New DoE Guidelines for Release: Key Features

• In the beginning of the financial year, the Ministry will release not more than 25% of the amount earmarked for a State during the financial year. Additional Central share (not more than 25% at a time) will be released upon transfer of the State share to the Single Nodal Account and utilization of at least 75% of the funds released earlier (both Central & State share).
