However, if leased accommodation is not being utilized by the Railways, an amount equivalent to leased accommodation or HRA of the officer retaining the accommodation, whichever is higher, may be deposited with concerned Zonal Railway by DFCCIL.

3. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
