Para 6.4 — The AG maintains two types of Subsidiary Loan Regi
Original Rule Text
6.4 The Accountant General will keep two Subsidiary Loan Registers (in the annexed Forms A and B) for all loans made by Government to public or quasipublic bodies and to individuals, except Revenue Advances (see paragraph 6.14). Form A will be for those loans which are repayable by direct credit of the repayments to the principal of the loan and From B for those which are repayable by payments into a Sinking Fund. In both cases, a separate page should be set apart for each loan. Before posting recoveries, whether of principal or interest, into the classified Abstract the accountant will obtain the initials of the poster of the Loan Register against the entries in the treasury account to show that they are correct. The poster of the Loan Register, after reference to the Detail Book will make the necessary postings from the treasury accounts, and also post into a broadsheet the total amount recovered or paid for each loan. The total in the broadsheet should be
certified monthly by the Book-keeper, while the register as well as the broadsheet should be reviewed monthly by the Gazetted Officer-in-charge. The Register prescribed above should be maintained also in respect of loans given by the Union Government to the State Governments.

1. In this example, the rate of interest is taken at 4 percent and the days for its payment are supposed to be April 16th and October 16th. The first, second and fourth sections record actual transactions and require no remark. In the third section “Calculation of Interest on Principal”, the figures show the amount that accrues and falls due upon the next periodical day. On the balance of Rs. 50,000/- half a year’s interest or Rs. 1,000/- will fall due on October 16th; on the rest the amounts are calculated upon the number of days from the date of the transaction till the end of the half year: the actual amount due on October 16th is the difference between the two columns.
2. On the periodical fixed day, the amount is made up in the manner shown, and the balance of principal, Rs. 40,000/- and of interest Rs. 958/- due from the debtor is calculated and set forth in the manner indicated.
3. It is not thought worthwhile to set apart separate special columns for calculation of interest due on arrear interest. The calculation, however, is made as shown in the above specimen, in exactly the same way as on the principal though the rate percent is usually higher.
4. The sum of Rs. 20,000/- in the foregoing example would not, in
practice, be entirely credited to principal, but it is so entered here in order to illustrate how the account may be made up under various possible contingencies.

What This Means
The AG maintains two types of Subsidiary Loan Registers for all government loans (except Revenue Advances): Form A for loans repaid by direct principal repayment, and Form B for loans repaid through a Sinking Fund. Each loan gets its own page. Before posting recoveries into the Classified Abstract, the accountant must get the Loan Register poster's initials confirming the entries are correct. The broadsheet totals are certified monthly by the Book-keeper and reviewed by a Gazetted Officer. These registers are also used for Central-to-State government loans.

Key Points
- 1Form A: loans repayable by direct credit to principal
- 2Form B: loans repayable through Sinking Fund payments
- 3Each loan has a separate page in the register
- 4Cross-verification: Loan Register poster initials required before classified abstract posting
- 5Monthly certification by Book-keeper and review by Gazetted Officer
- 6Applies to Central-to-State government loans as well
Practical Example
The State Government gives two loans: Rs. 10 crore to a Municipal Corporation (direct repayment in 40 half-yearly instalments) recorded in Form A, and Rs. 5 crore to a Water Authority (repayable via Sinking Fund) recorded in Form B. Each has its own register page. When the Municipal Corporation's Rs. 25 lakh instalment arrives, the Loan Register poster verifies and initials it, only then does the accountant post it to the Classified Abstract. The Book-keeper certifies the monthly broadsheet total, and the Deputy AG reviews both registers.
