Deadline for Entry into Project Bank Extended to April 23

The National Planning Commission has extended the deadline for entering projects into the Project Bank until April 23. The commission made this decision in a meeting held on April 12, based on requests from ministries and agencies for additional time. According to existing regulations, new projects for the fiscal year 2081 must be entered into the Project Bank by the end of the current fiscal year’s mid-March.

Under the National Project Bank (Operation and Management) Standards 2081, new projects to be implemented in the upcoming fiscal year must be registered in the Project Bank by mid-March of the current fiscal year. Initially, the commission had set the deadline as March 15, later extending it to March 22. However, following verbal requests from relevant ministries and agencies citing the need for more preparation time, the commission decided during its meeting on April 12 to further extend the deadline to April 23. Previously, the commission instructed ministries and agencies to correct and enter projects as per the prescribed format, citing non-compliance with the established entry procedure.
