16 June 2013 Hi Rahul,
Your question is wide in scope!

I'd suggest,
1. Fees/others received from students would be the source of income. Exercise control to ensure the fees collected are deposited on a daily basis or as per the practice followed.

2. Make an 'Authority matrix' to ensure there is no leakage of funds.

Lastly, one could make a guideline on every aspect in the Accounts/Admin. Ask in if you have any specific area that needs to be addressed.

17 June 2013 thanks a lot for your valuable suggestions... if needed i shall post a query for guidance on specific matters. thanking you once again for your valuable time
