Accounts Department is instrumental in bettering the financial results of the Railways. It is this department that brings to book the whole array of expenditure and Earnings of the Division and thus renders a clear picture of the Division’s viability. The various rules and procedures supported by well-built mechanism allows the department to exercise high-end checks on each rupee spent by Railways. From being a friendly critic, it is now evolving into an organ to contain leakage and better internal audit of appropriations to expenditure. Additionally, it is also playing a significant role in increasing non-traditional sources of revenue.
