CGAS withdrawal using Form C

673 views 4 replies

In Form C under CGAS can the 1st withdrawal (i.e. without Form D) through Pay Order/Demand Draft:

  (i) can bank issue more than one, i.e. multiple Pay Orders/Demand Drafts? is it allowed?

 (ii) PO/DD be made/issued in favour of the depositor himself? then the depositor can encash/deposit the PO/DD in his SB A/c and make payments to multiple parties/sellers/joint owners of a flat/house through cheques?

(iii) POs/DDs be made/issued directly in favour of multiple parties/sellers/joint owners of a flat/house?

I ask because, an apartment/house has multiple sellers, say 7 sellers.
Stamp duty and registration also need to be paid beforehand and that too mandatorily online (no other form of payment accepted).

How to withdraw, in one go, in the 1st withdrawal itself (i.e. without Form D) using Form C under CGAS so that the payment towards Stamp Duty, Registration and payment to the 7 sellers can be made?

Will the bank issue multiple Pay Orders/Demand Drafts? as Form C shows option to issue only 1 (one) PO/DD to only 1 (one) party?

Bank must have issued cheque book.......... with each cheque leaf a PO/DD can be made....

Still, check with the bank branch, as the procedure differs a bit with different banks. 

But in any case, if sellers are multiple, you are allowed to pay all of them individually..... by multiple bank instruments......

> Bank will issue a cheque book
> When there are 7 sellers
> Depositor writes 7 cheques in the name of the 7 sellers?
> 7 cheques produced at bank
> Bank will issue 7 POs/DDs in the name of the 7 sellers as 1st withdrawl (i.e without Form D) ?

Is my understanding correct?

But still Form C shows option to issue only 1 (one) PO/DD to only 1 (one) party? Will bank oblige? Or, no need for Form C as the cheques will do?

Can a SELF PO/DD be issued in the name of the DEPOSITOR through a SELF cheque? Is that allowed?

Looks like the depositor will be at the mercy of the deposit bank branch/manager. Scope is limited and restrictions and procedures in such situations are not documented in CGAS rules. If a certain withdrawal is denied, who will be the authority to allow/disallow in such case? Whom to report to? No grievance mechanism.

First of all, rest assured..... payment to any party, single or multiple cannot be denied.

Its only matter of working out how the payments be made.

If the purchasers agree, usually 1 cheque/DD/PO is issued jointly in the all seven persons name like..... Mr. ABC and others.

Alternatively, as suggested earlier, sit with branch officer to check out the method to issue the payment. Its not that difficult as it looks.             Never had problem on such payments, e.g. while construction of house cheques are issued to many such suppliers, contractors etc..    only that different banks have slightly different procedure.....

Thanks a lot for the help. Will take it up with the bank manager.
