G.O.(Ms.) No.96, Tamil Nadu Housing Board House Building Advance Amendments, 2021
The Housing and Urban Development (HBA) Department issued Government Order (Ms.) Number 96, dated 28 July 2021, to amend Government Order (Ms.) Number 25, dated 2 February 2021. The amendment changes how monthly recovery of the last instalment is credited for House Building Advances used by government servants and All India Service officers to purchase flats under the Tamil Nadu Housing Board's Own Your Housing Scheme.
What the document changes
Government Order (Ms.) Number 96, dated 28 July 2021, was issued by the Housing and Urban Development (HBA) Department by order of the Governor. It amends Government Order (Ms.) Number 25 of the Housing and Urban Development Department, dated 2 February 2021, concerning House Building Advances for purchasing Tamil Nadu Housing Board flats under the Own Your Housing Scheme.
The amendment makes three specific changes:
- It deletes lines from paragraph 4 stating that the heads of account for loan outgo and remittance by the Tamil Nadu Housing Board would be indicated when required.
- It inserts a new paragraph 5 dealing with monthly recovery of the last instalment.
- It renames the previous paragraph 5 as paragraph 6.
Recovery and accounting requirement
Government Order (Ms.) Number 96 requires the DDOs concerned to recover the last instalment monthly and credit it to the applicable Government head of account. The recovery must follow existing norms and use the same terms and conditions that apply to a House Building Advance.
The deleted wording means the document no longer leaves the relevant loan outgo and Tamil Nadu Housing Board remittance heads of account to be indicated only when required. The replacement provision directly places responsibility for recovery and crediting on the DDOs concerned.
