Sub.: Minutes of the 12th Technical Advisory Cum Monitoring Committee (TAMC) under ATUFS

Dear Member,

We would like to inform you that the 12th Technical Advisory Cum Monitoring Committee (TAMC) under ATUFS was held on 22nd November, 2018 in Mumbai under the Chairmanship of Mr.Sanjay Sharan, IAS., Textile Commissioner, Ministry of Textiles, Government of India.   

On behalf of the Council our Executive Director, Shri S. Balaraju attended the meeting.

The points that emerged during the meeting are as follows:

It was informed that the Ministry might get actual allocation to the tune of Rs.900 crores (including Rs.351 crores already released) are likely to surrender Rs.1400 crores.  There is a delay in filing the claims by the banks and also there are some complications in releasing the funds on time. It appears that Ministry of Textiles may take a decision to introduce JIT inspection for all the TUFS claims, in views of the observations of CAG on the performance of MTUFS and RTUFS. This might delay the release of subsidies considerably resulting in financial difficulties for all the beneficiaries.  The matter will be discussed in the forthcoming IMSC meeting.
