  1. Ways and means advances

    Multiple issues wikify January 2012 orphan January 2012 no footnotes October 2011 Ways and means advances WMA is a mechanism used by Reserve Bank of India RBI under its credit policy by which provides to the States banking with it to help them to tide over temporary mismatches in the cash flow of their receipts and payments. This is guided under Section 17 5 of RBI Act, 1934, and are ..repayable in each case not later than three months from the date of making that advance . There are two types of WMA normal and special. While Normal WMA are clean advances, Special WMA are secured advances provided against the pledge of government of India dated securities. The operative limit for special WMA for a state is subject to its holdings of central government dated securities up to a maximum of limit sanctioned. In addition, the RBI has determined limits for normal and special WMA for each state as multiples of the prescribed minimum balance required to be maintained with the RBI by that state. These limits have been revised periodically. These are temporary advances overdrafts extended by RBI to the govt. Section 17 5 of RBI Act allows RBI to make WMA both to the Central and State Govt. Objective to bridge the interval between expenditure and receipts. They are not a sources of finance but are meant to provide support, for purely temporary difficulties that arise on account of mismatch shortfall in revenue or other receipts for meeting the govt. liabilities. They have to be periodically adjusted to enable use of such financing for future mis matches. When did it start ? On March 26, 1997, Govt. of India and RBI signed an agreement putting the ad hoc T bills system to end w.e.f April 1, 1997. Interest rate The interest rate on WMA is at or around bank rate with small adjustment for different kinds of WMA for State Govt. and overdrawing if any carries 2 higher interest.

It is a branch of astrophysics that specializes in exploiting and explaining the detailed measurements that are possible only for our closest star. It intersects with many disciplines of pure physics , astrophysics , and computer science , including fluid dynamics , plasma physics including magnetohydrodynamics , seismology , particle physics , atomic physics , nuclear physics , stellar evolution , space physics , spectroscopy , radiative transfer , optics applied optics , signal processing , computer vision , and computational physics . Because the Sun is uniquely situated for close range observing other stars cannot be resolved with anything like the spatial or temporal resolution that the Sun can , there is a split between the related discipline of observational astrophysics of distant stars and observational solar physics. The Solar Physics Division of the American Astronomical Society boasts about 600 members in 2008 , compared to several thousand in the parent organization. A major thrust of current 2009 effort in the field of solar physics is integrated understanding of the entire solar system including the Sun and its effects throughout interplanetary space within the heliosphere and on planet s and planetary atmosphere s.
