Approval to fund flow through e-bantan module of IFMS does not need any separate allotment order other than the system generated one. Any conventional method of preparation of allotment letter and forwarding the same manually may result in duplication and will not be entertained in the Treasury/ PAO.
e-Bantan module will cover the entire processes of digitized fund flow ending up at the Drawing and Disbursing Officer's level. For the purpose, it requires provisioning of Internet Connectivity up to the DDO level.
State Government has decided to allow drawal of fund from the treasuries/ Pay and Accounts offices of the State Government in anticipation of allotment of fund for the following items of expenditure for the period upto 31st July, 2014.
