Need for works • Felt by field executive during day to day work e. g. ADEN during inspection like replacement of pipe line , water tank, Qtrs. , office & other infrastructure works • As per Inspection of higher officers. • Felt by higher management keeping future requirement in view like Doubling, Gauge Conversion. • Developmental works on Public demand- New Line Passenger amenity etc. • Infrastructure development for New trains. • Corporate planning like new terminals, World class station etc. • Policy requirements – Type I qtrs. to be replaced by Type II Qrs, No Bridge. Timbers, No Straight switches, No UMLC etc

Work processed directly by Railway Board • The proposals for works of New Lines, Gauge Conversion, Doubling & Railway Electrification are initiated at Railway Board level. • Generally Zonal railways are not proposing these works • E-604 - Detailed Traffic and Engineering surveys should be carried out for new lines, gauge conversions doublings and for other line capacity works costing more than Rupees Five Crores each.

Processing of Works proposals • Identification of work A. Chargeable to Revenue (Demand No. 4/7/11/9) B. Chargeable to Capital (Demand No. -16) • Conceptual Drawings and Justification • RECT/PECT • Abstract Estimate • IRPSM • Sanction

Preparation of works programme On the basis of the estimate of the Plan, funds requirement for the ensuing year, the Railway Board lay down the financial limits under various plan heads within which the Railway Administrations are required to make out their programme for the following years duly vetted by the Financial Advisor and Chief Accounts Officer for submission to the Railway Board by a specified date. The programmes are examined by the Railway Board and discussed, where necessary, with the General Managers and the works to be undertaken as well as the outlays during the Budget year are decided upon.

Stages of Investment planning The various stages of investment planning and preparation of the Final Works Programme are given below : • (i)Formulation of schemes as a part of advance planning; • (ii)Submission of major schemes for advance scrutiny and clearance by the Railway Board for selection of Projects to be taken up in the following year. • (iii)Preparation of the Preliminary Works Programme within the financial ceiling laid down by the Railway Board ; and • (iv)Discussions with the Railway Board and submission of the Final Works Programme.

Advance Planning • The preparation of the annual Works Programme of a Railway is not an isolated exercise for the year, but is part of a continuous planning process from the level of the Divisional Officer upwards. • An important requirement for effective investment planning is the realistic estimation of project costs. Full details of the scheme must be worked out and no scheme should be included in the Railway's Works Programme unless detailed plans and estimates have been prepared and are ready. Detailed Traffic and Engineering surveys should be carried out for new lines, gauge conversions doublings and for other line capacity works costing more than Rupees Five Crores each.

Advance Planning Continue In the case of yard remodeling, line capacity works i. e. , goods shed facilities and important buildings the estimates should be based on plans approved and signed by the concerned departments who should scrutinize the plans carefully to avoid the need for making any substantial modifications in the required facility at a subsequent stage. If major changes in the plans/schemes/specifications of works nevertheless become necessary and are likely to lead to substantial excesses over the sanctioned estimates the changes asked for by the concerned departments should not be agreed to unless reviewed and approved by the competent authority sanctioning the original estimate.

Advance Planning Continue • It is an essential feature of the railway system that expenditure to be incurred on new assets or for improvement of existing assets should be financially justified Detailed instructions regarding the financial appraisal of Railway projects are contained in Chapter II of the Indian Railway Financial Code to which reference may be made. Detailed financial implications (including financial return) should be worked out in all cases. If the prescribed return is found to be not obtainable on the anticipated level of traffic, the Railway Administration should examine the proposal for reduction in scope or some other alternative, or postponed until traffic prospects improve.

Scrutiny of Schemes before preparation of Preliminary Works Programme All schemes costing Rs. 20 lakhs or above should be worked out comprehensively and sent to the Board along with full details of (i) the technical features, (ii) Cost breakup. (iii) benefit expected to accrue and (iv) financial implications. A sketch map of each proposal should also be sent. The Railway Administration must clearly bring out the purpose of each scheme and confirm that the proposal meets the objective fully and that the scope and cost of the project have been arrived at after the fullest possible investigation including assessment of the financial implications. After the schemes have been scrutinized by the Board, the Railway Administrations should be advised of the acceptance, with or without any modifications for inclusion in the Works programme.

The Chief Engineer of the Railway will be primarily responsible for ensuring that the proposals prepared by the various departments are complete in all respects and are correctly prepared. The overall priorities within the ceilings given by the Board will also be fixed by him in consultation with the General Manager and other Heads of Departments. He will be responsible for the preparation and timely submission of the Preliminary and the Final Works Programme. • In or about June/July each year the Railway Board should convey to each Railway, in respect of each Plan Head, the total outlay within which the Works Programme should be framed by the Railway.

Preliminary Works Programme The PWP for the following year should be submitted to the Rly. Bd by Zonal Rly. by 1 st week of September or such earlier date as may be laid down by the Board. Proper financial appraisal of each work should be given in the Preliminary Works Programme together with the comments of FA&CAO. The project cost should be based on firm data both as to quantity and rates at current price levels, and should any increase occur in prices during the period intervening between the initial preparation of the project estimate and its inclusion in the WP, the estimate should be updated with current cost of material and labour. No other increase such as on account of change in scope of the project should be allowed without prior reasons being adduced for acceptance by the Rly Bd. A sketch showing the proposal should accompany each proposal.

Each investment proposal should be accompanied by a detailed plan showing the scheduling of the project to match the traffic requirements and the financial outlay proposed for the year should be in accordance with this project schedule to enable the Railway Board to arrange for a realistic funds allocation for implementation of the programme. E-617 Works once introduced through a Works Programme (including Track Renewal Programme) and taken up after the estimates have been sanctioned by the competent authority should continue to be included every year till they are finally completed, except in case where the works have reached the completion stage and where funds required if meagre could be found by reappropriation.

E-618. The Works Programme is compiled in the following format : Form E. 618 WORKS PROGRAMME 1975 -76 Demand No. . . . Figures in thousands of rupees) Note : --Years have been shown in the form for the purpose of illustration. In respect of "Works in Progress" reference to item No. of the current year’s Pink Book and also the authority under which the work was first started should be indicated. The works should be arranged as per the Plan Heads. 618. The Works Programme is compiled in the following format : Ite m No. Authority Particulars of Works Cost Expenditur e to end of 3/74 Outlay for 1974 -75 Outlay for 1975 -76 Balance

Final Works Programme After having examined the individual Railways Programme, and discussions with the General Managers, the Railway Board will decide the works which should be undertaken during the following year and which should be included in the Final Works Programme. The Railway Administration will then modify their Works Programmes as a result of the Board's decision and send their Final Works Programme to the Railway Board by the stipulated date.

Section II-Works Budget The revised and budget estimates for the construction, acquisition and replacement of assets are briefly known as Works Budget. The revised estimate gives an estimate of funds required for the current year and the budget estimate refers to the following year. The budget estimate for the works are based on the Works Programme approved by the Board. The requirement of funds both for new investments and for works in progress are submitted in the form of "Demand for Grants" in the Works Machinery and Rolling Stock Programme which forms a part of the Budget papers presented to the Parliament.

Demand for Works Grants The proposal of Government in respect of sums required to meet the expenditure from the Consolidated Fund of India are to be submitted in the form of Demands for Grants to the Parliament. The Demand shall be for gross expenditure, the credits or recoveries. The Demand for Grants for the Works Budget is : Demand No. 16 : Assets-Acquisitions, Construction and Replacements. Financing of Works Budget Works chargeable to Demand No 16. Assets-Acquisitions Construction and Replacements are financed from railway revenue when it is charged to OLWR or financed from Capital. Depreciation Reserve Fund, Development Fund, Accident Compensation Safety and Passenger Amenities Fund. Expenditure budgeted under "capital" involves increase in the Capital-at-charge of the Railways and hence is the liability for payment of dividend to General Revenue subject to the relief/exemptions granted by the Convention Committee.

Work Expenditure "Works expenditure" of the Railway is thus financed from Revenue, Railway Funds and Capital provided by the General Revenues. The Railway Funds are Depreciation Reserve Fund, Development Fund and Accident Compensation Safety and Passenger Amenities Fund. For Details regarding the operation of the funds, reference may be made to Chapter. III of the Indian Railway Financial Code.
