Local named facts include Maharashtra SSC, Hinjawadi, GST, PMPML. Instrument: operational finance beside, not inside, the pupil ledger. INR tuition with GST on transport and activity heads. April academic year; monsoon weeks still need official working-day exceptions.

A general ledger may still live in the accountant’s system. Operational bills can still be tracked next to the school record. Statutory accounts stay with the accountant. Do not treat operational finance as a P&L. Named owners still have to keep the holiday master, the roster, and the family view aligned in this place, because a brochure paragraph will not survive the first mid-year joiner or the first board week.
