Important Observations:
The State achieved the target of elimination of revenue deficit from 2011-12 onwards. However, it turned revenue deficit at ₹ 22,548 crore in 2020-21 against the projections of revenue surplus of ₹ 789 crore made in the Medium-Term Fiscal Policy Statement (MTFPS) target for 2020-21.
At the end of 2020-21, fiscal deficit as percentage to GSDP stood at 2.44 per cent, which was within the limit of three per cent target set in Gujarat Fiscal Responsibility Act by State Government.
In the fiscal consolidation roadmap, the State Government could maintain the percentage of public debt to GSDP at 18.01 per cent during 2020-21 against the target of 15.72 per cent set out in MTFPS.
During 2020-21, 63 per cent of revenue receipts came from State’s own resources. The State’s own tax revenue decreased by ₹ 8,741 crore (11.06 per cent) in 2020-21 over the previous year, while non-tax revenue decreased by ₹ 7,611 crore (42.04 per cent) over the previous year
Against total budgetary provision of ₹ 2,28,776 crore during 2020-21, an expenditure of ₹ 2,00,216 crore was incurred. This resulted in net savings of ₹ 28,561 crore (savings of ₹ 30,280 crore offset by an excess of ₹ 1,719 crore).
