1% Incremental Revenue Scheme

With a view to encouraging greater effort at garnering revenues to the Government, the 1% Incremental revenue Scheme was initiated in 2006-07 for revenue generating/earning/ collecting Ministries/ Departments, under which an amount equal to 1% of the incremental revenue has been earmarked as incentive provision for enhancing the organizational efficiency, infrastructure and wherewithal. The Department works out the details of relevant schemes based on the principle of enhanced provisions for augmenting operational efficiency arising out of the incremental revenues earned beyond the budget targets on the basis of following guidelines:

  • Schemes should be formulated for improving the permanent infrastructure or assets and intended towards long-term benefits of the Department.
  • Schemes which are basically consumption oriented and recurring in nature should be avoided.

2. For implementation of the 1% Incremental Revenue scheme, two Committees have been constituted by the Board for formulating proposals for utilization of funds under the scheme.

Proposals/suggestions received from field formations are scrutinized as per the above broad guidelines by the First Committee and the Second Committee constituted for utilization of funds available under the scheme. The proposals found in conformity of the broad guidelines are placed for consideration of the Board through the two Committees. Proposals approved by the Board are submitted to IFU for obtaining sanction of the competent authority.
