This Week’s Spotlight Story
A deep dive into the headline that defined market conversations.
India’s April-September Fiscal Deficit Widens to ₹5.73 Lakh Crore, Hits 36.5% of FY26 Target
India’s fiscal deficit for the first half of the financial year has widened significantly to ₹5.73 lakh crore, reaching 36.5% of the government’s full-year target of ₹15.69 lakh crore for FY26. This increase reflects a sharp rise from the 29.4% recorded during the same period last year, signaling increased government expenditure even as revenues lag behind expectations. Led by the Ministry of Finance, the government’s data reveals that total receipts during April to September stood at ₹16.95 lakh crore, accounting for 49.6% of the annual budget estimate. Tax revenues comprised ₹12.29 lakh crore, while non-tax revenues, bolstered by a higher dividend transfer from the Reserve Bank of India, contributed ₹4.6 lakh crore. Overall expenditure was ₹23.03 lakh crore, or 45.5% of the budgeted amount, indicating an active capital and revenue spending approach to support growth and infrastructure initiatives.
Despite healthy capital expenditure, concerns remain about the slower pace of revenue collection, with tax revenues standing at 43.3% of the budget estimate. The revenue deficit, however, has reduced sharply to ₹27,147 crore or 5.2% of the budget estimate, showing fiscal consolidation efforts. This fiscal data underscores the balancing act India faces as it pursues sustained growth to become the world’s third-largest economy by 2030.
