The Union Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, has attributed the delay in Goods and Services Tax (GST) compensation to certain states to the unavailability of Accountant General (AG)’s authenticated certificates.
“AG’s certification is (mandatory) by law between the Centre, states and the AG (accountant general), and it is an agreed process. So, unless the authentication is given by the AG..” she said.
The finance minister pointed out that in case there is a delay in AG’s authentication, it is purely a matter between the AG and the state governments, and they will have to figure it out themselves.
