iv) After arriving at the final figures with the help of the
Representative of the Audit Department, a proposal is
prepared and forwarded for the AGM(P)’s approval.
v) After approval, the canteen contractors are being paid
subsidy as per the number of staff computed and approved
for that particular year. As the work of computing the
number of staff takes two or three months time, the subsidy
of the canteen contractors is adjusted accordingly in the
proceeding months of that year. Further, as the work of
computing subsidy is complex involving nearly 43,500
employees of the Undertaking, it is carried out only once in
a year and the staff position at the beginning of the
financial year is only taken into consideration. Routine
transfers during the year are not considered. However,
when there is mass transfer of staff/employees, at the time
of commissioning/closure of a Depot , the amount of
subsidy payable is revised.
