Budget 2022: Check on fiscal deficit
As India was locked down due to the first wave of Covid, economic activity ground to a halt. That led to a high fiscal deficit of 9.5% in FY21. The fiscal deficit for FY22 is likely to be in the region of 6.3-6.4% against the initial estimate of 6.8%, thanks to a pick-up in economic activity after the second wave of Covid.
