Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman addresses media after her meeting with Secretaries and Financial Advisors of key selected Ministries:Tomorrow, we'll have a separate meeting with different agencies of public sector undertaking and other agencies which come under different ministries. At this stage, my intention is to make sure that government does not sit on payments which are due, govt does not sit on CAPEX (capital expenditure) which it had planned. Actual details will be given to you later but 90% of the overdue as on 23rd Aug,when I spoke about GST refund,have been cleared.Hopefully 30-day limit is not crossed and I'm sure Revenue Secy will inform me but even in that we've kept the promise that refunds shall not be delayed.
