Introduction Page 1

1.1 Introduction

Treasuries play a key role in financial management of the State

Government. Though they are assigned with multifarious functions, but their

main functions can be divided into four categories. Firstly, they are required

to ensure that the money on account of government expenditure is drawn from

government account with valid authorization and due revenue of government

gets credited into government account. Secondly, the treasuries are required to

function as basic unit for recoding financial transactions of the State

Government and submit the accounts to the office of the Accountant General

(A&E) periodically for compilation. Thirdly, the treasuries are required to

disburse pensions on the basis of authority (PPO) issued by the office of the

Accountant General (A&E). Lastly, the treasures are also the custodian of

government valuables like stamp papers, cash, opium etc.

In order to regulate the multifarious functions of the treasuries, the

State Government has prescribed various rules, codes, manuals and

administrative procedures. The working of the Treasuries is guided by the

provisions contained in HP Treasury Rules 2007 read with the HP Financial

Rules 1971 Vol.-I, HP Financial Rules 2009 and List of Major and Minor

Heads of accounts. In addition to above, Reserve Bank of India’s rules,

banking regulations with regard to ECS&CBS and IT Act 2000 are to be

adhered to by the State Government. The treasuries are also guided by the

various revenue laws (Central/ State) prevalent from time to time for the

purpose of accounting. The notifications of the Government viz. Sanctions,

Budget and LOC etc. further define the role of the Treasuries. Any deviation

from the rules and procedures on the part of the treasury adversely affects the

entire process of financial and administrative accountability.

Himachal Pradesh has 12 District Treasuries, one Capital Treasury

located at Shimla, two full-fledged Treasuries at Pangi and Kaza and 85 Sub-

Treasuries spread across the state.

District Treasuries are headed by the District Treasury Officers.

Two full-fledged Treasuries (Pangi and Kaza) and 85 other Sub-Treasuries are

headed by the Treasury Officers (Annexure-I). All 13 District Treasuries, two

full-fledged Treasuries and 36 other Treasuries have been designated as

Integrated Pay and Accounts Office (IPAO) Treasuries for the purpose of

Findings of inspection

Defects noticed during compiling and verification of accounts in the office of the

Accountant General (A&E)

3.1 Delay in Submission of monthly accounts

Treasury Officers render monthly accounts to the office of the

Accountant General (A&E) in two installments known as 1st

and 2nd

list. The

first list should reach the Accounts Office between 13th

to 17th

of the same

month whereas 2nd

list should reach the Accounts Office between 5th

to 8th

of

the succeeding month in terms of Rule 96 and 97 of Accounting Rules for

Treasuries 1992.

During the year 2012-13, five District Treasuries/Treasuries delayed the

accounts of 1st

list by 03 days to 20 days and of 2nd

list by 01 to 14 days. Non

submission of monthly accounts on time to the Accounts Office result s in

delay in subsequent compilation process and generation of accounts and

reports, which are required to be generated on fixed time schedules. The

detail of delay in rendition of monthly accounts by treasuries is shown in

Annexure-V.

3.2 Correction of accounts after submission

During 2012-13, 50 requisitions for correction in accounts involving

Rs 48.42 crore were received in Accounts Office from all the fifteen District

Treasuries/Treasuries who render the accounts to Accounts Office which is

indicative of the fact that records are not being maintained properly at initial

stage in these treasuries. The process of carrying out corrections results in

loss of time and wastage of manpower. Details are given in Annexure -VI.

3.3 Treasury Suspense

During the year 2012-13 an amount of Rs. 43.04 crore pertaining to seven District

Treasuries was kept under Treasury Suspense for want of proper classification. Detail

given in Annexure—VII.

Recommendation

The department should ensure that the treasuries adher e to date-lines

for submission of accounts to the Accounts Office and need for corrections at

later stage should be eliminated. Further classification of expenditure should

be checked at treasury level to avoid keeping the amount under treasury

suspense.

Defects and other irregularities noticed during local inspection of the

Treasuries.

4.1 Misclassification of expenditure

4.1.1 Misclassification of expenditure of Rs. 1.56 crore under Pensionery

Heads

During test check of data available in HPOLTIS1 system for the year

2012-13, it was noticed that an amount of Rs. 1.56 crore had been

misclassified under the pensionery account heads as shown below by District

Treasury Officers/Treasury Officers . The details are depicted in Annexure-

VIII. The wrong classification resulted in wrong depiction of expenditure in

accounts and incorrect raising of debit from other states.

During test check of data for the year 2012-13 available in HPOLTIS

system of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed that payment

amounting to Rs. 29.70 lakh made on account of Insurance Fund, had been

wrongly booked under Saving Fund and similarly an amount of Rs. 80.30 lakh

pertaining to payment on account of Saving Fund was wrongly booked in

Insurance Fund by 54 Treasuries as detailed in Annexure-IX. The wrong

booking not only resulted in misreporting of expenditure but also lead to

incorrect estimation of interest due on GIS.

4.1.3 Misclassification of deduction made through e-salary system.

Test check of deduction schedules in e-salary system in Treasury Indora and

Capital Treasury Shimla revealed that in 13 cases the deduction on account of Standard

License fees was being classified under head deduction on account of attached vehicles

which results in non-adherence of classification Rules.

Recommendation:

The wrong classification leads to serious misreporting of financial

transactions. The treasuries need to be more careful in classifying the

transactions.

4.2 Authorization of excess drawls

4.2.1 Excess drawl of Rs. 3.14 crore over Letter of Credit by LOC holders

In accordance with the provisions envisaged in Rule 5.121(a) of

Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules 2007 necessary instructions shall be issued

by the District Treasury Officer/Treasury Officer to the Bank concerned not to

accept any cheque issued by an officer of the Public Works/IPH Departments

who has exceeded the limit stipulated in the Letter of Credit (LOC). Fresh

instructions are required to be issued to honour the cheque as soon as further

amount of L.O.C is placed at the disposal of the LOC holder.

During local inspection of Treasuries, it was noticed that an amount of

Rs.3.14 crore was drawn in excess of the prescribed LOC limit by 14 cheque

drawing DDOs. Thus the drawl of funds in excess of LOC limit rendered the

system of budgetary control ineffective. The details are given in Annexure -X

Recommendation:

The treasuries should strictly ensure that no money is drawn from the government

account beyond sanctioned budget and limit of Letter of Credit.

4.2.2 Authorization of bills amounting to Rs.2.19 crore without Budget proviosn.

In accordance with the provisions contained in point 15 of Rule 5.20 of Himachal

Pradesh Treasury Rules, 2007, the Treasury Officers is required to see, while passing the

bills, whether sufficient budget under relevant head of account is available with the DDO.

During inspection of Treasuries, it was noticed that in 215 cases, six District

Treasuries and 27 sub Treasuries had authorized amount of Rs. 2,19,12,607/- without

budget provision. This failure on part of Treasury Officers resulted not only in violation of

appropriation granted by the legislature but also lead to financial indiscipline. The details

are given in Annexure-XI.

4.2.3 Authorization of funds in excess of sanctioned Budget

In accordance with the provisions contained in Point 15 of Rule 5.20 of

HP Treasury Rules, 2007, the Treasury Officer is required to see, while

passing the bills, whether sufficient budget under relevant head of account is

available with the DDO.

During inspection of Treasuries, it was noticed that District Treasury

Officers/ Treasury Officers shown in Annexure-XII authorized excess amount

of Rs.1.36 crore than available budget to 162 DDOs in 220 cases.

Further, in 59 cases, excess expenditure of Rs.29.35 lakh incurred

during 2012-13 by 30 DDOs was adjusted from the budget allotment of 2013 -

14 by three District Treasuries and eight treasuries as shown in Annexure -

XIII.

4.2.4 Payment of previous year’s LOC met from the next year’s LOC.

The provisions contained in Rule 5.121(g) of Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules,

2007 prescribe that Letter of Credit lapse at the close of the financial year in which they

are issued. When a LOC so lapses, a cheque drawn before, but paid after the end of the

year, will be taken against the LOC of the year in which it was drawn. If this causes

overdrawal of the credit, the excess will be treated as an overdrawal and attention of the

authorities concerned should be drawn to the irregularity.

Test check of LOC allocation and Expenditure Summary Report for the year 2011-

12 (Upto 30-06-2012) in respect of the following LOC holders revealed that an

Page 19: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Recommendation:

Authorising expenditure without budget provisions and allowing carrying over of previous

years’ expenditure during subsequent years are indicative of serious failure of budgetary

control. The higher authorities should look into it and issue instructions to eliminate

recurrence of such cases.

4.3 Mechanism of reconciliation of accounts

4.3.1 Non-issuance of monthly receipt and expenditure schedules to DDOs

In terms of Rule 5.25.1 of H. P. Treasury Rules 2007, the Treasury

Officer will prepare in duplicate a schedule showing number, date and amount

of vouchers paid during the previous month for being supplied on the 10th

day

of every month to the Drawing and Disbursing Officers (DDOs). The similar

procedure shall also be adopted in case of receipt in the Treasuries. The

purpose of this system is to enable the DDOs to reconcile the expenditure and

receipt booked by them in their records with the figures appearing in treasury

records.

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed that

monthly receipts and expenditure schedules were not delivered to the 436

DDOs by six District Treasury Officers and 27 Treasury Officers. The details

are shown in Annexure-XIV.

Page 20: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Findings of inspection Page 10

4.3.2 Non-issuance of Credit Certificate in respect of receipts of Excise

Department.

Rule 3.7 (6) of Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules 2007 prescribe that in

case of receipts of Excise and Taxation Department, Credit Certificate shall be

given to the Department of Excise and Taxation in the copies of TA -2 which is

supplied to the Department by the Treasuries.

During inspection of Sub-treasury Nichar, it was noticed that receipt

amounting to Rs.97,57,311 was deposited by the Excise and Taxation

Department during 2012-13, but Credit Certificate to reconcile the receipt

amount was not issued by the Treasury to the Department as per requirement

of above rules.

4.3.3 Non-reconciliation of GIS figures

The Finance Department vide notification No. Fin. Comm. B(10)1/85

dated 8 September 1987 had directed that the Treasury Officers after

completing reconciliation of GIS figures with DDOs would furnish details to

the Accounts Office for further reconciliation on quarterly basis.

During local inspection, it was noticed that in 09 District Treasuries,

170 DDOs had not completed reconciliation of GIS figures. Details are given

in Annexure-XV

Thus it is likely that the discrepancies in accounts of GIS may not be

detected due to non-reconciliation of GIS figures.

Recommendation:

The reconciliation is an important control activity to ensure correctness of

transactions and rule out any fraud or embezzlement. The treasuries should facilitate

reconciliation of accounts with departmental authorities.

4.4 Maintenance of Deposits

4.4.1 Non lapsing of unclaimed deposits

In accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 12.7 of H.P.

Financial Rules Vol-I, the Treasury Officer is required to send a statement of

Page 21: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 11

amount which were not claimed for three complete financial years under the

deposit heads.

During inspection of Treasury Chowari and Barsar, it was noticed that

Civil Court deposits amounting Rs.3,620 (Rs. 620/ - and Rs.3000 respectively)

which were not claimed for three financial years, were not lapsed to

government account. Non-crediting the unclaimed deposits may be a time

being revenue loss to the Government.

4.4.2 Difference in deposit figures

Test check of revenue deposit register in District Treasury Solan,

revealed that closing balance of the deposit as on 31March 2013 was Rs.

3,82,598/- whereas amount of pending items for payment as on 31March 2013

was Rs 5500/- only. Thus there was difference of (3,82,598-

5,500)=3,77,098/- in the balance of Revenue Deposit Register.

4.4.3 Non-examination of Revenue Deposit Register quarterly by the

Collector

Rule 57 of Accounting Rules for Treasuries, 1992 prescribes that at the

end of every quarter, Collector or any other Gazetted Officer (other than

Treasury Officer) as nominated by the Collector, should append a certificate

on the Revenue Deposit Register that he has examined the register personally

and that the entries have been made therein with utmost care and regularity.

The purpose of this examination is to ensure that entries made in the register

are initialed without fail and that no money are placed un-necessarily in

deposit or allowed to remain in deposit without a good cause.

During local inspection, it was noticed that in seven treasuries, the

Revenue Deposit Register was not examined either by the Collector himself or

by any other Gazetted officer nominated for this purpose by the Collector.

Non-examination of the Revenue Deposit Register by the Collector or any

other officer nominated by him/her indicates that control systems established

to ensure money gets duly credited into government account, are not being

applied. Details are given in Annexure-XVI.

4.4.4 Non closure of inoperative Personal Ledger Accounts (PLA) and

non- verification of PLA Pass Books

In accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 12.7 of H.P.

Financial Rules, Vol.-I, if a PLA is not operated for a considerable period of

time, the same should be closed in consultation with PLA holder.

Further as per provisions of Rule 12.20 of rules ibid, the District

Treasury Officer/Treasury Officer is required to verify the Pass Book of the

Personal Ledger Account (PLA) holder on monthly basis.

During local inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed

that two number of inoperative PLAs were not closed by District Treasury

Bilaspur. Further in six District Treasuries and equal numbers of Treasuries ,

monthly verification of PLA Pass Book was not done by the District Treasury

Officers and Treasury Officers as per detail given in Annexure -XVII.

4.4.5 Non receipt of certificate of acceptance of balances from the

Administrator of Personal Deposit (P.D.) Account holder.

As per Rule 13.6 of H.P. Financial Rules Vol—I, the balances at the

credit of each Personal Deposit Account should be verified at the end of the

year by the Treasury Officer in communication with the Accountant General

on the one side and the government servant or the committee administering the

fund on the other.

During local inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed

that five District Treasury Officers in nineteen cases and nine Treasury

Officers in nineteen cases had not followed the above procedure. The detail

given in Annexure-XVIII.

Non-obtaining of the certificate regarding acceptance of balances from

the administrators of Personal Deposit Accounts can result in improper

maintenance of PDA accounts.

Recommendation:

The treasuries tend to ignore the function of maintaining the deposit accounts due

to their preoccupation with other important functions. If function like maintaining deposits

Page 23: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 13

accounts properly gets neglected for long periods of time, it can have serious

consequences. Therefore the treasuries should follow all the rules, regulations and

procedures prescribed for maintenance of deposit accounts.

4.5 Irregularities relating to passing of Bills

4.5.1 Revalidation of Bills before due date

In accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 5.1.1 (r) of H.P.

Treasury Rule 2007, the pay order by the District Treasury Officer/Treasury

Officer to the manager of the bank shall remain valid for ten days from the

date of issue. In case this validity period of ten days expires, the bills must be

revalidated before presenting them for payment at bank.

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed that

82 bills pertaining to 25 DDOs were revalidated before the due date for

revalidation. Revalidation of bills before expiry date was unnecessary and

resulted in wastage of manpower and time besides it also lead to non-

adherence of Treasury Rules. The details are given in Annexure-XIX.

4.5.2 Delay in passing of bills amounting to Rs.5.60 crore

Joint Director, Treasuries, Accounts and Lotteries, vide letter No. Fi n

(TR)(B)(15)-5/25-IX dated June, 2000 directed all the District Treasury

Officers/Treasury Officers to pass the pay bills within three days and other

kind of bills within seven days from the date of allotment of Token No. in

Treasury Offices. In addition to this, the bills pertaining to electricity, water,

telephone, LOC and refund ordered by the court should be passed either on

same day or on the next day on priority basis.

During local inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed

that 956 bills pertaining to 378 DDOs amounting to Rs.5.60 crore were passed

late and the delay ranged between one day to 124 days. The inordinate delay

in passing the bills is likely to affect the functioning of the offices who had

submitted these bills to the treasuries. The details are depicted in Annexure -

XX.

Page 24: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Findings of inspection Page 14

4.5.3 Irregularities in the maintenance of Bill Transit Register (BTRs).

In accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 5.18 of H.P.

Treasury Rules 2007, each DDO shall maintain Bill Transit Regi ster (BTR) in

prescribed format and the bills to be sent to Treasury shall be entered serially

and signed by the DDO. It shall be the responsibility of the token clerk of the

Treasury to get initials of the messengers of DDO in relevant column of BTR.

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed that

the initials of the messengers of DDOs and token clerks were not obtained in

the relevant column of the BTRs. It was further noticed that the BTRs were

not opened in accordance with rules in District Treasuries and Treasuries

shown in Annexure-XXI. Non-obtaining the signatures of messenger in BTRs

could lead to non-accountal of bills. Thus in case the bills are lost in transit it

would difficult to establish onus of responsibility, apart from the fact the bills

duly passed by the treasury could also be misused.

4.5.4 Manual revalidation of Passed Bills.

Director Treasuries, Accounts and Lotteries vide letter No. Fin (TR) A

(5)-14/90 dated 07 September 2009 directed that revalidation of passed bills

will be done on computer instead of manually, as provisions to do so have

been made in the HPOLTIS software.

During local inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed

that 328 bills of 93 DDOs were revalidated manually by 0 8 District Treasuries

and 15 Treasuries as per detail given in Annexure-XXII.

Manual revalidation leads to gaps in data maintained in computer

system and manpower wastage.

4.5.5 Non preparation of separate pay bills in respect of employees

appointed on or after 15 May 2003.

Rule 4(13) of H.P. Civil Services Contributory Pension Rules 2006

provides that the DDOs shall prepare separate pay bills in respect of

government servants joining service on or after 15 May 2003. The cheque

drawing DDOs were also required to prepare separate pay bills in respect of

Page 25: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Findings of inspection Page 15

above employees. Further with the introduction of e -salary system, the salary

bills of all employees are being prepared at IPAO treasuries for supply to

DDOs and Accounts Office along with monthly accounts.

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed that

separate pay bills in respect of employees appointed on or after 15May 2003

were not being prepared separately by two District Treasuries and eight

Treasuries as per detail given in Annexure-XXIII.

Recommendation

The treasuries should pass the bills on time in order to avoid creation of

unnecessary liabilities and hardships to the DDOs. They should maintain the records

properly and follow the rules prescribed for passing and regulating the bills.

4.6 Failure to observe authorization and approval procedure

4.6.1 Excess payment of Pensionary benefits amounting to Rs.6.87 lakh

During inspection of District Treasuries/ Treasuries for the year 2012 -

13, test check of pension payment records revealed that seven District

Treasury Officers and one Treasury Officer had made overpayment to the

extent of Rs.6,86,830/- to six pensioners and seven family pensioners as per

detail given in Annexure-XXIV.

The excess payment had occurred due to non-reduction/ early

restoration of commuted portion of pension of the concerned pensioners and

authorization of family pension to the wards of the deceased Govt. servant

after attaining the age of 25 years.

4.6.2 Non-conducting of annual identification of Pensioners

Rule 5.149 (a) of Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules, 2007 prescribes that on test

check basis, the Treasury Officer must take precautions to prevent impersonation and must

at least, once in a year, require proof independent of that furnished by the life certificate,

of the continued existence of the pensioners. For this purpose he should require the

personal attendance and due identification of pensioners who are not incapacitated by

bodily illness or infirmity from so attending and in all cases where such inability may be

Page 26: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

alleged he shall be require proof thereof in addition to the proof submitted of the

pensioner’s existence.

Test check of Pension Payment Orders in Kaza Treasury revealed that

Non-conducting of personal identification may lead to release of

Pension to the Pensioner who may not exist.

4.6.3 Less payment to the Pensioners on account of additional Pension allowance

The Government of Himachal Pradesh Finance (Pension) Department vide its

O.M. No. Fin (Pen) A(3)-1/09-Part-I dated 28-09-2012 granted Pension allowance @ 5

per cent of Basic Pension to the State Government pensioners/All India Services

Pensioners of H.P. cadre and H.P. Government Family Pensioners in the age group of 65

years to 80 years. The Pension Allowance was admissible w.e.f. 1st October 2012 and no

dearness relief was admissible on Pension Allowance.

During test check of Pension payment with reference to original record

and pension data in e-pension software in District Treasuries, Shimla and

Chamba, it was noticed that in six cases the pension allowance of Rs. 25,450/-

Page 27: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 17

as admissible was not paid to the pensioners which results in non-adherence of

Government instructions.

4.6.4 Irregular payment made on account of DCRG/GPF.

Rule 5.173 of Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules 2007 prescribes that the Audit

Officer will supply all Treasury Officers within his Audit area with a copy of the specimen

signatures of all Gazetted Officers serving under him and authorized to sign payment

orders on bills and vouchers or to issue letters of authority for payments to be made at

treasuries. Before a treasury officer pays a bill on the authority or an order purporting to

have been issued from the Audit Office, he should verify the signature on the order by

comparison with specimen signatures of the signing officer.

During inspection, it was noticed that District Treasury Officer Chamba authorized

DCRG payment of Rs.3,93,063/- on unsigned authority.

4.6.5 Irregular payment made on account of ex-gratia.

In accordance with instructions contained in the ex-gratia payment authorities, the

authorities remain valid for payment up to the financial year in which it is issued. In case

the payment on the authority could not be made in the same financial year, the amount

authorized /sanctioned is required to be surrendered to H.P. Govt. (Fin) Budget Section.

During inspection of Sub-treasury Dalhousie, it was noticed that ex-gratia amount

of Rs.39,680/- sanctioned for payment during 2012-13 was authorized by the Treasury for

payment during 2013-14 resulting in non-adherence of government instructions.

4.6.6 Irregularities noticed in GPF payments

As per instructions contained in the General Provident Fund Rules 1960, final

payment authority issued by the office of the Accountant General remains valid for three

months from the date of issue. If payment is not drawn within this period, the authority

has to be got revalidated from the office of the Accountant General.

During inspection of GPF payments in District Treasuries/ Treasuries, it was

noticed that GPF payment amounting to Rs. 21,73,903/- was made on eight time barred

authorities and in two cases payment was made before due date which results in excess

payment of interest amounting to Rs.1554/- as per detail given in Annexure-XXV.

Page 28: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 18

4.6.7 GPF payment of Rs. 1.72 crore authorized by the Treasuries without

mentioning GPF Account Numbers

Test check of General Provident Fund payment register maintained in

HPOLTIS System revealed that in eighty two cases an amount of

Rs. 1,71,96,013/- was paid/withdrawn from Major Head 8009—General

Provident Fund , without mentioning General Provident Fund account

numbers of the subscribers by the District Treasuries/Treasuries, as detailed in

Annexure-XXVI.

Besides above, the following shortcomings were also noticed while

posting the General Provident Fund accounts in the Accountant General

Office:

The GPF amounts of officers of “All India Services” is required to be

booked under separate minor head ‘104’ under major head 8009, whereas it

was noticed that the same was being booked under Major Head 8009-101

In some cases separate GPF schedules were not being submitted in

respect of these AIS Officers.

Many times, either no GPF account number was mentioned or the GPF

Account numbers mentioned in the schedules were wrong. This resulted in

missing credits/un posted items and minus balance cases etc.

It has been noticed that final payment to the retirees are not being made

within stipulated period of three months from the date of iss ue of authority.

These authorities are returned to Accountant General’s office for revalidation

resulting in delayed payments to the retirees/nominees as well as creation of

unnecessary work.

4.6.8 Non-adjustment/ irregular authorization of advances

In accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 5.73 of HP

Treasury Rules, 2007, the Treasury Officer may authorize advance drawl of

money on Abstract Contingent Bills to the extent of Rs. 10,000/ - only to each

Head of Office and no subsequent withdrawal shall be permitted by him unless

first advance has been duly accounted for.

Page 29: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 19

Further Rule 5.75 of rules ibid provides that the advance drawn shall

have to be duly adjusted during the same financial year.

During inspection of Sub-treasuries Kangra and Krishangarh, it was

noticed that second advance was authorized to the DDOs before adjustment of

first advance. Further advances amounting to Rs 3,10,000/ - drawn by the

DDOs detailed in Annexure-XXVII were awaiting adjustment even after the

close of financial year 2012-13. Thus the Treasury Officers failed to comply

with the provisions of the Treasury Rules.

4.6.9 Non recording of Advances separately in Pay Order Register

Rule 5.80 of Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules, 2007 provides that the District

Treasury Officer/ Treasury Officer shall enter advances separately in the bill passing

register. They shall monitor that these are accounted for within the same financial year

through the detailed contingent bill sent to the AG by the treasury concerned.

Test check of Register of advances of DDOs in the District Treasury Hamirpur

revealed that the District Treasury Officer has not entered the bill of advances and their

adjustment separately in bill passing register in accordance with the rule mentioned above.

Recommendation

The procedures of authorization and approval are very important controls to

ensure that the financial rules and regulations which are meant to safeguard government

moneys, are being followed. Thus the treasuries should see that no money is drawn out of

government account without proper authorization and sanction.

4. 7 Irregularities noticed in operation of Strong Rooms

4.7.1 Use of double lock keys by single official

The provisions contained in Rule 4.3(iii) of HP Treasury Rules 2007,

provide that the bulk of currency notes balance should remain under double

lock, one key is to be held by the Treasury Officer and the other by the

Treasurer.

Page 30: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 20

During local inspection of Treasuries, it was noticed that in Sub-

treasury Tikkar both the keys were under the custody of the Senior Assistant

of the Treasury in-contravention of above rules.

Thus the use of double lock keys by one official can result in breach of security

system established for protection of currency in the Treasury.

4.7.2 Non obtaining of Strong Room fitness certificates

In accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 4.1(b) (c) of H.P.

Treasury Rules, 2007, the Strong Rooms of Dist rict Treasuries/Treasuries

should be inspected annually by the Executive Engineer or by an Assistant

Engineer deputed by the Executive Engineer for the purpose of giving a

fitness certificate of the Strong Room. The certificate must be countersigned

by the Executive Engineer and same should be hung in conspicuous place

within the Strong Room.

During local inspection of Treasuries, it was noticed that Treasury

Officers Chowari, Nankhari and Pachhad failed to obtain Strong Room Fitness

certificate from the PWD authorities as per requirement of Treasury Rules.

Thus non-obtaining of certificate of fitness from the prescribed

authorities could compromise the security of the Strong Rooms and put safety

of valuables kept in the Strong Rooms at risk.

4.7.3 Non-verification of packets/boxes of valuables lying in the Strong

Room

Rule 3.7 of H.P. Financial Rules Vol.I and Rule 4.6(1) of H.P. Treasury

Rules 2007 prescribe that the Treasury Officer should once in a month

examine the condition of boxes of bullion etc. and record the results of the

examination in the register of valuables.

During local inspection of District Treasur ies, Dharamshala, Keylong

and Sub-Treasury Chowari, it was noticed that DTO/TO had not examined the

condition of packets/boxes of valuables kept in the Strong Rooms of these

4.7.4 Non verification of duplicate keys of departmental chest of the DDOs

held in the Treasury Strong Room.

Note-3 below Rule 3.7 of H.P. Financial Rules Vol. -I provides that the

duplicate keys of departmental chest of DDOs are to be kept in the Treasury

Strong Room, duly secured in sealed covers. These keys are required to be

returned to the depositor in the month of April each year for annual

verification.

During inspection of District Treasury Keylong and Una, it was noticed

that duplicate keys deposited in Treasury Strong Room had not been returned

to the DDOs for annual verification.

Recommendation:

The treasuries should follow all procedures prescribed for operation and upkeep of

strong rooms.

4.7.5 Un-necessary purchase of non-postal stamps amounting to Rs. 21.69 crore.

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries the scrutiny of records of non-

postal stamps revealed that in one District Treasury and four Treasuries the stock of non-

postal stamps as on 1st April 2012 was of Rs. 45.98 crore and stamps of Rs. 21.69 crore

was requisitioned/ received by these treasuries, whereas the annual consumption of these

treasuries during 2012-13 was of Rs.5.72 crore only. Thus, it is apparent that purchase of

non-postal stamps of Rs.21.69 crore was un-warranted as the treasuries were already

having more than sufficient stock of stamps to meet the annual requirement. The detail is

given in Annexure-XXVIII.

4.7.6 Non-refilling of Fire extinguisher and non-availability of fire buckets.

Fire extinguishers and buckets of sand and water are important articles for

preventing fire in Treasuries.

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries it was noticed that in one

District Treasury and 03 Sub Treasuries either fire extinguishers were not refilled or

buckets were not available. The detail is given in Annexure--XXIX.

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 22

Recommendations:-

District Treasury Officers/Treasury Officers are required to provide/obtain new

fire extinguishers to treasuries which do not require re-filling again and again. For those

fire extinguishers which are re-filled, a slip on fire extinguisher should be pasted showing

date of re-filling and probable date of expiry.

4.8 Mechanism of releasing payment on the authorities of AG Office

and verification of DDOs/ Messengers

4.8.1 Failure to maintain specimen Signatures of Senior Accounts

Officers/ Accounts Officers.

Rule 5.173 of Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules 2007 prescribes that

the Treasury Officer should maintain specimen signatures of all Gazetted

Officers of Accountant General Office who are authorized to sign payment

orders on bills and vouchers or to issue let ters of authority for payment.

Before authorizing payment, the Treasury Officers should verify the

signatures on the order with specimen signatures of the signing officer

maintained in the Treasury.

During local inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries , it was noticed

that in 09 Treasuries specimen signatures of various Senior Accounts Officers

and Accounts Officers were not available in the record and payments on the

authorities of Accounts Office were being passed without matching signatures.

Details are given in Annexure-XXX.

Thus bypassing important control viz. matching the signatures before

authorizing payments could result in fraudulent drawl of money from

government account.

4.8.2 Non-scanning of photographs and specimen signatures of authorized

Messengers and DDOs.

In terms of Rule 5.19.1 of H.P. Treasury Rules 2007, the photos and

signatures of the two messengers and specimen signatures of the DDOs are

required to be obtained by Treasury Officer in the beginning of financial year.

Page 33: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 23

Further in accordance with Rule 5.19.2 of rules ibid these photos and

signatures shall be scanned into online system by 10th April every year.

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed that

photographs and specimen signatures of the authorized messengers were not

obtained or scanned in the computer by the two District Treasuries and 19

Treasuries as detailed in Annexure XXXI despite of the fact that facilities to

scan the photographs/Specimen Signatures existed in the computers of

respective Treasuries.

Recommendation

The specimen signatures of authorized persons, photos of messengers

are necessary to ensure that only authorized persons conduct government transactions.

Further, the authentication of specimen signature and photos is required to be carried out

to prevent/ detect frauds etc. Therefore the treasuries should strictly follow all the

procedures prescribed in this regard.

4.9 Issues relating to computerization in treasuries

4.9.1 Non-display of data by computer under HPOLTIS software

The Government of Himachal Pradesh had introduced accounting software

(HPOLTIS) in District Treasuries/ Treasuries of Himachal Pradesh. With the introduction

of this software, the work of allotment of token number, bill passing, budget control, LOC,

RBD, day to day transactions and daily/month wise accounts etc. are done on computer

and data relating thereto are stored in this software.

During inspection of Treasury, Nankhari it was noticed that data for the year

2012-13 was not displayed by the computer resulting in non-verification of receipt and

expenditure made during the above year.

4.9.2 Non-functioning and non-availability of computer printer

The Director, Treasuries, Accounts and Lotteries, Himachal Pradesh,

Shimla has computerized all the Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh.

During inspection of treasuries for the year 2012-13, it was noticed that in nine

Treasuries, computer printers were either not provided to the treasuries or the available

printers were not working. Details are given in Annexure-XXXII.

4.9.3 Deficiencies/shortcomings noticed in pay bills generated under e-salary

system.

Rule 5.44 (a) of Himachal Pradesh Treasury Rules 2007, prescribes that Pay bills

in form HPTR-2 should be prepared separately for permanent and temporary

establishment including those class of establishment for which no establishment returns

are submitted and no service books are maintained. The instructions printed on the form

should be carefully observed. The names of both the substantive and officiating

incumbents should be shown against each post. The sanction No. and date of the

temporary post should also be noted against it.

Further the Special Secretary (Finance)-cum- Director, Treasuries, Accounts and

Lotteries vide his letter No. Fin(TR)(5)1/2006-II dated 24.3.2007 intimated to the office of

the Sr. Deputy Accountant General(A/C & VLC) HP Shimla that the following proposed

changes by Accounts Office in e-salary software has been intimated to the NIC:-

total no. of sanctioned posts.

Employee code be in separate column.

Separate pay bills for permanent and temporary posts.

PAN No. on income tax schedules.

Annexure-XXXIII revealed the following deficiencies/shortcomings:-

1. Allowances and deductions of the employees were not shown on the separate sheet

of the bill.

2. Pay bills for permanent and temporary establishments were not prepared

separately, in the absence of which it could not be a ascertained whether sanction

of competent authority for continuance of temporary posts was obtained or not.

3. Total no. of sanctioned posts were also not shown in the bills. In the absence of

which possibility of inclusion of name of those employees for which no post has

been sanctioned cannot be ruled out.

Page 35: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 25

4. In number of cases bills were not found prepared in order of hierarchy of posts.

5. Employee’s code was not in the separate column as per requirement of AG office.

6. PAN No. of the employees was not entered in the income tax schedules, which

results in the deviation of Government instructions.

7. Category of employees such as class I, II, III & IV are not being mentioned on Pay

Bills and deduction schedules except on GIS schedules.

8. No unique impression as security feature is being used by treasuries while

generating the bills of a particular Department.

9. The warrant of ECS is not issued in a valuable document but it is on a simple

paper.

10. Except salary bills, all other bills i.e. DA arrear, Incremental arrear, Pay revision

arrear are being prepared manually by DDOs.

wise report accompanied by Acquittance Rolls with a certificate that the amount shown in

this report has been paid amount through ECS by crediting the account numbers of all

employees as per attached Aquittance Rolls.

During inspection of Treasuries, it was noticed that salary disbursement through

ECS system to the employees of DDOs falling under the jurisdiction of sub-treasury

Kasba Kotla was not started by Treasury due to non-availability of Net facility.

4.9.5 Non-recording of salary payment in the office Cash Book.

The Special Secretary (Finance) cum Director, Treasuries, Accounts and Lotteries,

H.P., Shimla vide his letter no. 17-76/71- Fin (T&A)-VIII dated 17-9-2008 issued

directions to all District Treasuries Officers/Treasury Officers in the State of Himachal

Findings of inspection Page 26

No./Cheque wise report accompanied by Acquittance Rolls with a certificate that the

numbers of all employees as per attached Aquittance Rolls. These documents will be

issued after receipt of clearance report from attached bank. These reports will be paid

amounting to Rs. 1,24,38,753 made on account of salary of the employees of District

Treasury for the year 2012-13 released through ECS was not entered in office cash book

as per requirement of Financial Rules and instructions contained above.

Recommendation:

The salary payments made through ECS by the District Treasuries for its own

employees should be entered in the Office Cash Book as per provisions of financial rules.

4.9.6 Non-availability of Battery back-up

During local inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed

that during power failure the battery back up to run the computers was not

available in three District Treasuries and nineteen Treasuries detailed in

Annexure-XXXIV.

Recommendation:

The department should make efforts to operationalise all Applications Software,

maintain the required database and utilize and augment Computer Hardware to reap the

benefit of computerization fully.

4.10 Inspection of Treasuries by the departmental officers

4.10.1 Non-conducting of inspection by the departmental officers

In accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 2.9 of H.P.

Treasury Rules 2007, the inspection of treasuries shall be carried out by the

officers of Department of Treasuries, Accounts and Lotteries and as a special

Page 37: Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal ...aghp.cag.gov.in/ag/sites/ag/files/Annual_Treasury_Review 2013-2014... · Registers 4.6.10 19 52 ... salary, non-implementation

Annual Review on the working of Treasuries in Himachal Pradesh for the year 2013-14

Findings of inspection Page 27

During inspection of District Treasuries/Treasuries, it was noticed that

10 Treasuries as shown in Annexure-XXXV were not inspected by the

departmental officers.

The periodical inspection by the departmental officer is a check to

ensure proper functioning of treasuries. Failure to carry out inspection can

have adverse impact on the functioning of treasuries.

Recommendation:

Inspection by the departmental officers is essential as it gives an opportunity to

monitor the activities of the lower formations and at the same time the lower formations

also get chance to discuss / highlight their problems with higher officers. Thus the

prescribed inspections should be carried out without fail.

4.11 Other irregularities

4.11.1 Excess payment of salary amounting to Rs. 2,15,072/-

During test check of salary data for the year 2012-13 in Capital Treasury Shimla, it

was noticed that December 2012, Sh. Nand Lal Verma, Jr. Assistant office of the Joint.

Commissioner, Excise & Taxation Shimla was paid Rs. 2,45,797/- instead of Rs. 30,725/-

resulting in overpayment of Rs. 2,15,072/- in the monthly salary.

The overpayment occurred due to making wrong changes in the basic pay by the

DDO, as the Treasuries and Accounts Department has authorized DTOs to allot user- ID

to DDOs to make changes in the monthly salary and other allowances.

Though the above over payment was deposited by the employee during January

2013, but possibility of such other undetected cases cannot be ruled out, hence the Finance

Department should re-consider the policy of allotting user-ID to the DDOs to avoid such

over payment in future.

4.11.2 Difference in actual sale and monthly Receipt Schedules of non- postal

Stamps.

During inspection of District Treasury Kullu, it was noticed that there was

difference of Rs.(-) 2,24,980/- & (+) 640/-in actual sale and monthly receipt schedules of

The District Treasury Officer Kullu informed that this difference was due to

wrong intimation of figures by Treasury Banjar, the results of reconciliation of these

figures would be awaited in AG Office.

Recommendation:-

The District Treasury should check accuracy and correctness of Non-postal stamps

account and other accounts while receiving the account from sub treasuries.

4.11.3 Short recovery of Rs.9,175/-on account of Attached Vehicles

Special Secretary (Finance—Expenditure) to the Government of

Himachal Pradesh, vide letter No. Fin-I-(C)-14-1/92 Vol-II dated 8 September
