Overview

As a major maritime nation, India's vital economic and security interest are linked to the seas. It is, therefore, essential to maintain naval forces that are not only adequate but also have the combat edge to meet contemporary threats. To ensure seaworthiness and operational fitness of its fleet, Navy undertakes various types of repairs and refits of its ships. These repairs and refits are to be undertaken in accordance with Operational-cum-Refit Cycle (OCRC) as promulgated by Integrated Headquarters [IHQ MoD (Navy)] and Ministry of Defence (MoD).

The Performance Audit (PA) covers the period 2005-06 to 2009-10 and was initiated by discussing its scope, objectives and criteria with various management levels at the MoD and IHQ MoD (Navy). Our conclusions are based upon the audit conducted at various Directorates at IHQ MoD (Navy), Naval Dockyards (ND) and Naval Ship Repair Yards (NSRY). This Report has six chapters. Chapter 1 is introductory in nature. Chapters 2 to 5 contain audit findings. In Chapter 6, the conclusions have been summarised.

The PA report was issued to the MOD and IHQ MOD (Navy) in December 2011 and June 2012. The reply from the Ministry was awaited as of November 2013. Our findings were finalised with reference to the replies furnished by the NDs/NSRYs and various Directorates of IHQ MoD(Navy).
