Central govt's borrowings likely to touch Rs 14.8 lakh crore in FY24: Icra

13 Jan 2023 Evaluate

Icra Ratings in its latest report has said that the Centre as well as state governments are likely to budget for higher market borrowings next fiscal (FY24) even though the Union Budget may peg a lower-than-expected fiscal deficit at 5.8 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP).

It anticipated that higher redemptions will lead to gross market borrowings of the Centre and states to rise to Rs 14.8 lakh crore and Rs 24.4 lakh crore, respectively, in FY24 from Rs 14.1 lakh crore and Rs 22.1 lakh crore, respectively, in FY23. Moreover, it said the Centre is expected to peg its FY24 fiscal deficit at 5.8 per cent of the GDP, a healthy moderation from 6.4 per cent of GDP projected for FY23.

According to Aditi Nayar, chief economist at the agency, with a global growth slowdown looming large, Budget 2024 needs to focus on sustaining the domestic growth momentum, while at the same time demonstrating a continued commitment towards fiscal consolidation in addition to limiting the rise in market borrowings. She also expects the forthcoming budget enhancing the Central capital expenditure to Rs 8.5-9 lakh crore.
