alia: ¾ That the clearance of the suspense items is effected in the accounts of the month to which the transactions relate ¾ That, in no case, the outstanding balance is allowed to remain unadjusted for more than a month. 2.30.2 A report on un-cleared items of over one month, if any, should be sent by each VLC Section to TM Section not latter than 10th of the Second Month, so as to furnish a consolidated Report on un-cleared items, to Book Section on the 15th of the second following month. A combined DAA Broadsheet Report can be generated through TM Module in the system. 2.30.3 The Book II Section should submit a Note on review of the outstanding DAA items to the DAG (Accounts & VLC) on the 20th of second following month. VLC Sections should see to that outstanding items under DAA are invariably cleared at the time of closing March (final) Accounts. Where such clearance is not possible for justifiable reasons, prior permission MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.59 Chapter – II VLC Sections of the DAG(Accounts & VLC) should be obtained by individual Section, for the retention of such items under ‘Suspense head’ even after the closure of March (final) Accounts.

MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.62 Chapter – III Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section CHAPTER – III PROCEDURE APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENT TRANSACTION ARISING IN SECTION 3.1 Introductory 3.1.1 VLC Sections are responsible for booking the transactions relating to Revenue Receipts and Service Payments under the appropriate Heads of Account and transferring the transaction under Debt, Deposit and Remittance Heads which arise through the Treasury Schedules or Suspense Slips dealtwith by them. In respect of all such transactions, the VLC Sections should adjust all Suspense Slips, Transfer Entries initiated by originating VLC Sections, by incorporating them in the relevant Departmental Classified Abstracts, even though one side adjustment of the Transfer Entry/suspense slips affects a Debt, Deposit or Remittance Head. This arrangement not only avoids delay in accepting but also obviates the need for the operation of Departmental Suspense Heads when items have to be transferred from Revenue / Service / Capita Heads to Debt, Deposit or Remittance Heads. The different categories of transfer transactions that the sections would come across and the procedure to be followed in each type of cases are explained in this chapter. 3.1.2 Adjustment of transactions through Suspense Slips The Suspense Slips are prepared in the manner laid down vide paragraph 5.15.1 of M.S.O. (A&E) in VLC Sections. They are prepared by the compilers, other than the compiler of the abstract of the Department or Major Head concerned, and passed on to the compiler for entry in the Register of Suspense Slips and Issue. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.63 Chapter – III 3.1.3 Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section The amount and other particulars of Suspense Slip should be entered in a Register of Suspense Slips issued, called the ‘Outward Suspense Slips Register’ [Form 4 M.S.O. (A&E)] in duplicate. The procedure prescribed in paragraph 5.15.2 of M.S.O. (A&E) should be followed in the maintenance of this Register. It is convenient, if separate portions of the Registers are set apart, for the issue of Suspense Slips relating to each DAA Suspense Head. Note 1: The outward suspense slip register should be kept by the sections issuing the slips. Two such Registers should be kept separately, one for the receipts and the other for payments. Note 2: The duty of preparing the suspense slips devolves on the accountant in the VLC Section concerned whenever the necessity for the transfer is noticed by the compiler. A single Suspense Slip Register should be maintained in each VLC Section so as to have a single running number in respect of all the Suspense Slips issued during a year. Note 3: Suspense Slips should never be issued for minus amounts. Refund of revenue should be transferred as ‘debits’ only and recoveries of expenditure as ‘credit’. 3.1.4 In the receiving Section, the compiler of the section to which the Suspense Slips is sent should receive it immediately. Unless the Slip is wrongly sent to the section, it should not be rejected, merely because of the inherent defects in the supporting vouchers or the voucher itself is wanting. The Suspense Slip should be received and the amount adjusted. Note: In all cases where vouchers are wanting, the copy of the letter addressed to the Treasury / Departmental Officer by the transferring section calling for the voucher, should be enclosed to the suspense slip to enable the adjusting section to pursue the correspondence thereafter. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.64 Chapter – III 3.1.5 Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section The last date for transmission of these Suspense Slips is the 11th of the month following that to which the accounts relate. 3.1.6 On the 12th of the month, the Accountant should strike totals in the money columns in the Outward Suspense Slip Register, detach the top copy from each portion of the Register and forward it to the section maintaining the Classified Abstract relating to the respective Departmental Suspense Head, in order to secure the certificate prescribed in the form. When the copy is received back with the prescribed certificate, it should be pasted on to the corresponding carbon copy in the Outward Suspense Slip Register. 3.1.7 The Section Officer / Assistant Accounts Officer of the section to which the Outward Suspense Slip Register relates should see that – the certificate regarding the adjustment of the transactions is received before the 23rd of the month, cases of delay in response or incomplete response are immediately brought to the notice of the Branch Officer for appropriate action, which he may consider necessary, the total amount of Suspense Slips issued to each section during the month as worked out in the register tally with the total debit or credit raised under the relevant Departmental Suspense Head in his/her Classified or Departmental Abstract. 3.1.8 A register of ‘Suspense Slips’ received which may be known as ‘Inward Suspense Slips Register’ should be maintained in Form 4-A – M.S.O. (T) by the sections which receive the Suspense Slips and the amount and other particulars of such Suspense Slips received and entered in this Register. It should be ensured that all the Suspense Slips received in the section during the month are fully adjusted in the accounts in hand and the register should MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.65 Chapter – III Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section be submitted to the Branch Officer along with the monthly accounts, with the certificate as prescribed on the forms with the signature of the Section Officer / Assistant Accounts Officer of the receiving section. Items which could not be adjusted in the same month should be abstracted in the Register indicating reasons for their non-adjustment and steps taken for their clearance. The closing abstract should be prepared in the following formClosing Abstract for the month of.................. Sl.No Particulars 1. Opening Balance of unadjusted items: 2. Additions during the month 3. Total 4. Clearance during the month 5. Items still pending adjustment Amount No. of Items Explanation for the outstanding items 3.1.9 The following special procedure should be followed for March (final) transactions: ¾ In the case of debits/credits proposed to be included in March (final) Accounts and under “DAA Suspense”, the sections compiling the Departmental Abstract should obtain the prior concurrence of the responding Sections concerned, for classifying them under that “DAA Suspense Head”. For this purpose, before closing the Departmental Abstracts, they should ensure that the consolidated list of Suspense Slips in Form 4 M.S.O (T) is invariably received back from the VLC Section concerned with its certificate of adjustment. The concerned VLC Section should, immediately on receipt of a suspense slip take action to clear the Suspense Head by transferring them to the final heads, in the March (Final) Account itself. Where such adjustment MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.66 Chapter – III Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section under the final head cannot be done immediately, for justifiable reasons, the section should nevertheless accept the Suspense Slip and obtain orders of the DAG for retaining the item under Suspense. ¾ As and when the Abstracts for March (Final) transactions are processed in the computers, the Book Section should check the transactions appearing under the DAA Suspense Heads. An extract should be sent by Book section to the VLC Sections concerned on the day following the date of closing of the last Abstract in the VLC Work Station. The Sections should examine the extracts to see whether all the individual items constituting closing balances, are covered by prior approval of the Group Officer, and if there are any items not covered by the approval of the Group Officer, immediate action should be taken to obtain the approval of Group Officer duly putting-forth the justification for its continuance to the next year. On the due date prescribed by Book Section, the Branch Officers of all VLC Sections should furnish a certificate to the effect that prior permission of the Group Officer has been obtained for the retention of amount under DAA to the Book Section. ¾ However, if there are any items which are not covered by the approval of the Group Officer, and can be cleared such items should be cleared at once in concurrence with the VLC Work Station & the Book Section. ¾ The due dates prescribed by Book Section every year for transmitting Transfer Entries affecting Debt Heads / Classified Consolidated Abstracts for March (Final) Accounts and for closing of Abstracts should be scrupulously followed. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.67 Chapter – III Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section 3.2 Transactions in the Accounts of the Same Government 3.2.1 A Treasury Schedule may include a transaction which relate to another Department / Major Head or a Debt, Deposit or Remittance Head. Similarly, the accounts received from a Public Works or a Commercial Undertaking may also contain transactions which are adjustable finally in a Departmental Classified Abstract. In respect of the adjustments found necessary before the accounts of the month are closed in VLC Sections, the following procedure should be adopted for transferring such transactions to the appropriate heads. 3.2.2 Items Transferable to a Debt, Deposit or Remittance Head There are separate parts on the Receipts and Payments sides of the Departmental Classified Abstract for accommodating Debt, Deposit and Remittance Transactions arising through the treasury schedules. If in the course of compilation of the month’s transactions, it is noticed that transactions relating to Debt, Deposit or Remittance Heads are included under Revenue, Service or Capital heads in the treasury schedule, such amounts should be collected by the VLC Sections in the Revenue Schedule Compilation Sheet in Form I relating to Debt, Deposit and Remittance Heads for which they should be posted under the relevant Debt, Deposit or Remittance heads in the Classified Abstract. (vide para 3.1 supra). 3.2.3 Items Adjustable in another Departmental Classified Abstract The Credit / Debit which has to be accounted-for in another Departmental Classified Abstract should be classified under the relevant Departmental Suspense Head in its abstract by the originating section and the transaction communicated to the VLC Section concerned by means of a Suspense Slip in MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.68 Chapter – III Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section Form 3 M.S.O. (T). In the case of Debits, the vouchers or extracts of vouchers (where only part amounts are transferred) should also be sent along with the Suspense Slip to the adjusting section. 3.3 Items transferable from a Revenue or Service Head to a Debt, Deposit or Remittance Head 3.3.1 If the adjustments in the accounts are found necessary, after the Accounts for the month is closed, the corrections should be effected by means of Transfer Entry, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 1.19 to 1.21 of Account Code for Accountant General. As the classified abstract of each department contains separate parts for accommodating Debt, Deposit and Remittance transactions, the Transfer Entries should be incorporated in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ of the VLC Section itself. 3.3.2 The Transfer Entry must be prepared in Form A.O. 50 and submitted to the Section Officer /Branch Officer for approval. The particulars of the Transfer transaction must be entered in brief, with clear details in the Transfer Entry Number Book (Form AO 51) maintained by each VLC Section. The Transfer Entry should then be sent to the Section dealing-with the Debt head concerned, for acceptance, noting and return. 3.3.3 The Transfer Entries may be proposed by the Compiler (Accountant who proposes the Transfer Entry). All such Transfer Entries should be numbered serially for the year with a distinctive letter of the VLC Section. These numbers should also be entered in the respective Number Books. The number to be given to an entry received from another Section should be expressed as a fraction, the numerator of which should denote the number as given by the originating section and the denominator should show the number assigned to the entry in the Number Books of the receiving section. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.69 Chapter – III 3.3.4 Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section The Transfer Entries should be incorporated in the Departmental Classified Abstract through the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ to be maintained by the Compiler in the accounting section in Form AO 52. The accounting section, i.e. VLC Section is responsible to see that only those Transfer Entries which are included in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ and are accepted by the Responding Section. Article 7.12 of Account Code for Accountant General contain detailed instructions regarding the manner in which the Adjustment figures are to be taken from the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ to the Classified Abstract. 3.4 Items finally adjustable in another Departmental Classified Abstract The transfer of such items should also be effected by means of Transfer Entries. The amount to be transferred should be classified in the Transfer Entry under the Departmental Suspense Head relating to the Departmental Abstract in which the items are finally adjustable. In addition to a Transfer Entry, a Suspense Slip as explained in paragraphs 3.2 and 3.3.4 should also be prepared simultaneously. The Suspense Slip should be entered in the Outward Suspense Slip Register as in other cases, vide paragraph 3.2 supra. The Transfer Entry with the Suspense Slip should then be sent to the section which maintains the Departmental Classified Abstract in which the item is to be finally adjusted, for acceptance. That Responding Section should retain the Suspense Slip and return the Transfer Entry with its acceptance after noting thereupon the Inwards TE Number and date. When the Transfer entry is received back with acceptance, it should be entered in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ of the originating section. The manner, in which the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ should be posted, totaled etc., is set out in detail vide Article 7.12 of Account Code for Accountant General. The section retaining the Suspense Slip should enter it, in the Inward MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.70 Chapter – III Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section Suspense Slip Register and deal-with, in the manner indicated in paragraph 2.7 or 2.12. 3.5 Items Transferable from one Head to another within a Major Head or between Major Heads in the same Departmental Classified Abstract In these cases also, a Transfer Entry has to be prepared in Form A.O. 50. After approval, by the Section Officer / Branch Officer, the Transfer Entry should be entered in the Transfer Entry Number Book (Form A.O. 51) and then included in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ from which the figure should pass into the Departmental Classified Abstract. 3.6 Transfer of items between two heads (other than Departmental Suspense Heads) in Debt, Deposit and Remittance Section 3.6.1 Adjustments found necessary after the Accounts of the month are closed in Other Sections, the Transfer Entries proposed by a Loans or Deposit Section should be got noted by the Responding Section concerned and sent to the Book Section. The Book Section should include the Transfer Entry in its ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ (Form A.O. 52). The Transfer Entries proposed by the sections maintaining Broad sheets should, however, be incorporated in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’s maintained by them. Detailed instructions as to how the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ should be maintained and closed are contained in Article 7.12 of Account Code for Accountant General. Article 7.5(b) of the Account Code for Accountant General prescribed the procedure to be followed as to how the rectification of misclassifications is to be made in the Accounts. For effecting rectification of misclassification in the DDR Heads of accounts, for which the AG (A&E) is responsible for maintaining the detailed accounts, no Alteration MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.71 Chapter – III Procedure applicable to adjustment transaction arising in Section Memo is required to be issued by the Treasuries. Alteration Memo is necessary, only when the treasuries themselves have pointed out the misclassifications and proposed rectification, after the accounts of the month are closed and dispatched to the AG (A&E). 3.6.2 Transfer of items from a Debt, Deposit and Remittance Head to a Revenue Service or Capital Head In the course of scrutiny of challans/vouchers relating to (a)the Schedule of Debt, Deposit & Remittance Heads and (b) the Loans, the Responding Section concerned may come across items which have to be accounted for under a Revenue, Service or Capital Head of Account. In all such cases, the adjustment should be effected by a Transfer Entry, as the account concerned for the month would have been closed before scrutiny of these transactions. The items should be classified in the Transfer Entry under the ‘Departmental Suspense Head’ relating to the Department or Major Head under which they are finally adjustable. The Transfer Entry together with a Suspense Slip furnishing necessary particulars of the transactions should be sent to the section which maintains the relevant Departmental Classified Abstract, for acceptance. The responding section should retain the Suspense Slip and return the Transfer Entry with acceptance to the originating section. The Transfer Entry should thereafter be sent to Book Section where it should be incorporated in the Detail Book through the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ of that section. The Transfer Entries proposed by the sections maintaining Departmental Abstracts, should, however, be incorporated in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ maintained by them.

Section. As this type of Transfer Entries are to be booked in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ of Book Section, the T.E. after noting from AC Section, should be sent to Book Section. 3.8 March Supplementary Accounts All adjustments for the March (Supplementary) Accounts including transactions which would normally be incorporated through the Suspense Slips should be made only by means of Transfer Entries. In these Transfer Entries, the items should be classified directly under final Revenue, Service, Capital, Heads of accounts, in the same manner prescribed for incorporation of Journal Entries. The section proposing the Transfer Entry, wherein a head of account relating to another Section is involved, should get the classification checked by the Section Officer of that section. The DAA head should be operated upon only for transferring the amounts already classified under such suspense heads to the final heads concerned. The section which operates the suspense head should specifically state so in the Transfer Entry. The Transfer Entries after scrutiny by AAD and Book Sections should be submitted to the Accountant General (A&E) for approval through the Group Officer and thereafter sent to Book Section. Book Section should post them in the ‘Combined Transfer Ledger and Abstract’ for the State as a whole and submit the Abstract to the Branch Officer for approval.

These duties were performed by Departmental Compilation Central Sections constituted for the purpose. These sections have been abolished with effect from the accounts for the month of April 1988. Consequently the items of work dealt-with by this DCC Sections have been entrusted to the respective [then known as DC Sections] VLC Sections and TM Section. The VLC Section and T.M. Section are responsible for the smooth disposal of the following items of work and also for maintenance of relevant registers and records. The VLC Section should attend to the following items of work. 5.2 Maintenance of AC Bills Register and watching the receipt of NDC Bills Abstract Contingent Bills Under rule 36 of the Manual of Contingent Expenditure 1958, the Controlling and Disbursing Officers are permitted to draw contingent charges required for immediate disbursement by presenting AC bills, from the treasury subject to rendering detailed contingent bills to their Controlling Officers for counter signature and transmission to the Accountant General. The procedure of drawing AC bills and their final settlement is prescribed in rules 36 to 46 of the Manual and instructions issued by Government of Karnataka in OM and MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.106 Chapter – V Miscellaneous Circular OM No. FD 7 TAR 97 dated 16th October 1998 and Circular No. FD 2 TTC 97 dated 28th January 1999. When an advance to be drawn on an AC bill exceeds Rs.500/- the sanction of the Controlling Officer shall be obtained and attached to the bill. Controlling Officers shall ensure that no amounts are drawn from treasury unless required for immediate disbursement and drawal as sums in excess or without maturity claims is strictly prohibited. If due to unforeseen causes, the advance drawn cannot be disbursed within a day or two, the amount or unspent part of it shall be refunded to the treasury forthwith. The Drawing and Disbursing Officers shall forward detailed contingent bills to their Controlling Officers before the closure of the first week following the month to which the bill relates so that these bills are sent to the Accountant General before 15th at the latest by the Controlling Officers. If any delay is anticipated in rendering detailed contingent bills, extension of time shall be sought from the Accountant General. Express permission of Government shall be obtained for drawal of amounts exceeding Rs.1.00 lakh on a single AC bill. The Comptroller and Auditor General of India in his Report (Civil) has however observed that there are irregularities in drawal of AC bills like AC bills for payment of bonus, AC bills drawn and kept in PD Account, drawal of funds on AC bills in excess of requirements, drawal of funds in excess of limits prescribed, non-submission of detailed contingent bills, funds drawn on AC bill kept in savings bank account, non-remittance/delay in remittance of unspent amounts and even mis-appropriation of amounts drawn on AC bills. Proposals seeking such permission shall be accompanied by detailed justification. The audit observations depict that while the Drawing and Disbursing Officers are not strictly adhering to the provisions of the rules and instructions in drawal and settlement of amounts drawn on AC bills, the Controlling Officers are also not ensuring timely rendition of detailed contingent bills by the Drawing and MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.107 Chapter – V Miscellaneous Disbursing Officers in complete form and remittance of unspent balances. Consequently huge amounts drawn on AC bills are pending settlement in the departments and by the Accountant General. In order to streamline the procedure for accepting the submission of NDC bills and adjustment of AC bills, Government has decided that the NDC bills after counter signature by the Controlling Officers shall be routed through the Treasuries. The NDC bills shall be linked to the outstanding AC bills.

However, there should be only one Detailed Contingent Bill for a month furnishing details for the total amount drawn on Abstract Contingent Bills during that month. As per the revised procedure prescribed in Government Order No. FD 2 TFC 2004 dated 09.09.2004, each NDC bill should be linked to original A.C. Bill to be routed through Treasuries. Hence Drawing Officers should prepare separate NDC bill for each Abstract Contingent bill presented to the Treasury. (b) Under Rule 37 (b) (3) if MCF, it is prescribed that all Heads of offices authorised to draw on Abstract Contingent bills should forward their Detailed Contingent bill to their countersigning officers before the closure of first week of the following month to which the bill relates so that all the Detailed Contingent Bills may be sent to the Accountant General before the 15th of the month following that to which they relate at the latest. As per the revised MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.109 Chapter – V Miscellaneous procedure prescribed in Government Order No. FD 2 TFC 2004 dated 09.09.2004, the NDC bills after countersignature by the Controlling Officers should be routed through the Treasuries for submission to the Accountant General. In view of this the NDC bills after countersignature may be returned to the respective Drawing and Disbursing Officers who should present the same in respective Treasuries from where A.C. Bills were drawn within one month of drawal of A.C. Bills. While submitting NDC Bills to the Treasury, the Drawing and Disbursing Offices should use the revised MCE Form 3 (C.T.S. 12) enclosed to this Government Order and attach official token in KTC 65 A issued to them for each NDC Bill as in the case of submission of ‘Nil’ bill. (c) Any unspent money drawn on A.C. Bill or the advance not expended should be remitted back to Government account under relevant head of account. There is no provision to adjust such amounts in future A.C. Bills under any circumstances. (d) The treasuries shall take action to forward the NDC Bills, presented by the Drawing and Disbursing Offices to the Accountant General’s Office along with monthly account with a supporting schedule indicating A.C.

MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.112 Chapter – V 5.5 Miscellaneous Reintroduction of noting of AC & NDC Bill Register Consequent on the issue of Government Order No. FD 02 TFC 04 Dated 9.9.2004 streamlining the accounting procedure and submission of NDC Bills through Treasuries for effective control, the issue of noting of AC Bills and eventual linking of the same with NDC Bills was dispensed with effect from 1.4.2005. Government Vide Order No. FD 28 TCE 2006 dated 17.5.2006, have further streamlined the procedure effective from 1.4.2006 in regard to submission of NDC Bills and have required Treasuries to take action to forward the NDC Bills presented by the DDOs to the Accountant General’s Office along with monthly accounts with a supporting schedule indicating AC Bill amount and NDC bill in support of AC Bill. Also, VLC sections are required to exercise the checks prescribed in Para 5.26.1 and 5.26.2 of Manual of Standing Orders (A&E) Vol- I in regard to AC Bills and NDC Bills. In view of this, it has been decided to reintroduce the system of noting of AC Bills by the VLC Sections and eventual linking of NDC Bills with the outstanding AC Bills. VLC Sections are therefore directed to follow the below mentioned procedure in this regard. To capture the data in regard to AC Bills received with the monthly accounts on the system starting with the accounting month of November 2006. To exercise checks detailed in Para 5.26.1 and 5.26.2 of Manual of Standing Orders (A&E) Vol I in scrutinizing the AC Bills and NDC Bills. To Link the NDC Bills received with the monthly accounts to the outstanding AC Bills. To furnish details of AC Bills and NDC Bills to TM Section along with monthly Reports. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.113 Chapter – V Miscellaneous To capture existing available data for the period 1.4.2005 to 31.10.2006 regarding AC Bills and NDC Bills on the system by 31.3.2007 and report to TM Section by 10.4.2007. To capture entire data of outstanding AC Bills for the period upto 31.3.2005 on the system in Excel Format with assistance from VLC(C) by 31.3.2007 and furnish information to TM by 10.4.2007. (Authority: TM/B/2006-2007/42 TM/D/2006-2007/11 dated 29.01.2007) 5.6 Watching of Detailed Contingent Bills 5.6.1 For watching the disposal of ‘Detailed Contingent Bills’ all VLC Sections should maintain a Register in the format shown below. Separate pages should be allocated for each District under each Major Head of Account and the Detailed Contingent Bills received should be diarised District-wise. An index showing the details and pages allotted for each district should be prepared in the first page of the Detailed Contingent Bill Register. 5.6.2 Remarks Dated Initials of the Acctt/ AAO Month to which D.C. bill relates Designation of Drawing Officer Item (month) in objection book Adjustment particulars Amount Initials of the Accountant Amount of the D.C. bill No. & Date of forwarding Memo of the Controlling Officer Designation of the Controlling Officer Sectional Diary No. Form of Detailed Contingent Bill Register It should be seen that the Detailed Contingent Bills bear the prescribed certificates duly signed by the Drawing and Controlling MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.114 Chapter – V Miscellaneous Authorities. It should also be seen that the total amount of the bills agrees with the total of the abstract bills drawn during the month, differences being noted for recovery. The Headquarters Office has laid down the following functions to be performed in respect of Abstract / Detailed Contingent Bills to be followed by the office of the AG (A&E) [Para 5.26.1 of MSO (A&E)] That the A.C. bill has been drawn by an Officer who has been authorized to draw money on A.C. Bills. All A.C. Bills drawn by the Drawing Officers are to be noted in Objection Books to be maintained for watching D.C. Bills Items noted above are to be adjusted after exercising the checks to see o Whether the D.C. Bills are received in all cases and sub-vouchers (if any) required to be submitted to Audit have been enclosed to D.C. Bills. [Para 5.26.2 of MSO (A&E)] o Whether the DC bills are in proper form and the classification is correctly recorded thereon. o Whether the certificates, if any, required under the Financial Rules of the Government concerned are recorded. o Whether the DC bill is duly countersigned by the appropriate authority as required under relevant rules of State Government. o Whether the charges included in the D.C. Bills cover the amounts drawn on A.C. bills and are classified accordingly. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.115 Chapter – V Miscellaneous The differences or disallowances should be noted for recovery and adjustments on account of misclassification should be made, (Authority: Headquarters Letter No. 126-A/cs/II/56-86, dated 12.2.1987) 5.6.3 The following classifications also were given by the Headquarters in respect of implementation of above mentioned functions: An accountant cannot absolve himself from the responsibility of ensuring that the advance on A.C. bill has been drawn by the Officers authorized in that behalf and that the D.C. Bills have been countersigned by the competent authority. Watching the receipt of sub-vouchers is an accounting work and not auditorial function. The recording / attaching of prescribed certificates, if any, on the vouchers make them complete. Hence, it is the duty of Accountant to see that the voucher is complete in all respects. To examine whether the certificate is correct, complete and in order is not the duty of Accountant. These aspects are to be examined in Audit. As regards item 6 of sub-para (1) it is clarified that it is the duty of Accountant to see that a particular D.C. Bill is in support of a particular A.C. bill and the classification recorded on the D.C. Bill corresponds to the classification recorded on the A.C. Bill. Difference or disallowance allowed by the Controlling Officers from a D.C. Bill is to be noted and watched through Objection Books by the A.G. (A&E) as it is an accounting function and not auditorial work. A few Accountants General informed that their State Governments are reluctant to modify their financial rules as required vide Headquarters MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.116 Chapter – V Miscellaneous circular dated 22.5.85 and consequently, the D.C. Bills are being received in a few A.G.s Offices with the connected sub-vouchers. In view of this, provision has been made in Headquarters Circular dated 12.2.1987 that A.G. (A&E) would watch the receipt of sub-vouchers (if any) along with the D.C. Bills. (Authority: Headquarters Letter No. 1064-AC II/56-86 dated 7.9.1987) 5.6.4 The payee’s receipts and sub-vouchers which should normally accompany the Detailed Contingent Bill need not be enclosed to the bill. Only a detailed statement of expenditure and challans for refund of balances, if any, should accompany the D.C. Bill after signature by the Countersigning Officer. This procedure will take effect from 7.10.1986. (Authority: H.Q Letter No. 808-Accts.II/58-85(Cir No.22- Accts.II/1985 dated 22.5.1985) 5.7 5.7.1 Secret Service Expenditure Secret Service Expenditure in the nature of advance and are drawn on Abstract Contingent Bills. However, unlike other A.C. Bill, the amounts of Secret Service Expenditure drawn on Abstract Contingent Bills need not be noted in objection books, as no detailed bills will be received. All these A.C. Bills should be noted in a separate register, separate folios to be earmarked for each Controlling Officer / Officers empowered to audit in the Department, under each Head of Account. (Authority: HQ’s Lr. No. 1200-TAII/98-73dated 23.7.1974) 5.7.2 In place of Detailed Bill, the Accountant should watch receipt of an annual certificate from the Controlling Officer in the proforma indicated in sub-Para (iii) below and note the same in the register against the relevant MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.117 Chapter – V Miscellaneous items of expenditure and retain the same in the section and are required to be produced to Audit as and when called for. (Authority: HQ’s Lr. No. 240-TA I/83-84 (Cir.

Starting from the monthly accounts for December 2006, VLC Sections may capture the data regarding GIA Vouchers electronically. Sections may maintain the Grant-in-aid Register manually as well as electronically for the year 20062007. From December 2006 Accounts onwards, the reports on completion of GIA Vouchers should be submitted within 15 days after the completion of Monthly Accounts. This may be noted in the Calendar of Returns of the Sections.

In cases of conditional grants, a formal utilization certificate about the proper utilization of the grant from the administrative, technical and financial point of view should be furnished to the Accountant General (A&E) by the sanctioning authorities. Therefore, the receipt of utilization certificates in the following circumstances in cases where there is specific instructions to Grantee, from the Sanctioning Authority, for submission of Utilization Certificate to AG(A&E), in cases where there is specific instructions, enabling the Office of the AG (C&CA) for conducting the Audit of Accounts relating to the Grantee, Material and equipment supplied to the grantee by way of aid should be treated as GIA and accounted-for on the same lines. The sanctioning authority has to satisfy itself in such cases, that the grant has been applied for the purpose for which it was intended. Utilization Certificate should, therefore, is insisted upon in all cases. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.119 Chapter – V Miscellaneous should be watched and the Utilization Certificates are noted in the register as and when received. In respect of Grants given by the Central Government to the State Government: o Utilization Certificates need not be furnished by the Ministries/Departments of the Central Government. o Where the expenditure out of the Central grant is incurred by the State Government direct, Utilization Certificates need not be furnished. o in cases where the Grants are un-conditional and are recurring in nature, such as maintenance grants given to local bodies to satisfy the provisions of certain Acts of the State Government like ZP, TP & GP Acts Utilization Certificates need not be furnished. o Where such expenditure is incurred by the State Government through local bodies or private institutions, utilization should be furnished by the State Governments concerned. o In cases of local bodies, Public or Quasi public bodies where the audit is conducted by an office not subordinate to CAG of India, a certificate regarding the grants having been utilized on the objects for which it was sanctioned and in accordance with the conditions attaching to the grant, based on that officers’ audit may be accepted from the administrative Government authority concerned. 5.9.3 Utilization Certificate should be called-for soon after the completion of 18 months from the date of sanction of grant-in-aid, vide Article 161 (b) (5) of KFC 1958.

Kinds of check exercised: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Signature Designation. 5.11 Raising and pursuance of Objections 5.11.1 Chapter 20 of MSO (A&E) contained detailed instructions for the raising and pursuit of objections. The following principles should be observed MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.123 Chapter – V Miscellaneous in the matter of enforcing responsibility for the accuracy and regularity of the accounts of the executive Government. In the case of ordinary inaccuracies or carelessness in the preparation of bills etc., not only should objection be followed up and disposed off but also the Head of the Office should be apprised of the state of affairs by a special letter substantiating the charge of carelessness and inaccuracy by sufficient evidence. A letter of this kind would have a very different effect from the ordinary routing of objections or other prescribed statements; if it were not attended to the matter can be carried to the higher authority. The cases of deliberate evasion of account rules and the supply of misleading information. Any persistent disregard of the rules, especially, if it seems to indicate, or is likely to land to, fraud should be brought to the notice of the superior authority concerned,. Any cases of irregular payments made by the Treasury Officers at the specific request of the administrative authorities should be reported to the Finance Department of Government immediately. 5.11.2 Objections relating to State Plan and Centrally Sponsored Schemes Whenever objections relating to State Plan, Centrally Sponsored Schemes are taken, in addition to noting a reference to voucher number date of payment, the Drawing Officer, the detailed head of account and whether the expenditure is Plan or Non-plan should also be noted against individual objection in the column “Nature of the Items & Objections.” MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.124 Chapter – V Miscellaneous Further at the time of copying the outstanding items in the Objection books into the new volumes, details regarding the schemes to which each objection pertains, should be copied in respect of outstanding objections relating to State Plan, Centrally Sponsored Schemes. Branch Officers / Section officers should ensure at the time of closing the Objection Books that the above instructions are followed scrupulously. 5.11.3 Un-necessary and Meticulous Objections The detailed contingent bills in adjustment of Abstract Contingent Bills, kept under objection, will be submitted in the present form as proof of adjustment of amounts drawn on AC Bills. However, sub-vouchers and payees’ receipts need not be sent the AG office. These will be retained by the Drawing Officers / Controlling Officers till their preservation period is over. However, all the objections raised in regard to want of sub-vouchers and payees receipts are to be pursued by the Accountants till their finality and subsequent settlement. 5.11.4 Waiving of Petty Objections It is to be remembered that the discretion vested in Officers by Para 20.10.1(a) & (b) of MSO (A&E) Vol-I should be freely exercised. The powers of waiver of objections delegated to Branch Officers should be freely exercised to weed-out petty, unimportant and non-recurring items of objections such as want of stamps in the voucher want of no stock certificate etc Cases which could be waived under the powers of the Group Officer (A/cs and VLC) or the AG (A&E) should be listed out periodically and put-up to the Group Officer for obtaining the orders for waiver. The amounts placed under objection for want of DC Bill, Payees receipts etc., should be treated as really objectionable after the end of the second month following that to which they MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.125 Chapter – V Miscellaneous relate. Only then, should reminder be issued calling for the documents in regard to outstanding items. 5.11.5 Maintenance of Objection Books Each accountant in VLC Section should maintain an ‘Objection Book’ in Form M.S.O. (T) 127 and an ‘Adjustment Register’ in Form M.S.O. (T) 128 and deal with correspondence in connection with the items entered therein and is responsible for their adjustment. ¾ The Audit objections which were outstanding as on 29.2.1984 should be pursued by the Audit Office and the rest of the items have to be pursued by this Office. Therefore, the ‘Objection Book’s of the erstwhile D.A. Sections have to be reviewed and the objections of auditorial nature are to be segregated and listed. Such lists have to be sent to the Accountant General, Audit. The remaining objections have to be pursued by the VLC Section. ¾ Entry of an objection in the Objection Book or Objection Statement should be fully descriptive, so that ordinarily there should be no need to refer to the original documents again. The following particulars should be noted in cases of all objections raised during scrutiny of accounts: Detailed head of account –giving full accounts classification, Plan / non-plan. Voucher number and date of drawal. Purpose for which the amount kept under objection [purpose mentioned in the bill should clearly and completely be copied in to the Objection Book] MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.126 Chapter – V Miscellaneous Full designation of Drawing Officer. ¾ All items noted in the Objection Book should be attested by the Section Officer in token of verification of the correctness of the particulars. The Objection Book for the month should be closed by the 10th of the Second succeeding month and submitted to Branch Officer. ¾ The AC bills register should be reviewed and the items for which NDC bills not received till the end of the second month are entered in ‘Objection Book’. The receipt of NDC bills should be watched through the ‘Objection Book’. ¾ After the close of the Financial Year, the outstanding items in the ‘Objection Book’ should be carried forward to a new ‘Objection Book’ and a certificate to the effect that all outstanding items have been so carried forward recorded in the new ‘Objection Book’ and the total agreed with the closing balance for March of the previous year. Note 1: In the case of ‘Objection Book’s in which the number of unsettled items are large, the above procedure may be relaxed under the orders of the Accountant General. In such cases, the outstanding items may be retained in the old ‘Objection Book’, which should be treated as subsidiary to the new ‘Objection Book’. The following points should, however, be borne in mind. The year-wise totals of outstanding items should be worked out and recorded in the abstract of objections after due check by the Section Officer. The outstanding items should be copied in a new ‘Objection Book’ once in three years so as to avoid the maintenance of more than three volumes of any objection book at any time. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.127 Chapter – V Miscellaneous The necessity for continuance of this relaxed procedure should be reviewed in April each year in the light of the number of unsettled items at the time and suitable proposals sent to T.M. Section through the Branch Officer. T.M. Section should examine the proposals and obtain the orders of DAG (Accounts) for continuance or otherwise. The ‘Objection Book’ should be closed regularly on the 8th of the second following month to which the accounts relate. Both the ‘Objection Book’ and the ‘Adjustment Register’ should be submitted to the Branch Officer who should scrutinize them carefully and ensure that the procedure prescribed in Chapter 20 of M.S.O. (A&E) is strictly followed. ¾ Each item of Adjustment must be initialed by the Section Officer both in the Objection Book and in the Adjustment Register. The Section Officer should at least once a month review the outstanding items in the Objection Book and action to be taken for the adjustment for the outstanding items. 5.11.6 Objections more than Six months Old After closing of Objection Book as mentioned in paragraphs supra, the items outstanding for more than six month should be posted in the six monthly register in Form M.S.O. (T) 286 as prescribed in para 863 M.S.O. (T) Vo. I. The Section office should review the Objection Book and the Six Monthly Register item by item in order to satisfy himself• That the action taken in respect of each item outstanding in the Objection Book is up-to-date. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.128 Chapter – V • Miscellaneous That suitable special action has been taken in respect of every outstanding item the adjustment of which has been duly delayed. Note: The clearance of objections should be vigorously pursued. It is not enough merely to issue a routine remainder every month or so. In cases of undue delay demi-official letters should be issued to the officers. • That the requirements of the paragraph 808 of M.S.O. (T) Vol. I have been complied with in the case of petty objections, and • That all items due to be transferred to the six monthly register of outstanding objections have been duly transferred. • The Section Officers should also attest the correctness of the entries in the Adjustment Register and the Abstract of Objections appended to the Objection Book (ladder). 5.11.7 Submission of Six Months Register The following instructions should be observed in connection with the review of objections outstanding for more than six months i.e. the six months register referred to in para 863 of M.S.O. (T) Vol. I. The period of six months should be calculated from the month of completion of scrutiny of accounts, and issue of objections are due i.e., if the objection is taken in the month of August in respect of June accounts the item will have to be included in the 6 months register in March of next year. In case of items outstanding for more than 6 months it is essential to fill in all the 12 columns of the Register. As each item is recorded in the 6 monthly register a summary of all previous correspondence relating MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.129 Chapter – V Miscellaneous to it should be recorded against the entry concerned, sufficient space being left for the purpose of entries therein regarding subsequent action taken which will no longer be recorded in the objection book. Separate Registers should be maintained for each unit in the section. The pages as well as the items in column I (for the whole year) of the register should be numbered. A very close attention to the objection book will be necessary to see that no objection required to be noted in them are omitted to be so noted, that prompt and vigorous action to settle finally the outstanding items of objection and objection statements is taken at the appropriate level, and that all the relevant rules and orders for the maintenance of objection book and pursuit of objections are followed up thoroughly and carefully. The month of adjustment should be noted in the registers against the items adjusted and the entry should be attested by the Section Officer. At the end of six months Register, a few pages should be set apart for furnishing an abstract of items outstanding, in the following form, at the time of submission of the register to the Branch Officer, Group Officer or the Accountant General.

If the PAO of the concerned Ministry in the Central Government has already passed necessary accounting entries on the Central Side, it is absolute on part of the State Government to exhibit the Material grants, as though received under 1601-Grants from Central Government. Therefore, the Sanction with Advice should be accounted in full, in the accounts of the State Government and the following further course of action is proposed for guidance: Immediately on receipt of Sanction orders with the Advice from the concerned PAO of the Ministry of Central Government, inform the Finance Department about the adjustments required to be made in the accounts under 1601- Grants from Central Government in the Accounts on Hand.

Some times, the transaction relating to Supply of material grants may also contain GOI Sanction for adjustment of Central Subsidy. These central subsidies are mere book adjustments as a result of withdrawal of subsidies which may have direct bearing on the pricing of the supplies. In such cases, irrespective of the year to which the supply relates, the adjustment of central subsidy should be effected in the accounts of the State Government in the year in which the sanction is made. The intimation about the adjustment should be given immediately, to the Finance Department and the Grant controlling authority of the concerned department. These adjustment entries, MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.157 Chapter - VI Treasury Miscellaneous Section based on GOI orders may help the Grant Controlling authorities for explaining the reasons for Excesses/savings in the Appropriation Accounts. 6.4.6 In certain cases, we may come across the instances, where-in the PAO of the concerned Ministry in the Central Government directly forward the Demand Draft to the Supplying Agency, on behalf of the State Government.

Heads of Departments / Controlling Officers are responsible to ensure that the expenditure whether voted or charged is kept strictly within the authorized grant or appropriation. To have effective control over expenditure, reconciliation of expenditure is a tool in the hands of the Controlling Officers, many of the Drawing Officers are paying very little or no attention for reconciling the Departmental figures with that of the Accountant General’s figures. Karnataka Financial Code 1958 and Karnataka Budget Manual prescribed the procedure to be followed and the formats to be used while reconciling the figures right from the stage of presentation of bills at the Treasury to the stage of forwarding the certificate of reconciliation to the Accountant General. 6.8.2 Advantages of Reconciliation The following are the few merits of prompt conduct of reconciliation of departmental Receipts & Expenditure: Reconciliation is an effective and efficient control of mechanism for watching the progress of expenditure and monitoring the expenditure.

MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.164 Chapter - VI 6.8.3 Treasury Miscellaneous Section Reconciliation of expenditure is a time bound programme.

(Authority: CAG’s, Cir.

Where the documents are required by the Investigating Officer they should be sent direct and in original to the Government Examiner of Questioned Documents, Simla, for getting his opinion. In all cases, orders of A.G. should be obtained. In the former case- it will be the duty of an officer nominated by the Accountant General to produce them in the court and to give any evidence. If the court chooses to employ powers of impounding under Section 104 or the Criminal Procedure Code, the documents will be left by that officer in the Court’s custody. As a matter of precaution and to provide for all eventualities, a Photostat / Xerox copy of the vouchers or other documents which are required to be produced in a Court should always be kept, vouchers may be sent by insured post to the personal address of the Presiding Officer of the Court, if such a course is considered necessary and desirable by the Accountant General. The return of the vouchers should be watched carefully. While sending the documents to the Government Examiner of Questioned Documents, Simla, care should be taken to ensure that the documents are not lost or damaged in transit and for this purpose, the ‘Standing Instructions’ on despatch of Secret Documents should be most carefully followed. 6.19.2 It has been decided that the Police may, where feasible, utilize the services of a hand-writing or fingerprint expert who is under their own control or under the control of the State Criminal Investigation Department. In such cases, however, the Director General of Police, will authorize the Accountant General concerned to hand over the documents, in original, direct to the MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.182 Chapter - VI Treasury Miscellaneous Section Investigating Officer who may use them for identification purposes and also have them examined by the Departmental Hand-writing or Fingerprint Expert.

At the investigation stage, normally attested copies of such vouchers or documents with the approval of the Accountant General should satisfy the needs of the Investigating Officers; but in cases where forgeries are suspected, Photostat / Xerox copies of the vouchers may be taken. The Investigating Officer may also be freely allowed to inspect the original documents in the room of the Group Officer concerned MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.183 Chapter - VI Treasury Miscellaneous Section with the prior approval of the Accountant General. Such inspection includes perusal, scrutiny and copying (including taking of Photostat / Xerox copies). If Accountant General is out on tour on any day and the police want any documents for inspection, the Group Officer concerned may allow inspection of the documents subject to report to the Accountant General on return. 6.19.6 In the majority of cases, the facility of inspection of the original documents within the AG’s Office and the taking of copies (including Photostat / Xerox copies) will be found to be adequate for the purpose of police investigation including identification of hand-writing. Even where the original documents have to be shown to witness during investigation, it may be possible in many cases to have that carried out at the audit office. 6.19.7 In cases in which the Investigating Officer feels that the investigation cannot proceed on copies of documents including Photostat / Xerox copies, he will move the Director General of Police or the Inspector General of Special Police Establishment, Director of Anti-corruption Bureau, as the case may be, to address the Accountant General personally to hand over the original documents to the Investigating Officer indicating that Photostat / Xerox copies will not serve his purpose. The Accountant General will then hand over the documents, keeping for his records Photostat / Xerox copies of the documents which should be retained till such time as the originals are returned to him. 6.19.8 Before handing over the original documents to the Investigating Officer, the Photostat / Xerox copies of the vouchers should be compared with the originals and certified to be correct by the Accounts Officer concerned and the Officer.

(Authority: G.O. No. FD 4 TAR 2008 Bangalore dated 4th February 2008) MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.211 Annexure VIII Annexure VIII (vide Para 4.18) The Procedure for drawal and accounting of funds relating to Zilla Panchayats (Order dated 8/9/2004) The Procedure for drawal and accounting of funds relating to Zilla Panchayats is governed by the Karnataka Zilla Panchayat (Finance & Accounts) Rules, 1987 read with G.O. No. FD 04 TTC 87 dated 18th March 1987. The procedure for release of funds to Taluk Panchayats for implementing the Schemes of Taluk Panchayats has been laid down in G.O read with G.O. No. FD 63 ZPM 93 dated 1st April 1998. The operations of Zilla Panchayats and Taluk Panchayats are accordingly carried out through fund accounts under Public Account opened in treasuries. The amounts released to the Zilla / Taluk Panchayats are normally to be spent within the financial year in which it is released. The Panchayats have unspent balances every year in their fund accounts. Though the fund is in Public Account, the Panchayats cannot incur any expenditure out of unspent balances of previous years. Such accumulated unspent balances over the years under Panchayat funds was causing distortion of accounts resulting in increased book/notional liabilities in Annual Accounts. Government therefore, transferred the opening balance as on 01.04.2004 under the fund accounts to the Consolidated Fund in G.O. read with G.O. No. FD 07 ZPA 2003 dated 29th March 2004. But the transfer of balances also include grants released to Central Plan & Centrally Sponsored Schemes, own funds of Zilla Panchayat / Taluk Panchayat like rentals of buildings, allocation of additional stamp duty and Earnest Money Deposit and Security Deposits collected from contractors etc. Government has, therefore, felt the need for evolving an accounting mechanism wherein the balances of Zilla Panchayat Funds / Taluk Panchayat Funds be split into three distinct accounts so that funds received under Central Plan / Centrally Sponsored Schemes including their State share, own MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.212 Annexure VIII funds of Zilla Panchayats / Taluk Panchayats and funds in Public Account close to balance for operation in subsequent years but released under NonPlan & pure State Plan close to the financial year. The grants relating to Taluk Panchayats are initially credited to Zilla Panchayat fund in the treasury and pending allocation to the concerned Taluk Panchayat has to be kept in Taluk Panchayat Suspense as per G.O. read with G.O. No. FD 63 ZPM 93 dated 1st April 1998. The Executive Officer, Taluk Panchayat has to draw from suspense account and thus, suspense gets cleared. The Accountant General (A&E) has reported that such an operation of suspense has resulted in double accounting and discrepancies between the balance of Zilla Panchayat / Taluk Panchayat Accounts and the Finance Accounts. A revised procedure of direct credit of grants to Taluk Panchayats has been suggested. Based on the recommendations of the Eleventh Finance Commission, a new minor head “197 – Assistance to Taluk Panchayats” has been introduced in the list of Major & Minor Heads of Accounts. The minor head has been opened in the books of State Government and the operation of Suspense head for crediting Taluk Panchayat Funds, therefore, appears to be not necessary. Hence the Order. ORDER The Zilla Panchayat Fund / Taluk Panchayat Fund shall be split into three distinct categories in each district/taluk as follows: ZP Fund-I Shall account for all receipts and expenditure of Central Plan & Centrally Sponsored Schemes including their State share, NonPlan Central Grants and grants under Finance Commission’s recommendations. The fund shall have the 12-digit code as “8448-00-109-2-00”. ZP Fund-II Shall account for all receipts and expenditure in respect of all State Plan Schemes (other than matching share of CP/CS Schemes and all non-plan assistance received from State MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.213 Annexure VIII Government). The fund shall have the 12 digit code as “844800-109-3-00”. ZP Fund-III Shall account for all receipts and expenditure in respect of own funds of Zilla Panchayats under Tax/Non-Tax Revenue, Earnest Money Deposits, Security Deposits and exclusively State sector schemes implemented by Zilla Panchayats. The fund shall have the 12 digit code as “8448-00-109-4-00”. TP Fund-I Shall account for all receipts and expenditure of Central Plan & Centrally Sponsored Schemes including their State share, nonplan Central Grants and grants under Finance Commission’s recommendations. The fund shall have the 12 digit code as “8448-00-109-5-00”. TP Fund-II Shall account for all receipts and expenditure in respect of all State Plan Schemes (other than matching share of CP/CS Schemes and all non-plan assistance received from State Government). The fund shall have the 12 digit code as “844800-109-6-00” TP Fund-III Shall account for all receipts and expenditure in respect of own funds of Taluk Panchayats under Tax/Non-Tax Revenue, Earnest Money Deposits, Security Deposits, Additional Stamp Duty and exclusively State sector schemes implemented by Taluk Panchayats. The fund shall have the 12 digit code as “8448-00109-7-00”. 2. The balances under ZP Fund-I and TP Fund-I shall continue as a rolling fund with the balances carried over to the next financial year and shall be allowed to be utilized in subsequent years. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.214 Annexure VIII 3. The balances under ZP Fund-II and TP Fund-II as at the end of March of each year shall be written back to the Consolidated Fund in the next financial year. 4. The balances under ZP Fund-III and TP Fund III as at the end of March of each year shall be checked by Audit during Certification of Accounts and any write back to the Consolidated Fund shall be based on the findings of Audit. 5. The Zilla Panchayats, Taluk Panchayats, District/Sub-Treasuries and the Accountant General (A&E) shall open these distinct accounts in their books. 6. There shall be no change in the procedure of drawal from State sector funds by the Zilla Panchayats. 7. The Taluk Panchayats shall draw their grants from the treasuries on White Bill debiting the State sector funds as shown in the allocations given by the Zilla Panchayats. 8. The routing of Taluk Panchayat funds by the Zilla Panchayats through Taluk Panchayat Suspense shall be dispensed with as the Taluk Panchayat funds have a distinct Minor Head “197-Assistance to Taluk Panchayats” in the Expenditure volumes of the State Budget. 9. The colour of the bill form to be used shall depend on the expenditure debitable to State/Zilla Panchayat/Taluk Panchayat as the case may be, and not to the type of Account. 10. Each receipt by way of adjustment or otherwise to be credited to Zilla Panchayat fund or Taluk Panchayat fund shall be clearly indicated to the treasury to account for the funds under ZP Fund-I, ZP Fund-II, ZP Fund-III or TP Fund-I, TP Fund-II, TP Fund-III, as the case may be. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.215 Annexure VIII 11. Each bill preferred on the treasury for expenditure shall, like wise, indicate the category of Fund Account i.e. ZP Fund-I, ZP Fund-II, ZP Fund-III or TP Fund-I, TP Fund-II, TP Fund-III to which the expenditure relates and the distinct category of the Fund Account shall be clearly recorded on the bills. 12. In the case of departments where Zilla Panchayats follow Letter of Credit System, the Letter of Credit for ZP Fund-I, ZP Fund-II, ZP Fund-III or TP Fund-I, TP Fund-II, TP Fund-III as the case may be shall be issued separately and the cheques drawn on the said Letter of Credit shall also clearly indicate whether the cheques relate to ZP Fund-I, ZP Fund-II, ZP Fund-iii or TP Fund-I, TP Fund-II, TP Fund-III. 13. Finance Department/RDPR Department/Administrative Departments shall also indicate the correct Fund Account Number in their release orders so that the releases get credited to the correct Fund Account in the books of the Treasury. 14. The treasuries shall exercise due diligence on the release orders to be credited to Fund Account-I or III before adjustment or releases to the concerned Fund Accounts. 15. The treasuries shall properly classify the transfer of funds to the correct fund account as indicated in the release orders. Likewise the expenditure through bills shall be debited to the fund account as indicated in the bills. In case the release orders or bills submitted to the treasuries do not contain the fund account number to which the release/expenditure is to be credited/debited respectively, the treasuries shall deem the release/expenditure to be to/out of Fund Account II and accordingly classify the receipt/expenditure under Fund Account-II. 16. The balance of Fund Account-II in respect of both Zilla Panchayats and Taluk Panchayats as appearing in the books of the treasuries as on 1st April of each year shall be written back to Revenue Account by the Treasuries. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.216 Annexure VIII 17. The Chief Accounts Officers of Zilla Panchayats shall furnish the unspent balance as at the end of the year duly agreed to the treasury balance under Zilla Panchayat Fund-II, Zilla Panchayat Fund-III and Taluk Panchayat Fund-II, Taluk Panchayat Fund-III by the 3rd week of June every year. 18. The treasuries shall, however, honour the salary bills of employees for the month of March of each year coming under Zilla Panchayats and Taluk Panchayats even if the balance on 1st April is nil after write back of balance to Revenue Account. All non-salary bills shall be honoured only after credit of funds to Fund Account-II. 19. The Director of Treasuries shall monitor the write back of balances as on 1st April each year by the treasuries and shall forward a consolidated report on write back by each District/Sub-Treasury of Zilla Panchayats/Taluk Panchayats balance written off before 30th June of each year to the Finance Department and RDPR Department. 20. The write back of unspent balances under Fund Account-III of both the Zilla Panchayats and Taluk Panchayats as at the end of March shall be written back to the Consolidated Fund by the RDPR Department on getting the report of Certification of Accounts of the year from the Accountant General (Audit).

Compliance to Pending Inspection Reports, Local Audit Reports and Audit Reports The Accountant General (Audit) conducts periodical inspection of Government Departments to test check the transactions and verify the maintenance of important accounting and other records as per prescribed rules and procedures, highlighting cases of financial irregularities, fraud, misappropriations and issues inspection reports to the Heads of Offices with a copy to next higher authorities. Government Rules provide for prompt response by the Executive to the inspection reports to ensure corrective action and accountability for the lapses noticed. Serious irregularities proposed for inclusion in the Audit Reports are also brought to notice of Heads of Departments by Audit. A half yearly report of pending inspection reports is sent to the Secretary of the Administrative Department to facilitate monitoring. Responses to audit observations and reports are not prompt in many cases. There is therefore a need for significantly improved enforcement of the rules regarding responses and follow ups. Appropriate incentives and penalties need to be established for audit responsiveness like linking release of funds to a department’s adherence to rules regarding audit observations. At the field level all the Drawing and Disbursing Officers shall be responsible for sending compliance reports to the inspection reports/audit paras/PAC paras for years upto and inclusive of 2002-03. A report indicating year-wise MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.390 Appendix - III paras outstanding in inspection reports / audit paras / PAC paras and the compliance sent to audit in each quarter shall be sent to the Head of the Department / Internal Financial Advisor of the Administrative Department. The format in which the report has to be sent is enclosed at Annexure – I. Likewise, the Heads of Departments shall forward a report in the format as in Annexure – II each quarter to the Finance Department. The Heads of Departments and the Administrative Departments shall issue instructions to the concerned treasuries not to honour non-salary bills presented by the Drawing and Disbursing Officers from whom reports are not received for the quarter. 2. Reconciliation of Departmental Figures of Revenue and Expenditure According to Article 346 of the Karnataka Financial Code, the authority administering a Grant is responsible for watching the progress of expenditure on public services and its control and for keeping the expenditure within the Grant. The detailed procedure to be followed by the authority for discharging this responsibility efficiently has been laid down in the Financial Code. Similarly, Article 34(2) of the Karnataka Financial Code prescribes reconciliation of departmental figures of revenue with those of actual credits into the treasuries on which the accounts of the Accountant General are based and is of utmost importance. Consequent on online computerization of treasuries, and rendering of compiled accounts to the Accountant General (A&E) by the treasuries, the process of reconciliation of figures of revenue and expenditure requires a revision. The revised procedure for reconciliation shall be as followsThe prescribed register in Form 62B (Annexure – III), Broadsheet in Form 62C (Annexure – IV), statement in Form 62D (Annexure – V) and account in form 62E (Annexure – VI) shall be continued to be maintained by the Drawing and Disbursing Officers, Controlling Officers and Chief MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.391 Appendix - III Controlling Officers. The Drawing and Disbursing Officer shall reconcile figures of expenditure with those booked in the treasuries by sending their clerks to the district/sub treasuries and this reconciliation work shall be completed before 5th of each month for the expenditure incurred in the previous month. In case, there are any discrepancies either in the drawals or in classification of expenditure, a statement in Annexure – VII indicating the discrepancies with voucher number, amount, head of account under which mis-classified and the correct head of account to which it relates has to be furnished by the Drawing and Disbursing Officer to the treasury. The treasury shall incorporate the corrections suggested by Drawing and Disbursing Officer before rendering classified accounts to the Accountant General (A&E). The Drawing and Disbursing Officer shall forward a copy of the statement and a list of head of account-wise expenditure to the Controlling Officer at the District/Sub-Treasury level. In respect of post rendering of accounts to the Accountant General (A&E), any rectification of mis-classifications by the treasuries shall be referred to the Controlling Officer / District Level Departmental Officer with voucher-wise details by the Drawing and Disbursing Officers. In case, any District Treasury requires verification of vouchers for carrying out adjustments proposed by the Controlling Officers in cases of post rendering of accounts, the district treasury shall address the Accountant General (A&E) for verification of the relevant vouchers. The Accountant General (A&E) shall after verification of vouchers communicate the approval of adjustments or otherwise to the District Treasury. The Controlling Officer shall furnish the details of adjustments to the concerned District Treasury Officer and a copy shall be endorsed to the Chief Controlling Officer. The District Treasury Officer after verification and check with Form I shall carry out adjustments in the monthly accounts on hand. The adjustments shall be shown as a distinct entry in the schedule of payments of the relevant major heads based on the authority for proposed adjustments by the Controlling Officer. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.392 Appendix - III The District Controlling Officer shall consolidate the data furnished by all the Drawing and Disbursing Officers in the district and forward the district-wise figures to the Chief Controlling Officer or Head of the Department by 15th of the succeeding month. The Chief Controlling Officer shall compile the district-wise expenditure from the statements forwarded by the District Controlling Officers. The Accountant General (A&E) shall forward monthly statements of receipts and expenditure to the Chief Controlling Officers soon after rendering of monthly civil accounts to Government. The Chief Controlling Officers shall reconcile the receipts and expenditure figures as furnished by Accountant General (A&E) with those compiled by him. The Chief Controlling Officer shall be responsible for final reconciliation and forwarding certificates of reconciliation. A copy of the certificate shall also be sent to the Internal Financial Advisor of the Administrative Secretariat. The Internal Financial Advisor of the administrative secretariat shall be responsible for monitoring the progress in reconciliation by the Chief Controlling Officers of his department and shall forward a monthly progress report on reconciliation in the format prescribed in Annexure – VIII to Finance Department. Failure to reconcile the expenditure figures by the departments will result in increase in number of frauds, defalcations and over-drawals. Consequent on the introduction of Treasury Control of Budget, the non-reconciliation or delay in reconciliation will also cause problems in variation of expenditure figures of departments with those of the Treasury / Accountant General and in budget allocation availability between the departments and the treasuries. The Government has therefore decided to take stringent action against officers who fail to complete reconciliation of department figures with the treasuries / Accountant General (A&E). In order to see that the process of reconciliation is full and complete, the following measures are also prescribed. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.393 Appendix - III (i) No Sub-Treasury / District Treasury shall permit any non-salary drawal by the Drawing and Disbursing Officers from 10th of the succeeding month, in case, the Drawing and Disbursing Officers have not reconciled the expenditure figures with the Treasury for the previous month. The Sub-Treasury / District Treasury Officer will, while disallowing non-salary drawal, quote this Government Order and return the bill with specific observation about nonreconciliation amount pending reconciliation and period of pendency. (ii) The Chief Controlling Offices shall not permit any drawal by the Controlling Officer at the district/state level in case, district-wise figures are not furnished by the 25th of the succeeding month. The Chief Controlling Officers shall instruct District Treasuries in this regard. (iii) Administrative Secretariat Departments shall instruct the Treasuries to stop all non-salary payments from 15th of the second following month in respect of the Chief Controlling Officers who have not forwarded the certificates of reconciliation to the Accountant General / Administrative Secretariat Department. (iv) The Internal Financial Advisor of the Administrative Secretariat Department shall forward list of Chief Controlling Officers who have not reconciled the figures to the Finance Department every month. (v) The Finance Department shall not release any allotment to such Chief Controlling Officers till reconciliation is completed and certified by the Administrative Secretariat Department. All proposals for release by finance Department will have to be accompanied by a statement by Internal Financial Advisor (IFA)/Administrative Secretary (where there is no IFA) on the status of reconciliation till the previous month. 3. Abstract Contingent Bills Under rule 36 of the Manual of Contingent Expenditure 1958, the Controlling and Disbursing Officers are permitted to draw contingent charges required for MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.394 Appendix - III immediate disbursement by presenting AC bills, from the treasury subject to rendering detailed contingent bills to their Controlling Officers for counter signature and transmission to the Accountant General. The procedure of drawing AC bills and their final settlement is prescribed in rules 36 to 46 of the Manual and instructions issued by Government of Karnataka in OM and Circular OM No. FD 7 TAR 97 dated 16th October 1998 and Circular No. FD 2 TTC 97 dated 28th January 1999. When an advance to be drawn on an AC bill exceeds Rs.500/- the sanction of the Controlling Officer shall be obtained and attached to the bill. Controlling Officers shall ensure that no amounts are drawn from treasury unless required for immediate disbursement and drawal as sums in excess or without maturity claims is strictly prohibited. If due to unforeseen causes, the advance drawn cannot be disbursed within a day or two, the amount or unspent part of it shall be refunded to the treasury forthwith. The Drawing and Disbursing Officers shall forward detailed contingent bills to their Controlling Officers before the closure of the first week following the month to which the bill relates so that these bills are sent to the Accountant General before 15th at the latest by the Controlling Officers. If any delay is anticipated in rendering detailed contingent bills, extension of time shall be sought from the Accountant General. Express permission of Government shall be obtained for drawal of amounts exceeding Rs.1.00 lakh on a single AC bill. The Comptroller and Auditor General of India in his Report (Civil) has however observed that there are irregularities in drawal of AC bills like AC bills for payment of bonus, AC bills drawn and kept in PD Account, drawal of funds on AC bills in excess of requirements, drawal of funds in excess of limits prescribed, non-submission of detailed contingent bills, funds drawn on AC bill kept in savings bank account, non-remittance/delay in remittance of unspent amounts and even mis-appropriation of amounts drawn on AC bills. Proposals seeking such permission shall be accompanied by detailed justification. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.395 Appendix - III The audit observations depict that while the Drawing and Disbursing Officers are not strictly adhering to the provisions of the rules and instructions in drawal and settlement of amounts drawn on AC bills, the Controlling Officers are also not ensuring timely rendition of detailed contingent bills by the Drawing and Disbursing Officers in complete form and remittance of unspent balances. Consequently huge amounts drawn on AC bills are pending settlement in the departments and by the Accountant General. In order to streamline the procedure for accepting the submission of NDC bills and adjustment of AC bills, Government has decided that the NDC bills after counter signature by the Controlling Officers shall be routed through the Treasuries. The NDC bills shall be linked to the outstanding AC bills. The submission of NDC bills shall be enforced by the treasuries by not honouring further AC bill till the outstanding AC bills are cleared by submission of NDC bills. As a general principle, amounts shall not be drawn on AC bills to prevent lapse of funds at year-end. Moneys drawn on AC bills shall not be kept in PD Account or Banks and shall be disbursed immediately. The AC bills are drawn on CTS Form No. 6 on the treasuries by the DDOs. The treasuries shall build up a database of drawal on AC bills and submission of NDC bills. The Treasury Network Management Central shall forward the details of drawal on AC bills each month in the format at Annexure – IX and the details of submission of NDC bills every quarter in the format at Annexure – X to Finance Department. 4. Personal Deposit Account As per Article 286 of the Karnataka Financial Code, the opening of Personal Deposit Accounts may be resorted to only with the special permission of Government, in cases, where the ordinary system of accounting is found not suitable for the transactions. The Personal Deposit Account can be operated upon by the Administrator of that account only. Each Administrator is furnished with a monthly extract of his account as appearing in the treasury MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.396 Appendix - III subsidiary register on the 5th of the succeeding month. Personal Deposit Accounts created by debit to the consolidated fund should be closed at the end of the financial year. In regard to the transfer of unspent balances in the personal Deposit Accounts to the consolidated fund at the end of each financial year, the Administrator of the personal Deposit Accounts should make sure that the Personal Deposit Accounts are closed by intimating the balances in the Personal Deposit Accounts on 31st March each year to the Treasury Officer for transferring such balances to the consolidated fund and for re-opening of Personal Deposit Accounts if necessary with nil balance during the next financial year. If the Administrator fails to take action in this regard, the Treasury Officer should effect necessary adjustments in the accounts with reference to the balances in their books. When the Treasury Officer initiates adjustments in the event of default on the part of the Administrator of Personal Deposit Accounts and such adjustments will be made on a simple payee’s receipt. The Comptroller and Auditor General of India in the Audit Reports (Civil) has repeatedly observed that the prescribed procedures are not followed both by the Administrator and the treasuries and the Personal deposit Accounts are being operated as an imprest account year after year. Besides, omission and irregularities like non-remittance of unspent balances diversion of funds for purposes other than those for which Personal Deposit Accounts were meant, non-maintenance of separate cash book for Personal Deposit Account and non-reconciliation of balances with those of the treasury have also been noticed by the audit. The Administrators of the Personal Deposit Account and the treasuries shall follow the provisions in the Karnataka Financial Code and shall avoid comments in audit. The Administrators shall maintain a cashbook wherein transactions shall be recorded. It shall be ensured that the amounts released in Personal Deposit Account are released for the intended purpose and unspent balances are credited back to the Consolidated Fund. The Administrators shall also ensure that the funds released to the Personal MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.397 Appendix - III Deposit Account are not diverted for implementation of other schemes/purposes. Instructions have also been issued in Circular No.FD 10 TFC 99 dated 24th September 1999 on the checks to be exercised and action to be taken at the level of Administrator and treasury for proper maintenance of personal Deposit Account. In case, the Administrators require continuation of Personal Deposit Account beyond the period of currency, the Administrator shall approach the Finance Department through Administrative Secretariat justifying continuation of account and the period for which the account has to be continued. Otherwise, the Administrator shall close the Personal Deposit Account at the treasury after duly reconciling the balances of his account with those of the treasury. Periodical reconciliation of the account with the treasury shall be the responsibility of the Administrator. The treasury shall not allow operation of Personal Deposit Account by the Administrator after the currency of the account or the end of the financial year whichever is earlier. The accounts shall be allowed to be operated only after the Administrator furnishes in writing the permission of Finance Department for renewal of account. The Director of Treasuries shall furnish list of Administrator-wise Personal Deposit Accounts and their balances as at the end of March to Finance Department for further review and action by Government. The Administrators shall furnish information of their Personal Deposit Accounts in the format at Annexure – XI to the Internal Financial Advisors of their Administrative Departments. There will be no change in the procedure for reconciliation in respect of LOC expenditure by Public Works / Irrigation / Minor Irrigation / Forest and Officers rendering Compiled Accounts and the existing system as prescribed in the Karnataka Financial Code shall continue to be followed. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.398 Appendix - III 5. Recovery of Loans and Advances Government has been providing loans and advances to Statutory Corporation Government, Companies, Public Sector Undertakings, Autonomous Bodies, Corporations, etc. The Comptroller and Auditor General of India has been commenting in the Audit Report (Civil) every year that adequate action is not being paid for recovery of loans and advances. The Report has also pointed out non-maintenance of records, delay in finalization of terms and conditions, non-realization of interest dues, etc. There is therefore an urgent need to improve loan monitoring in all the departments. The loan recovery officers (Drawing and Disbursing Officers) shall maintain the registers and compile the demand, collection and balance at the end of each financial year. They shall ensure that all such loans and interest payable to the Government are recovered as per the instalments prescribed before any further drawals against such schemes. The recovery shall be effected or adjusted in future releases and credited to the Government account under the appropriate loan/interest head of account. The details of loans and advances disbursed, recovery of principal and interest and the balance at the end of each quarter shall be forwarded by the loan recovery officers / Heads of Departments in format at Annexure - XII to the Internal Financial Advisors of the Administrative Departments. Para 7 and 8 of GO No. FD 01 BLA 2002 dated 10th July 2003 prescribes the adjustments of arrears of principal due out of fresh releases. 6. Release of Funds It is noticed every year that the Administrative Departments / Heads of Departments release funds in the last quarter/month of the financial year. This results in bulk submission of bulls to the Treasuries in the last quarter/month. The Treasury Officers without sufficient time for scrutiny of bills and to avoid lapse of grant admit the bills at the treasuries. The passing of bills without proper and sufficient scrutiny leads to irregular payments MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.399 Appendix - III attracting comments in audit. Procedure for release of funds for the last quarter and timely submission of bills was therefore prescribed in GO No. FD 25 BPE 2003 dated 17th January 2004. The Administrative Departments and the Heads of Departments shall therefore plan the expenditure for the remaining part of the financial year with due diligence and within the available grants. Bunching of bills and rush of expenditure in the month of March shall be avoided. Administrative orders shall be issued well in advance after obtaining necessary approvals at the required levels for expenditure likely to be incurred in February and March 2005. In cases, where concurrence of Finance Department is required, such approvals shall be obtained before 3rd week of February 2005. The sanctioning authority shall ensure that the financial approval accorded is within the financial powers delegated to him. The existing powers of reappropriation with the Heads of Departments and Secretariat of Administrative Department are kept in abeyance for the time being in G.O No. FD 25 BPE 2003 dated 31.05.2003 and this shall continue till further orders. The Karnataka Fiscal Responsibility Act, 2002 prescribes an accompanying statement indicating the corresponding curtailment of expenditure and/or augmentation of revenue to fully offset the fiscal impact of the supplementary estimates presented to the Houses of Legislature. The departments/administrative departments shall therefore furnish full justification for additionality, sanction of competent authority if the scheme is new, funding pattern and sharing pattern of the scheme, demand to which the scheme relates, agencies implementing the scheme, period for which the scheme will be operated and the source from which the scheme will be financed i.e. through savings out of the existing demand or through additional resource mobilization of departmental revenues. The proposals for additionalities shall be in the format prescribed in Annexure – XIII and for reappropriation in the format prescribed in Annexure – XIV. MANUAL FOR VLC SECTION Page No.400 Appendix - III Finance Department shall scrutinize the proposals for additionality and reappropriations and on getting approval of the proposals, shall issue orders of additionality/reappropriation. Under Secretary to Government (FR & BCC), Finance Department shall be the Nodal Officer to arrange for forwarding the orders in formats prescribed at Annexure – XV & Annexure – XVI to the Treasury Network Management Centre to enable the data to be uploaded and to check the claims against provision. All the Secretariat Departments and Heads of Departments shall issue suitable instructions to all the Drawing and Disbursing Officers under their control. The Director of Treasuries shall also instruct the District/Sub-Treasuries regarding stopping of all non-salary bills of Drawing and Disbursing Officers based on instructions from the Head of Departments/Administrative Departments. It shall be the responsibility of each Head of the Department and the Drawing and Disbursing Officer to ensure strict compliance and adhere to the time schedule prescribed. 7. Internal Financial Advisors The system of Internal Financial Advisors (IFAs) in the Secretariat Departments has come into force through Notification No. FD 24 BUD 81 dated 15.07.1982 wherein the duties and functions of IFAs have also been specified in details. The Internal Financial Advisor shall be in overall charge of work relating to finance, budget and accounts of the department to which he is appointed and all such work shall be performed under his superintendence. The MIS formats for timely reporting on various subjects relating Budget & Accounts have been prescribed n Circular No. FD 16 BUD 2003 dated 09.07.2003. The reports in MIS formats shall be forwarded to the Finance Department based on the frequency prescribed for MIS formats and information in annexures to the G.O every quarter. (Authority: G.O.
