(2) Separate schedules should be prepared for Residential Plan, Residential Non-Plan, Non-Residential
Plan and Non-Residential Non-Plan works costing more than Rs.250 lakhs each. Similar statements
may also be prepared for works costing less than Rs. 250 lakhs, and for which lump sum amounts
are provided in the schedules for works costing more than Rs. 250 lakhs. The works may be
arranged in the manner as they appear in the Detailed Demand for Grants of the current year.
Departmental charges should be shown in one lump sum under each Major Head. Abstracts of
each schedule should also be added.
(3) The provision for “Civil and Electrical” portions of works should be shown together by Zonal Offices
of CPWD. No new works costing Rs.250 lakhs or more should be taken in hand or included in the
proposals for Revised Estimates unless prior and specific approval of Parliament to the works
has been taken by the Department concerned. In the case of works included in the list of works
costing less than Rs.10 lakhs each, no expenditure is to be incurred if it is found that the work is
likely to cost Rs.250 lakhs or more. The Chief Engineers may include token provisions, both in the
Revised Estimates and in the Budget Estimates, for works provided for in the original budget but
on which no expenditure has been incurred for any reason whatsoever, and the Ministries/
Departments concerned should be informed of the positions, unless the works have been finally
dropped by the Ministry concerned.
47.4.10 Plan works
(1) Separate schedule should be prepared for “Plan and Non-Plan” items of works. In respect of Plan
works, the following details should invariably be furnished:
(a) The category of the plan items must be clearly indicated, viz. whether Central Plan/Central
Sponsored Plan/State/Union Territories Plan. Provision for expenditure on Central or Centrally
sponsored Plan, even in UTs, should be included under the approved Head in the relevant
Demand for the Ministry/Department, and not in the Area Demands for Union Territories (Ministry
of Home Affairs).
(b) The particular head of Development (as approved by the Planning Commission) under which
a plan item is categorized must be indicated at the appropriate place on the relevant statement
of estimates. This is particularly important, as the Plan provision under each group and subead
are arranged according to heads of Development in Schedule 1 to the Demands for Grants
which shows the provision for plan expenditure included in each Demand.
(c) The schedule of works, complete in all respects, may be forwarded so as to reach the Ministry
by the 31st October, positively through their Integrated Finance Divisions.
(d) In the case of Plan items, the Chief Engineers should forward relevant extracts of the provisions
proposed to be made in the B.E. for ensuing year, for works in progress, along with provision for
Departmental charges where leviable, to the Ministries/Departments concerned so that those
Ministries/Departments can take these provisions into account while preparing their Annual Plan
proposals and obtaining allocation thereon from the Planning Commission. The Chief Engineers
should ensure that the provision proposed for works in progress is intimated to the Ministries
concerned latest by 15th October. In the case of Plan works, the Ministries/Departments should,
at the time of communicating the provision allocated by Planning Commission for civil works,
retain with them provision required by them for works of special nature.
(2) The demands should be confined to those works only which have received administrative approval
in cases where such approval is required.
