What are supplementary, additional or excess grants?
As per Article 115 of the Constitution of India, supplementary, additional, or excess grants are required when the amount authorized by a law for a particular service for the current financial year is found to be insufficient, when a need arises during the current financial year for supplementary or additional expenditure upon some new service, or when any money has been spent on any service during a financial year in excess of the amount granted for that service and for that year. In such cases, the President causes another statement to be laid before both Houses of Parliament, showing the estimated amount of that expenditure, or presents a demand for such excess to the House of the People.
