Authorizations were made to incur expenditure on purely 'First Come First Serve' basis subject to the condition that total overall expenditure does not exceed total allocation made during that Financial Year to ensure that there are least surrender of funds. Therefore, expenditure for some States have been more than the allocation made during that Financial Year.

- *- Negative allocation is reflected as funds were re-appropriated from NHDP-IV (State PWD) to NHAI. However the State/UT wise allocation was not reduced.
- #- Expenditure included in State/UT wise
- $- State/UT wise allocations not made

Allocation of PR/IRQP is not included in the above statement. PR/IRQP is funded from NH(O) from 2021-22.

Alloc. -Allocation; Expd. - Expenditure Authorizations were made to incur expenditure on purely 'First Come First Serve' basis subject to the condition that total overall expenditure does not exceed total allocation made during that Financial Year to ensure that there are least surrender of funds. Therefore, expenditure for some States have been more than the allocation made during that Financial Year. $- Erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir State before reorganisation to State of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh UT ^- Erstwhile UTs before merger *- Negative allocation is reflected as funds were re-appropriated from State PWD to NHAI/NHIDCL due to lower expenditure being incurred. However the State/UT wise allocation was not reduced due to sanction purposes. #- Expenditure included in State/UT wise Allocation and expenditure in the above statement includes PR/IRQP which is funded from NH(O) from 2021-22. Therefore, total allocation is greater than total outlay of M&R.
