Dear Sir/Madam,

Annual Closing of Government Accounts – Transactions of Central / State Governments – Special Measures for the Current Financial Year (2012-13)

We have been requested by the Government of India and some State Governments to facilitate collection and accounting of all Government tax receipts for the current financial year (2012-13) up to March 31, 2013 keeping in view the likely rush of tax-payers towards the end of March 2013. Accordingly, it has been decided that all Agency banks shall keep the counters of their designated branches conducting Government business open (full day with extended hours) on March 29, 30 and 31, 2013 to facilitate receipt of Government taxes from members of public even at late hours.

2. As regards conduct of special clearing on these dates (including same-day return clearing on March 31, 2013), separate guidelines are being issued by our Department of Payment and Settlement Systems ( DPSS), Central Office, Mumbai.

3. You are requested to advise all concerned to strictly implement the above instructions.

Yours faithfully

(G. C. Biswal)

Deputy General Manager
