Who is PAO?

In the Government Accounting System, each DDO (Drawing & Disbursement Officer) is associated with a specific Pay & Accounts Officer (PAO), who processes the bills prepared by the DDO. Form 24G is a single monthly statement where the PAO will consolidate the payment details from each of the DDO, for each type of deduction/collection (TDS-Salary / TDS-Non Salary / TDS-Non Salary Non Residents / TCS) in a single form known as Form 24G.
