Para 8.25 — MSO (A&E)
Original Rule Text
8.25 Part I, thus written up, will show month by month the progress of expenditure on each work. For watching the progress of works expenditure against the divisional allotment under each unit of appropriation for such expenditure, the total works expenditure incurred during each month as shown in the Schedule of Works Expenditure should be posted each month against the Divisional allotment under each unit of appropriation in a separate folio of the Register. If there are any other heads of accounts for which there is separate allotment in any division, one or more folios of Part I of the Register for that division should be set aside for the record of the monthly progress of expenditure on such heads. Entries on these folios should be made, in respect of both allotment and expenditure, in the same way as those relating to works, the figures of expenditure being taken from the Classified Abstract of Expenditure, Form P.W.A. 41 or other schedules pertaining to the accounts of the division. In respect of suspense heads, if the allotment is only for the net charge
Part I-of the register will contain sanctions to works and Part II will contain sanctions to contracts.
under the whole minor head "Suspense" the month's expenditure to be posted in Part I will be the figure described as "Net Debit" to "Suspense" in Form P.W.A. 41. But if there is a separate allotment for each suspense head, the form of Part I will not be suitable; in this case the form may be modified suitably. The form of the Broadsheet (Form 17) may be used with advantage (a line of the form being reserved for each suspense head), provided that two columns are inserted in it. One for the net allotment, and the other for the permissible limit of the balance (i.e., the opening balance of the year plus the allotment).
In part II-sanctions to contracts-all sanctions relating to construction for works, supplies, carriages etc., as communicated by the authorities higher than the Divisional Officer in respect of sanction works registered in Part I of the Register.
What This Means
Part I of the Works Register shows month-by-month progress of expenditure on each work against its allotment. Expenditure from the Schedule of Works Expenditure is posted monthly against divisional allotments. The register tracks sanctioned estimates (including supplementary 'S', revised 'R', and excess 'E' entries), allotments/reappropriations, permissible expenditure limits, and monthly expenditure with progressive totals. Part II records contract sanctions from authorities higher than the Divisional Officer. Specific column-wise instructions govern entries for serial numbers, estimates, allotments, expenditure, and remarks.

Practical Example
A bridge construction sanctioned at Rs 4 crore receives a supplementary estimate of Rs 80 lakh. In the Works Register Part I, the clerk enters 'S' in red ink followed by Rs 80,00,000, draws a line underneath, and notes the revised total of Rs 4,80,00,000. Each month, as expenditure appears in the Schedule of Works Expenditure, it is posted in black ink with the progressive total below in blue ink. When the bridge is completed in November, 'completed' is noted in the Remarks column and the remaining months are lined through.
