Chapter – V Work and Forest Advances
Manual of Forest Accounts Department Page No. 12
CHAPTER – V
WORK AND FOREST ADVANCES
5.01 (a) Advances made by a Divisional Forest Officer, to his Subordinate Officers,
who are not authorised to draw cheque against the drawing accounts of the concerned
Divisional Forest Officer, should be accounted for under “Forest Advances”. When an
account of the advance is rendered by the disburser, the amount of the expenditure incurred
should be credited to “Forest Advances” by per contra debit to the appropriate sub head of
account.
(b) Advances made to contractors and suppliers in connection with the execution
of works under the orders of a competent authority should be accounted for under the sub
head of account “Suspense Works Advances” under 2406 Forestry & Wild life.
When an advance is recovered from the contractor, either by work done or in cash, the
amount recovered should be credited in the “Cash Account” under “Works Advances”. If the
recovery is the value of work done, such value will be charged per contra to the appropriate
head of account, the charge being supported by vouchers, detailing the work and the rates, to
be signed by the contractor in proof of his having acknowledged the correctness of the credit
given in this ledger account.
5.02 (a) Recoveries from and payments to contractors and disbursers on account of
“Works Advances” and “Forest Advances”, respectively are detailed in the monthly
statement of advances made to forest subordinates and contractors in Form FAC 68, received
with the monthly accounts. The account should clearly show the month from which each item
is outstanding, the amount due from each Range Officer or other subordinate, and each
contractor against whom advances are outstanding. It should be seen that particulars of
advances are clearly entered in the statement of advances to contractors and disbursers.
(b) At the end of each financial year, that is on 15th May, a certificate from each Range
Officer or other subordinate against whom advances are outstanding on account of
disallowances or unaccounted balances of cheques issued should be obtained by the
Chapter – V Work and Forest Advances
Manual of Forest Accounts Department Page No. 13
Divisional Forest Officer in acceptance of the amounts outstanding in the ledger. The
balances due from contractors should similarly be verified and should be supported by
contractors acceptance receipts for the dues shown in the accounts. The dues, if any, to the
contractors should be borne by the latest bill for work due. The annual statements of
outstanding balances should be accompanied by the subordinates certificates or by receipts
from contractors, acknowledging the unadjusted balance outstanding against them. In the
case of each item the period from which the item is outstanding should be clearly specified,
and brief reasons for the delay in settlement, along with the steps taken to clear them,
explained. The balances outstanding at the end of the year should be proved in the manner set
forth above, and the items comprising the balance analysed clearly.
(c) Advances to contractors, as a rule, are prohibited, and payments should be made for
work actually done. Where, however, the grant of advances is unavoidable, a definite clause
should be inserted in the agreement indicating the conditions for the grant of advances, and
the extent of advance to be made, the period within which it is to be recovered and other
limitations and restrictions are to be imposed.
The amount of first advance that may be granted at the time of commencement of the
work should be in no case exceed 25% of the estimated value of the work expected to be
turned out within the next three months of the grant of the advance, which should be covered
by adequate security.
In the case of urgent works undertaken, in anticipation of formal sanction either of the
works or the rates therefore, a first advance not exceeding twenty five per cent, of the
estimated value of the work, expected to be executed during a month, may at the discretion of
the Divisional Officer, be paid, unavoidable after taking adequate security from the
contractors. Further advances should not granted until and unless the previous advance has
been recovered in full and duly accounted for. Where urgent works are involved, on receipt
of sanction, pending adjustment of previous out standings, fresh advances may be paid,
provided the aggregate amount at any time does not exceed fifty per cent of the estimated
value of the work executed by the party and necessary security has been furnished by the
contractor.
Chapter – V Work and Forest Advances
Manual of Forest Accounts Department Page No. 14
(d) Each Range Forest Officer or other subordinate, to whom advances are made, should
invariably account for the advances, previously drawn before fresh advances are issued. The
maximum advance that could be outstanding with a subordinate at any time should not
exceed twice the security deposit at the credit of the subordinate and those limits may be
exceeded only with the sanction of the conservator of Forests.
(e) The responsibility for the repayment of the advances rests with the disbursers, but the
Divisional Officer, who has granted the advance is primarily responsible for the recovery of
the advances made by him to his subordinates.
The advances should be adjusted within three months, and the Divisional Officer
should immediately arrange for the recovery of such advances remaining unadjusted for over
three months, except as provided otherwise.
5.03 The amounts shown in the monthly account, should be agreed with those shown ad
advance/recovery in the schedule of advances. The opening balances shown should be agreed
with the closing balances of the previous month and certified ‘agreed’.
5.04 The responsibility for the detailed check over ‘Forest Advances’ and ‘Work
Advances’ and for watching recoveries rests with the Forest Officers. It should confine itself
to watching the clearance of balances by means of separate Broad Sheets maintained for the
whole state and to agree them with the figures in the Detailed Book in respect of fresh
advances and with the departmental balances in respect of ‘Work Advances’.
5.05 It is not necessary to include these advances in the objection books or in the objection
statements.
The Broadsheets of Forest Advances and Works Advances should be closed monthly
and submitted to the Branch Officer before the end of the second succeeding month to which
the account relates.
Note: The advances to Forest Officers on personal account, i.e advances on transfer,
advances for purchase of conveyances etc., are not covered by the above instructions.
Chapter – V Work and Forest Advances
Manual of Forest Accounts Department Page No. 15
5.06 Analysis of outstanding advances
All the balance shown in the Broadsheets of advances, should for the purposes of
verification and control be resolved quarterly into items of actual transactions and the details
of individual items should be entered in this quarterly analysis register, which should be
reviewed by the Gazetted Officer. Outstanding balances which are not cleared within a
reasonable period should form the subject of special enquiry.
Chapter – VI Forest Remittances
Manual of Forest Accounts Department Page No. 16
CHAPTER – VI
FOREST REMITTANCES
6.01 There are four classes of Remittances appearing in forest accounts.
(1) Cheques of Forest Departmental Officers
(2) Payments into Treasuries by Forest Officers
(3) Inter Divisional transfers-transfers between divisions of the Forest Department
(4) Other items-transactions with other department.
6.02 The Forest Accounts Department will receive from the Central Treasury Section,
cheques paid by treasuries, with a covering schedule. The statement of cheques drawn,
showing the number and date and amount of each cheque issued by a Forest Officer during
the month will be received along with the monthly accounts. From the list of cheques drawn
it should be seen that the total of the list agrees with the figures in the monthly account and
the number of cheques is in chronological order. The payments, made in treasuries as per
schedules should be posted against the cheques issued, ensuring that the cheques are in order
in all respects. A Broad sheet in Form ATM 116 has to be maintained showing the cheques
issued, cheques encashed and the balance outstanding. The balance at the end of the month
will be copied in the Remittance Check Register in SY 224 or ATM 91, as may be found
suitable, and clearance watched. After the month’s outstanding balance is analysed, letters in
Form SY 225 should be issued to the Divisional Forest Officers concerned for effecting
reconciliation and clearance of items.
6.03 Similarly, in respect of Remittances into Treasuries, a schedule of Remittances, for
the amounts shown as remitted into the treasury, as per divisional accounts is received from
the Divisional Forest Officers. The Remittance schedule for the amounts received by the
treasuries, as furnished by the District Treasuries, along with the Treasury accounts,
supported by challans, should be compared and details of outstanding worked out and agreed
with the detail book figure. Separate sheets, for debits and credits and a general Broadsheet,
showing both debits and credits are to be maintained in form ATM 117. The outstandings are
worked out and copied down in the Remittances Check Register in Form SY 228, and the
Chapter – VI Forest Remittances
Manual of Forest Accounts Department Page No. 17
clearance watched by correspondence with the Divisional Forest Officers or District Treasury
Officers, as the case may be.
6.04 The procedure for maintenance of Remittance Check Registers in respect of “Forest
Remittances Payments into Treasuries” is detailed below. In support of the amount classified
under the head “Forest Remittances Payment into Treasuries” in the cash account of the
Forest Divisions, the FA will receive along with monthly accounts, schedules of remittances
made by or on behalf of the department and adjusted by the Division during the month of
account. This is the schedule of Debits. Similarly the schedules of Remittances made into
Treasuries on or after 1.10.1957, sent by the District treasuries along with their monthly
accounts, will be received in FA through the Central Treasury Section. This is the Schedule
of Credits. Each item in the divisional schedule (debits), is paired of with a corresponding
items appearing either in the Treasury schedule (Credit), (if the Remittances pertain to the
same month) or under unadjusted Treasury credits of the respective months in the
Remittances Check Register, (if the remittance pertains to earlier months). Such of the items
as are not paired of in the Debit schedule, are listed out as Unresponded Forest Debits
(UFD’s) and those in the credit schedule as Unadjusted Treasury Credits (UTC’s) for that
month in the Remittance Check Register.
6.05 The debit schedule and credit schedule should be checked for correctness of the total
indicated therein, and if there is any error, the correct total should be worked out, and posted
in the Remittance Check Register which should be closed, as illustrated below:
Opening balance Dr /Cr Rs...................................

6.06 The abstract of the items outstanding as at the close of the month to which the closing
relates, should be drawn up showing therein the number of items and the total amount
pending adjustment separately for UTC’s/UFD’s yearwise for items of previous years, and
monthwise for those of the current year (form of abstract given below). This could be done
by reducing the figures shown in the abstract, relating to the previous month to the extent of
adjustments carried out during the month. The differences between the total of UFD’s and
that of UTC’s worked out from the abstract, should agree with the closing balance arrived at
in the closing of Remittance Check Register.

6.07 A list of unadjusted debits relating to each divisions should be prepared in
Form SY 227 and sent to the Treasury Officer concerned, for pointing out the corresponding
credits in the Treasury Schedule. Similarly a list of unadjusted treasury credits outstanding
for more than three months should be prepared once a quarter in Form SY 225 showing the
items outstanding for the quarter ending December, March, June and September and
forwarded to the Divisional Forest Officer on the 20th of April, July, October and January.
6.08 At the end of each quarter namely 30th of March, June, September and December, a
division wise statement indicating the number of items and amount outstanding in respect of
each year, should be prepared, in the following proforma, and submitted to the Senior Deputy
Accountant General through the Branch Officer after agreeing the yearwise details with those
in the Remittance Check Register, as per the closing for December, March, June and
September respectively.
.................................... Division
Year No. of Outstanding items Amount Action taken Remarks
1. Credits
2. Debits
6.09 The Credits and Debits as posted in the Remittance Check Registers, should be noted
against the name of the respective divisions in the Broadsheet, and the total Credits/Debits for
the divisions worked out is the Broadsheet figure. Ledger figures for Credits/Debits under the
head of account “Forest Remittance Payment into Treasuries”, should be got recorded in the
Broadsheet by the Book Section. The difference between the Ledger figures and Broadsheet
figures for the month should be analysed separately for credits and debits and a memo of
differences showing the details for the differences should be drawn up. After adjusting the
items (Dr/Cr) of differences pertaining to earlier months cleared during the month, the
progressive difference between Ledger and Broadsheet should be worked out, and an abstract
of yearwise analysis showing the number of items and the amount pending clearance, should
be drawn up in the memo of differences, so as to agree it with the net difference worked out
in the Broadsheet.
Chapter – VI Forest Remittances
Manual of Forest Accounts Department Page No. 20
6.10 The difference between the Ledger and the Broadsheet, should be cleared by
instituting effective correspondence with the concerned Forest Officer/Treasury
Officer/Section, immediately after the Broadsheet is closed for a particular month.
6.11 The Inter Departmental transaction shall be settled through Forest Departmental
cheques. No Inter Divisional adjustment should be made in regard to any item of forest
revenue. The expenditure incurred in one division on account of another, should at once be
recorded in the accounts of that division, but such expenditure, except in the case of seeds,
seedlings, stumps supplied for regeneration purposes, should be adjusted in due course by
debit to the divisional accounts with a corresponding credit, in which expenditure was first
incurred. Debits and Credits arising out of inter divisional adjustment, should be set off
against the corresponding credits/debits respectively and a note of such agreement noted (in
red ink) by accountant of FA against the relevant entries. A suitable register in Form SY 229
or 230 should be maintained to facilitate watchover unadjusted balances. Separate
Broadsheets will be kept for debits/credits showing the Opening Balance, adjustments
effected, during the month and Closing Balance.
6.12 As regards other items the Accountant should see that there are vouchers accepted by
the Divisional Forest Officer by other Departmental Officers in the case of advice of
debits/credits to the forest department and that the totals of these vouchers agree with the
amount entered in the monthly account. The vouchers accepted by the forest department
should be checked in detail. After scrutiny transfer entries are put up by FA for debits to the
forest department and in the case of credits to the forest department, the accepted bills are
sent to the sections concerned for putting up the transfer entries. The forest account section
should, however, watch that transfer entries are put up in the letter case. Against each item in
the list of ‘other items’, the number if transfer entry in which it is adjusted should be noted
and the unadjusted entries brought on the list of unadjusted items. Broadsheets will be kept
separately for the debit/credits appearing in the Forest Accounts showing the Opening
Balance, the amounts appearing in the Forest Accounts, the amounts adjusted by transfer
entries in the month and the closing balance. Recoveries of over payments under
“Conservancy and Works charges” should be verified with items outstanding in the objection
books.
