Three FC-16 accounts
Tied · Untied · Performance
Each ULB keeps three PFMS-linked, interest-bearing accounts. A tied credit lands in the tied account, an untied credit in the untied account, and a performance credit in the performance account. Interest is earned on the cash still sitting there. It is kept separate from the grant balance. Position as of 27-Sep-2026.

Revenue / Own Source Revenue (OSR)
FC-16 ULB performance condition (Guidelines para 6.2): for year T, OSR raised in T-1 must be at least the lower of 1.05 × OSR(T-2) or OSR(2025-26) compounded at 5% a year.

Why "≥5% growth" is not the rule: Pune and Mumbai grew less than 5% in T-1 but still pass, because the compounded 2025-26 target is lower. Nagpur fails both tests. Failed ULBs' share of the ULB performance grant is redistributed to performing ULBs (para 7).

Projects & Outcomes
Every work follows Project ID → DPR → administrative approval → tender → work order → measurement → bill & payment → completion. Administrative approval is granted only when the proposal passes the tied or untied guideline. A failure is rejected and never reaches tender or payment. A bill moves Maker → Checker → Approver before it is paid.

Ask questions across grants, transactions, OSR, projects, vendors, compliance and GIS. Answers are grounded in authorised data sources and can drill to evidence.
Which ULBs need immediate attention?
AI analysis Focus first on ULBs with low fund utilisation, OSR below the FC-16 target (lower of 1.05 × T-2 or the 2025-26 base compounded at 5%), pending financial evidence and projects where financial progress is materially ahead of physical progress.
Suggested next step → Review 27 OSR-risk ULBs and 118 critical projects.

ULB Allocation & Formula
Explainable allocation from State → ULB using the recommended SFC route or, where no accepted SFC recommendation exists, 90% urban population + 10% OSR-based criterion.
Population share × 90%64,254 ÷ 4,86,778 × 90 = 11.88
+
OSR share × 10%1,019.71 ÷ 2,398.16 × 10 = 4.2521
Inter-se share = 11.88 + 4.2521 = 16.13%. Applied to the national basic (₹2,32,125 Cr) and performance (₹58,032 Cr) pools, this gives Maharashtra ₹37,442 Cr + ₹9,361 Cr = ₹46,803 Cr.

Fund & Project Lifecycle
Complete money trail for Maharashtra Urban Local Bodies — from State account receipt to the final utilisation of each work. A project is funded only after administrative approval. That approval is granted or rejected against the tied and untied guidelines.

Management question answered: “Where is the money now?” At any point, the system should show the amount at State level, ULB level, committed to each work, paid to each vendor, actually utilised, and remaining unutilised — with drill-down evidence.
Maharashtra • State Government Oversight • FC-16 FY 2026–27 • Position as of 27-Sep-2026
Fund-to-Outcome Traceability
Follow every rupee of the FC-16 grant from the Government of India release, through the State Treasury and each ULB's PFMS-linked account, to the work, the vendor payment, the geo-tagged evidence and finally the improvement in service levels. Every unspent or unreconciled rupee is explained and assigned an owner.

Important implementation rule: the wireframe should show “Supported / Design Ready / API Confirmation / Regulated / Bank Approval” rather than falsely showing every external system as already connected. PFMS documents explicitly describe external-system integration models and onboarding requirements; UIDAI e-KYC follows an authorised KUA/ASA flow; CCA eSign is an API-integrated service through approved providers.
Every instalment is released only when all Annexure-III conditions are met. Accounts compliance reduces the release pro-rata, unspent balances from earlier Finance Commissions block releases, and withheld performance grant is redistributed to performing ULBs.
In 2026–27 only the basic grant is released (June + October, ₹3,006 Cr each). Each basic instalment is released on MoHUA's recommendation after the GTC for the previous instalment is received.
