7.4.3.2 Separate accounting sub-head not opened for collection of Trust Fund
7.4.4.1 Non-maintenance of Demand and Collection Register for DMFT Fund
7.4.4.3 Short payment of contribution towards DMFT Fund
7.4.5 Conclusion and Recommendations
The State Government framed the DMFT Rules, 2016 belatedly and did not open a separate sub-head for its accounting as per Rule. There was no provision in the IT system for depositing the Trust Fund alongwith the payment of royalty. The Department did not recover full contribution towards DMFT Fund as well as interest on delayed payment from mineral concession holders, Royalty Collection Contractor/Excess Royalty Collection Contractors and brick earth permit holders.
The Government may open a separate sub-head to collect Trust Fund for proper monitoring and expedite efforts to disburse Rs. 498.17 crore to the concerned DMFT after reconciliation.
The Government may consider inserting an option for collection of DMFT Fund in advance along with payment of royalty in their online system and direct all ME/AME offices to maintain lease/RCC/ERCC wise Demand and Collection Register. Click Here to read CAG report
