5,273,438

2005

751,192

I am further informed that the fuel expenditure from imprest accounts has reduced with the advent of central billing; however, some stations still buy the fuel locally through an Imprest Account. Records of fuel spending from imprest accounts are maintained at Divisional/District offices. A detailed breakdown of spending for Shell and for the years 2002 and 2003 is not readily available.
