Govt enhances financial powers of ministers, departments

29 Jun 2016 Evaluate

For faster appraisal and approval of Non-Plan Schemes/Projects by competent authorities, the Central government has enhanced financial limits of departments and ministries, which will help speed up decision-making and project clearances.

Projects or schemes worth Rs 500 crore and above as against the earlier ceiling of Rs 150 crore and up to Rs 1,000 crore can now be cleared by the Finance Minister and only proposal having financial limits of Rs 1000 crore and above would require the Cabinet approval.

Ministry of Finance has elaborated that concurrently, financial limits regarding appraisal and approval of increase in cost estimates have also been revised. Increase in cost up to 20% of the firmed up cost estimates can now be appraised by the Financial Adviser and approved by Secretary of the administrative Department, if the absolute cost escalation is up to Rs.75 crore, and by the Administrative Minister-in-charge if absolute cost escalation is above this. In case the escalation is more the administrative minister-in-charge can clear the same.

It added that with this enhancement of financial powers, the financial limits for appraisal and approval of plan and non-plan schemes/projects of Central Government Ministries and Departments have been brought almost at par. This is expected to expedite appraisal and approval process in the Central Government Ministries/Departments.
