DSC processes at the state level
Learning ObjectivesIssuing bodies and process of procuring DSCs
To procure digital signatures the STO needs to identify the NTEP authorities that require a new/ renewal of DSC for DBT payments. The STO needs to seek approvals from the competent authority as per the General Financial Rules at the state level (such as Director-Finance/ MD-NHM) for procurement of DSCs for those authorities.
Once approved, DSCs can be procured from any agency authorized by the NIC. (List of certified agencies from which DSC can be procured). After procurement of the DSC, the state needs to set the drawing limits to the district-level agencies for allocating funds to the district as per fund releases by the ministry.
Process of drawing limit set by the state level agency: Log in with PFMS admin id -> Go to Masters -> Go to drawing limit of agency -> Select scheme, hierarchy level(District level) -> Search -> All the districts mapped with the respective Admin id will show up -> Give the total limit, the expenditure limit -> Save
