As per the modified terms and conditions, as highlighted in a press release issued by the TTD, the privileges and facilities would be available to the donors only during his/her lifetime in the case of individuals and for only 20 years in the case of joint donors, firms and companies, etc. A passbook also would be issued to the donors for posting of entries every year about the date of the visit of the donor, privileges enjoyed and so on so that it served as a record and avoided confusion.

Darshan for five persons through the Vaikuntam Queue Complex cellar for three days in a calendar year. It need not be three consecutive days, the press note pointed out.
