The difference between the cost and revenue is equivalent to the subsidy for each of the products   mentioned above where the cost is more than the revenue. 

 

In the inherent norms for opening of post offices, subsidies are inbuilt as post offices in hilly, tribal, desert and remote areas are opened even if they cover just 15% of their costs, in normal areas if they cover 33.33 % of cost.
