List of Bank Accounts maintained by Research Section

*for research grants other than those funded by DBT, ICMR, DST, DRDO, DIETY and AYUSH.

For receiving grants, a mandate form containing details of the respective bank account is submitted by the PI (after countersignature by the Accounts Officer) to the funding agency (in the format prescribed by the funding agency) for credit of grants/funds in respective bank account directly maintained by research section. The grants may also be received through Demand Draft/Cheque if the funding agency so desires.

After receipt of Grant/Funds, the PI is required to submit the details of amount credited, (i.e. date of credit, amount and transaction ID/UTR No. etc.) to the Accounts Officer so that the grant/funds received may be posted in the respective Project Ledger Account for subsequent expenditure from the project. A copy of sanction letter of the funding agency indicating head-wise sanction (under various heads like Salary/Manpower, Material and Supply, Machinery and Equipment, Travel, Contingencies, Overheads etc.) by the Funding agency also needs to be submitted along with details of transaction ID for posting in appropriate heads. If the funding agency does not mention the head-wise allocation of the amount transferred, it is the responsibility of the PI to get head-wise sanction from the funding agency or apportion the installment of grant in respective heads in such a way that the overall amount does not exceed the total head-wise sanction.

At times, the grants/funds are received from various national and international agencies in Director, AIIMS Account. Till a few years back, this was the only account in which funds were received. In such cases too, the PI needs to submit a letter to the Accounts Officer (Research) indicating the transaction ID/UTR, amount and date of credit of grant/fund in this account so that the funds may be transferred to respective account maintained by the Research Section for subsequent posting in the respective ‘Individual Project Ledger Account’. Since transferring of funds from Director (AIIMS) Account to Research Accounts may lead to unnecessary delays, PIs are advised to coordinate with the respective funding agency to transfer the funds in dedicated bank accounts (corresponding to the funding agency) of research section as mentioned above by submitting duly signed mandate form.
