Office of the Controller General of Accounts

Established 1985 via Finance Division Office Memorandum; predecessor is the Office of the Accountant General (Civil), Bangladesh, which dates to 1947 (inherited from the pre-partition Office of the Accountant General). Headquarters: Hishab Bhaban, Segunbagicha, Dhaka-1000. Current head: S M Rezvi (BCS Audit and Accounts cadre, ~29 years' experience), appointed 7 October 2024 per BSS News government announcement; previously served as Deputy Comptroller and Auditor General (Senior) and Director General of the Commercial Audit, Health Audit, and Revenue Audit Directorates. Note on head discrepancy: cafopfm.gov.bd (a CGA subordinate office) shows an older profile for Md. Zahurul Islam (from 2019); that page is stale relative to the October 2024 BSS News appointment report. CGA is administratively under the Finance Division (Ministry of Finance) but takes general technical guidance on accounting principles from the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) -- it does not report to CAG for administrative purposes. iBAS++ (launched FY2018-19 for new Budget and Accounting Classification System codes; predecessor iBAS from FY2017-18) covers budget distribution, bill submission, online payment, EFT disbursement, GPF management, and financial reporting across line ministries, departments, and field offices. 1.4 million EFT figure sourced from iBAS++ brochure (Finance Division/SPFMS); reflects government employees receiving salary by direct bank credit. OCAFO Pension and Fund Management (cafopfm.gov.bd) established 13 August 2018 as a CGA subordinate office for civil service pension EFT. FY2025-26 budget total of Tk 790,000 crore and ADP of Tk 208,900 crore are from the Finance Division's budget summary. All fiscal execution figures (ADP utilisation, revenue shortfall, bank borrowing) are from Financial Express and Bangla Mirror News citing IMED and Finance Division data, consistent with the Monthly Fiscal Reports series at mof.gov.bd.
