1. G.O.Ms.No.62 FIN (CASH MANAGEMENT) Dept., dated 16.04.2016.

O R D E R :
In the reference 1st read above, orders were issued fixing the schedule for submission of bills by the DDOs to the Treasuries / Pay and Accounts Office / Works Accounts Offices.
2. During the course of operationalization of Phase-I of CFMS, in the reference 2nd read above, instructions were issued, inter-alia, that the schedule for presentation & payment of various bills as prescribed in the reference 1st cited and amendments thereon, is kept on hold until further orders, i.e., there is no restriction on the dates for presentation of the bills by the DDOs to the Treasury / PAO for payment.
3. The Phase-I of CFMS has since stabilized during the last (2) years, and during the review of the implementation with the DTA & PAO and all the concerned stakeholders, it is observed that the unregulated presentation of bills has impacted the quality of bill submission, quality of audit & also estimation and management of the outflows of funds, besides creating uneven load on CFMS system resources.
4. Duly considering the above and in order to further streamline and optimize the functioning of the State Public Financial Management system and to ensure proper scheduling and efficiency, and prioritization of State Flagship and CSS schemes, it is decided to re-introduce the schedule for bills presentation by the DDOs under various Schemes and Programmes.
5. Accordingly, in modification of the instructions issued in the reference 2nd cited, the Government hereby issue the following instructions on the scheme of schedule for presentation of bills to the Treasuries & Pay and Accounts Offices in the State, as indicated with effect from the month of July 2020.
