Standards of Financial Propriety-Para 116 of Finance code In the exercise of their financial powers, the sanctioning authorities must pay due regard to the following principles :-
The expenditure should not prima facie be more than the occasion demands,
that every Government servant should exercise' the same vigilance in respect of expenditure incurred
from public moneys as a person of ordinary prudence would exercise in respect of the
expenditure of his own money
No authority should exercise its powers of sanctioning expenditure to pass an order which will
be directly or indirectly to its own advantage.

2.Budget Proportions as a tool of expenditure
For the purpose of carrying out a
meaningful comparison of the
actual working expenses for (and
to end of) the month with the
budget allotment
it is necessary to distribute the
sanctioned allotment for the
year over the twelve months after taking all known factors of
disturbance or special features into
account.
