PREFACE

 

All Acts and other Statutory Rules of different Small Savings Schemes were earlier published by Late Sh. A.N Dureja in his POSSS Part 1 and 1A (for PPF) and last edition was of 2007-08. Department had decided to introduce Acts and Rules in POSB Manual Vol-III and first such book was made available on India Post Web Site www.indiapost.gov.inin the year 2006. Thereafter all the subsequent changes are made available on the India Post web site.

 

Based on the experience and knowledge on the subject of Small Savings Schemes now called National Savings Schemes, the author had compiled these Acts and Statutory Rules of current schemes with latest changes and all relevant clarifications issued by Min. of Finance and the Department of Posts through various orders in the year 2016 in FIRST EDITION.

 

Now, after various amendments in the relevant Acts and Rules of National Savings Schemes from the year 2018 onwards, this new SPECIAL EDITION-2022 is being published which include all three old Acts and Statutory Rules of National Savings Schemes applicable till notification of new Government Savings Promotion General Rules 2018 and new scheme Rules notified on 12th December 2019 onwards. In addition to this, in this edition, new chapters relating to discontinued schemes and their interest rate tables are included to make this book more useful for post offices in their day to day work as information relating to these old schemes is not available in any other book and interest calculation tables are also not configured in CBS application.

Acts and Rules reproduced with latest clarifications are having legal validity in case of any dispute in any Consumer Forum or any Court of Law as these are notified Acts and Rules by Government of India under the statutory powers given in the  relevant sections of the Acts passed by Indian Parliament.

 

Aim of publishing this book is to extend  helping hand to the various Postal Authorities and staff working at ground level dealing with POSB work so that they can update their knowledge about latest rules and serve valuable customers in an efficient way. In addition to this, General Public, customers of POSB as well as National Savings Schemes operated by Banks and Bank staff dealing with these schemes may also get benefit from this book.

 

This Edition is updated  till June 2022 and is a complete reference book on National Savings Schemes of Government of India  and the author shall be obliged if any error in printing or any other omissions/discrepancies/typing mistakes noticed are pointed out for their rectification. The suggestions for further improvements will be gracefully accepted.
