but no CR has been drawn and sent to account office for vetting. It is duty of S.O works to review the
Work register and ensure the timely submitting of CR by the Executives to the accounts but there are no
systems to watch how many completion reports are pending and what are the status of the work.
As per information furnished, there were 04 completion reports outstanding as per information

Apart from above, the Work on which no expenditure is booked for more than 6 months should
also be taken up with the concerned Executives for submission of completion reports in terms of para
1708 E. Even for unfinished work on which expenditure has been incurred, but work has been stopped

meet petty office expenses and emergent charges of small amounts which cannot be foreseen. An
emergent petty advance may also be made on the responsibility of the Imprest holder, out of the
imprest money placed at his disposal. The amount of imprest must not be larger that is absolutely
necessary If there is surplus money at the end of each month, as noticed from time to time or if
there is delay of several months in sending the account for recoupment it is evident that the
amount of imprest held is in excess of the monthly requirements and the matter should be
brought to the notice of the authority who sanctioned the imprest with a view to reducing the
amount of the imprest
On review of Cash imprest it was seen that imprest has not been used up to its limit. The
expenditure of previous six months should be reviewed and according to the trend of
expenditure, imprest may be reduced by competent authority.

necessary If there is surplus money at the end of each month, as noticed from time to time or if
there is delay of several months in sending the account for recoupment it is evident that the
amount of imprest held is in excess of the monthly requirements and the matter should be
brought to the notice of the authority who sanctioned the imprest with a view to reducing the
amount of the imprest

On review of Cash imprest it was seen that imprest has not been used up to its limit. The
expenditure of previous six months should be reviewed and according to the trend of
expenditure, imprest may be reduced by competent authority.

In following case, review of past trend of expenditure was not reviewed for reducing the
sanctioned imprest amount.

Cash Imprest of AXEN/C/BAQ average recoupment of 2016-17 amounting Rs 265/-.


But cash imprest sanctioned amounting Rs 1000/- per month and its recoupment was reviewed
for April-16 to Feb-17.

Cash Imprest of DEE/C/RNC was sanctioned for Rs.2000/- and its recoupment was
reviewed and observed that not a singal time imprest was recouped during 2015-16 year. After
that no recoupment was made. Steps may be initiated for surrender of imprest amount so that
blockage of railway revenue may be avoided.

Cash Imprest of CSTE/C/GRC was sanctioned for Rs.5000/- and its recoupment was
reviewed and observed that no imprest was recouped Per Month only 1550/-. Steps may be
initiated for surrender of imprest amount so that blockage of railway revenue may be avoided.

Cash Imprest of Dy CSTE/C/ROU was sanctioned for Rs.6500/- and its recoupment was
reviewed and observed that no imprest was recouped Per Month only 1400/-. Steps may be
initiated for surrender of imprest amount so that blockage of railway revenue may be avoided

The above are examples only.


The review may be conducted and unnecessary blockage of Railway revenue may be
avoided.

19. NON-MAINTENANCE OF WORKS REGISTERS


(PARA 1472 & 1474 E)
On scrutiny of Works registers maintained in Accounts Office the following
discrepancies were noticed:-
(a) Even the basic information was not mentioned in the Works register. As per para 1473
E, sources of funds, budget allotment for the year, revised estimate, etc. Should be
mentioned. The same was not being recorded in a number of cases in violation of codal
provisions.
(b) Detailed register of Works is required to be maintained for effective control over
expenditure on works with reference to estimates & budget allotment . The Work
register should be totaled up for the month, up to the month & up to date totals of
expenditure for each work struck to compare the same with estimated/sanctioned cost as
well as with work-wise Budget allotment which is not being done particularly in those cases
against which expenditure have not been booked . In the present computerized works register
there are no cumulative balances being generated. The works register maintained in this office
are giving the details for the month, up to previous month and for the year only. The system
should be upgraded for having the details as mentioned in the para 1473-E.
FA &CAO/CON/SER/GRC may review the procedure as per Engg. Code for
maintenance of Works register.

18. REVIEW OF WORKS REGISTER (PARA 1472 & 1474 E)


As per Para 1472 E work register should be maintained in executive office.
Detailed register of Works is required to be maintained for effective control
over expenditure on works with reference to estimates & budget allotment . The Works
register should be totalized up for the month up to the month & up to date totals of
expenditure for each work struck to compare the same with estimated/sanctioned cost as well
as with work-wise Budget allotment which is not being done particularly in those cases against
which expenditure have not been booked since last two years.
It is observed that the objective of maintaining a Works register viz. for control over
expenditure, excess over estimate work-wise and detailed head -wise and excess over budget
allotment for a work cannot be achieved until proper maintenance of Works register is ensured.
SR DFM/KGP/SE RAILWAY may please review the procedure as per Engg. code
for maintenance of Works register.

1. EXCESS OVER ESTIMATE (PARA 1473E)


It was observed that there are 43cases amounting to Rs. 229154/- (figure in thousands) of
excess over estimate are lying since 1982-83 which could not be regularized so far. The purpose
of maintaining Works register viz. for control over expenditure, to avoid excess over estimate
(work-wise and detailed head- wise) & excess over budget allotment for the work, can not be
achieved until proper maintenance of works register is ensured. It was found that a number of
cases are reflecting excess expenditure compared to estimated cost. A few examples are given

The above given are few examples only. There are very old items lying since 1982-83
onward. These have been become hardcore items and some items are within the powers of
CAO(C). No efforts have been made by the concerned officials to minimize the number of
excess over estimates. Special attention of higher ups will be required to finalize the very old
items. It appears that proper watch & follow up action is not being taken for each work.
FA &CAO/CON/SER/GRC may take corrective action.
17. EXCESS OVER ESTIMATE (PARA 1473E)
It was observed that the purpose of maintaining Works register viz. for control over
expenditure, to avoid excess over estimate (work-wise and detailed head- wise) & excess over
budget allotment for the work, cannot be achieved until proper maintenance of works register is
ensured.
It was found that a number of cases are reflecting excess expenditure compared to
estimated cost.

drawal of completion report.
SR DFM/KGP/SE RAILWAY may take corrective action.

19. TEN DAYS REPORT/LATE PASSING OF BILLS

With a view to ensure that no delay occurs in checking and passing of bills for payment

4. REVIEW OF BANK GUARANTEES (EXPENDITURE)

As per para 1816 AI, the Accounts Officer is responsible for the custody of the Guarantee Bonds
and for giving timely intimation to the Executive Officer concerned (say about 3 months in advance) of the
date of expiry of the Guarantee Bond and the Executive Officer is responsible not only for concurrently
keeping track of the currency of the Guarantee Bonds but also specifically to ensure that it is extended
from time to time for such periods as may be necessary with reference to the completion of the
relevant work and any subsequent maintenance period that may be provided for in the particular
contract. En cashing of the Guarantee Bonds before its expiry will, however, remain the responsibility of
the Accounts Officer.

On review of BG, it was seen that there are more than 05 years old BG out standing against which validity
have long expired. Few examples of expired BGs are given below:-

On review it was noticed that letter for encashment is not being sent to get the amount from the Bank. The
staff should be deputed to the branch of the Bank and arrange to get the amount of the encashed BG or further
extension of validity. The work should be done on priority basis. The validity should be got extended in case the
same is expiring and required further.

Letter has been issued to concern Bank for extension of the validity of BG but no response received from
Bank till date. The staff should be deputed to the branch of the Bank and arrange to get the amount of the enchased
BG or further extension of validity. The work should be done on priority basis. The validity should be got extended
in case the same is expiring and required further.
Apart from this, Railway Boards letter No. 2005/AC-II/25/19 dt. 2-12-05 envisage that if the Accounts
Officer, considers that the action taken by the Executive for the renewal, extension is not likely to materlise before
the actual date of expiry and that there may be some delay as a result of which the Accounts Officer may not be
left with a adequate time to advice the concerned bank to deposit the amount due under the guarantee, he will
advice the concerned bank to deposit the amount due under guarantee. Similar action will be taken in cases where
no advice is received from Executive office for extension/release of guarantee bond fifteen days before the expiry of
its validity period.
In any case if the Bank Guarantee is not renewed, bill should not be passed for payment and position
should be brought to the notice of the Executive officer demi-officially. In the case of works contracts, the accounts
officer concerned should ensure that where Bank Guarantee bonds are nearing the expiry period, payment still due
to the contractors are examined so that sufficient amounts are retained with the Railway in case the bank guarantee
bonds are not renewed in time. Therefore, the format of the register referred to above may be revised as under:-

S.NO. Contract Name of Due date of Name and


No./Order No. the completion of address of

FA &CAO/CON/SER/GRC may look in to this and ensure expulsion of validity period of expired Bank
Guarantees.

15. PAPER SECURITY REGISTER (PARA 1813 AI)

As per Para 1813 AI, Fixed Deposit Receipts when accepted , should be made out in
favor of the Accounts Officer. The dates of maturity of the Fixed Deposit Receipts will be
watched by the Accounts Officer. The Executive Officer concerned should be asked well in
time before the expiry of the Fixed Deposit Receipt to intimate as to how long the
contract is likely to remain current. The Accounts Officer will arrange to renew the
Fixed Deposit Receipt from the bank concerned in order to avoid claims by the
Contractor against the Railway Administration for loss of interest after maturity of the
Fixed Deposit Receipt.

It was observed that in a number of cases maturity dates of paper securities have
expired. A few examples are given below:-

8.REVIEW OF ZONAL CONTRACTS REGISTER


As per para 1209E, the currency of zonal contract should be from 1st July to 30th
June of the following calendar year. The contracts for works or supplies (relating to zonal
contracts) should as a rule, be on a yearly basis. If however, any special advantage such as more
favorable rate is likely to be secured by giving out contracts for longer periods (as in case of
manufacturing or supply of bricks) contracts for more than a year, with the concurrence of
Accounts, be entered into.
The zonal contractor ledger has been reviewed and it is observed that (i).The name of the
work/works, agreement no. & date, agreement value, date of commencement & completion
have not been mentioned at the top of the ledger.
It should be ensured that as far as practicable no work orders are approved against the
old contract after the opening of new tenders and all works of the old contract are completed by
the end of June. Exceptional cases may, however, be dealt on their merits with the approval of
the competent authority taking into account all relevant factors including such information as is
available regarding the trend of rates.
Accordingly, zonal contracts should be finalised by 30th June every year positively to
avoid delay in execution of zonal works for the ensuing year. This has also been
emphasised by the Railway Board from time- to -time.
On review of some Zonal contractors ledgers, it was seen that date of completion has
expired and extension are being awarded without any penalty.. A few examples are given
below:-
