Ration-card holder lists by FPS and monthly stock-book records are §4(1)(b)(xii) subsidy material.
Fair-price-shop level ration-card holder lists, monthly stock receipt/issue books, and distribution records are §4(1)(b)(xii) material. Any 'irregularity complaint' investigation thereafter becomes a separate §8(1)(h) matter only during its active pendency.
