Military Pay Master General, Purser General and Pay Master General were the fore-runners of Commissary General, in modern parlance Controller of Defence Accounts.
Defence Accounts Department has evovled over the last 250 years and is now incharge of the payments, accounting, financial compilation of reports, internal financial advice and internal audit of the expenditure and receipts of Army, Navy, Air Force, Ordnance Factories, Research & Development Organisation and Inter-Service Organisations.
