(MUMBAI NORTH EAST): Sir, delay in issuing certificates by NSO, Finance Ministry to the small savings’ agents has resulted into serious problem. The State Government is paying incentives, additional commission to the small savings’ agents for the business carried on by them in the previous year. Year-wise certificates are to be issued by NSO for collection done by these agents for PPF, postal savings etc. Lot of hardships are being faced by the agents in Mumbai. Till now, certificates have not been issued by Mumbai region since 1999-2000. Finance Ministry, Budget Division must take urgent action and ask NSO, Mumbai Division to issue certificates to sort out the differences with Maharashtra Government and get the incentive commission paid to the small savings’ agents.
