Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

Executive Summary: This document publishes the annual accounts and auditor's report for the Regional Centre for Biotechnology (RCB) for the year 2018-19, as required by Section 32(4) of the Regional Centre for Biotechnology Act 2016. It includes the balance sheet, income and expenditure account, and receipts and payments account. The document also contains observations regarding accounting practices and internal controls. Key Points / Main Content: Financial Overview: * The annual accounts were prepared using the accrual system, excluding extramural funds and project grants. * Liabilities for gratuity and leave encashment were included based on actuarial valuation, following RCB's service conditions approved in September 2017. * Recurring grants are recognized in the Income & Expenditure account, while non-recurring grants are part of capital. Accounting Practices: * Grants related to depreciable fixed assets are treated as deferred income and recognized systematically over the asset's useful life. * Depreciation is applied from the date of asset installation based on Income Tax Act 1961 rates. * Chemicals, glassware, consumables, and stationary purchases are charged to consumption at the time of purchase. * Entries for consumables, equipment, or fixed asset purchases are processed upon submission of a satisfactory inspection/installation report. * Foreign currency transactions are accounted for at the exchange rate on the transaction date. Project Expenditure and Funding: * Expenditure on projects aligns with the sanctioned budget, irrespective of actual releases during the financial year. * Expenses incidental to building construction are added to capital work in progress and capitalized upon final account submission. * Interest earned on savings and fixed deposits during FY 2018-19 (Rs. 199.40 Lakhs) was allocated to respective projects pro-rata. Audit Observations: * The audit report highlights that provision of Rs. 52 lakh for expenses pertaining to 2018-19 were not included, resulting in understatement of current liabilities and expenditures. * Stock purchased during 2018-19 (Rs. 3.38 crore) was not included in fixed assets, understating fixed assets and capital fund. * Fixed assets completed in September 2016 (Rs. 68.95 crore) were not depreciated from 2016-17 to 2018-19. * The Centre does not maintain separate accounts for core grants and project funds. Internal Control Deficiencies: * Investment register and fixed deposit register were not maintained. * Cash book was not maintained in the prescribed format. * A register of fixed assets was not maintained and physical verification of fixed assets has never been conducted Contingent Liabilities: * Purchase orders for consumables (Rs. 2,68,71,725.00) and equipment (Rs. 2,42,57,161.00) ordered during 2018-19 were outstanding as of 31.03.2019 and not recognized in the books. Impact Analysis: RCB Management: Impact: The RCB management is responsible for addressing the deficiencies noted in the audit report and implementing better accounting and internal control practices. They need to ensure compliance with accounting standards and regulations. Action Required: Implement corrective actions for the deficiencies, including maintaining proper registers, ensuring timely depreciation, and separating core and project funds in separate accounts. Department of Biotechnology (DBT): Impact: DBT, as a major funding agency, needs assurance that funds are being managed and accounted for appropriately. The audit findings may influence future funding decisions and oversight. Action Required: Review RCB's corrective actions and ensure compliance with grant conditions. Engineers India Ltd. Project Management Consultant Impact: Expenses and Overheads incidental to construction of building of institute as well as other buildings in the NCR BSC, as reported by the Project Monitoring Consultant Engineers India Limited, are added to the capital work in progress to be capitalized along with the building, only on submission of final accounts by the PMC. Action Required: submission of final accounts to enable capitalisation of ongoing works.
