b. AADHAAR e-Sign based.
Once OTP / e-Sign is successful, CRA system will check the subscriber's bank details vis a vis the details present in CRA system (also called as penny drop verification)
For successful verifications, CRA system will process the Conditional withdrawal request, without further authorization from the Treasury Office and funds shall be credited to subscriber's verified bank account.
If penny drop verification failed due to mismatching of the details like Name of the subscriber, Bank Account number, IFSC code, Pin code etc... in CRA system while comparing to soft copy uploaded by subscriber, then transaction is unsuccessful.
For un-successful verifications, CRA system will dis message to the subscriber after which he/she will have to rectify the bank details in CRA System. For rectifying the bank details system, the subscriber needs to submit physical request to concerned Nodal office.
Hence, the Deputy Directors of District Treasuries in the State are requested to take necessary action to communicate these information to all the Divisional Sub Treasuries / Sub Treasuries / Drawing and Disbursing Officers under their jurisdiction.
