Finance ministry curbs spending by depts to help fight Covid

财政部控制各部门的支出，以抗击新冠疫情

NEW DELHI: The finance ministry on Wednesday imposed spending checks on several departments, ranging from education and home to telecom and power, as part of a cash management exercise due to the “evolving” Covid-19 situation and the Centre’s cash management requirements.

新德里：鉴于新冠肺炎疫情“不断演变”和印度政府的现金管理要求，印度财政部周三对教育、家庭、电信和电力等多个部门进行支出检查，作为现金管理的一部分。

While these departments can at best spend 20% of their annual allocation during July-September, 19 departments, such as health, pharma, fertiliser, rural development, agriculture and farmers’ welfare, road transport and railways will not face any restrictions.

虽然这些部门在7月至9月最多只能花费其年度拨款的20%，但卫生、制药、化肥、农村发展、农业和农民福利、公路运输和铁路等19个部门将不会面临任何限制。

The move came as the latest numbers released by the Controller General of Accounts estimated the Centre’s fiscal deficit at Rs 1.23 lakh crore or 8.2% of the full year target for 2021-22 at the end of May as tax and non-tax revenues gathered strength and spending remained under control. During April-May, revenue receipts were estimated at 19.6% of the target, compared with 2.2% a year ago when the country was in the grip of a strict lockdown.

印度审计长发布的最新数据估计，随着税收和非税收收入的增长，支出仍在控制之下，印度政府的财政赤字为1.23万亿卢比，相当于5月底2021-2022财年全年目标的8.2%。今年4月至5月，财政收入预计达到目标的19.6%，而去年同期为2.2%，当时印度处于严格封锁之中。

While the Centre had said that it wants to push spending, the focus is on asset-creating capital expenditure as well as priority sectors such as health and pharma.

印度政府说希望推动支出，但重点是创造资产的资本支出以及卫生和制药等优先部门。

Wednesday’s measures indicate that the government expects a higher-than-budgeted spend, although its stimulus measures are estimated to have only increased the spending by around Rs 1.5 lakh crore over the budget estimates. But it signals that by checking non-essential spending, the government will try to rein in fiscal deficit at 6.8% of GDP.

周三的措施表明，政府预计支出将高于预算，尽管其刺激措施估计仅比预算增加了约1.5万亿卢比。但这表明，通过控制非必要支出，政府将努力将财政赤字控制在GDP的6.8%。

Good to not include caps for pharma and healthcare. However, India's debt to GDP ratio has increased to almost 90% since the start of the pandemic.
