            15. Expenditure control Measures

            Converting Expenditure into earnings:

                   Earlier the abandoned quarters used to be dismantled by Railways by spending the
            dismantling  cost  and  taking  the  released  scrap  materials  into  Railway  Account.  It  is  very
            difficult  for  disposal  of  scrap  materials  and  it  used  to  take  more  time.  Also,  the  revenue
            generated  by  auctioning  of  released  materials  is  very  meagre  as  they  used  to  get
            deteriorated during the course of time.

                   Now auctioning is being carried out for the past 05 years on „As is where is basis‟.
            During this financial year 2020-21, Hyderabad Division has generated Rs. 108.65 Lakhs as
            revenue by auctioning of old abandoned structures. The dismantling cost of these structures
            is  Rs.145.78  Lakhs.  Considering  the  saving  in  dismantling  cost,  effectively  Hyderabad
            Division  has  generated  a  revenue  of  Rs.254.43  lakhs  in  this  FY  2020-21.  This  is  the
            highest  amount  generated  through  auctioning  of  Abandoned  Quarters  in  SC  Railway  and
            probably highest in Indian Railways.
