Annual Financial Statement (AFS)
o provided under Article 112
o shows estimated receipts and expenditure of the Government of India for the following year,
estimates as well as revised estimates for the current year as also expenditure for the previous year
o The receipts and disbursements are shown under the three parts, in which
Government Accounts are kept viz. (i) Consolidated Fund (ii) Contingency Fund and
(iii) Public Account.
o Under the Constitution, Annual Financial Statement distinguishes expenditure on revenue account
from other expenditure. Government Budget, therefore, comprises Revenue Budget and Capital
Budget. The estimates of receipts and expenditure included in the Annual Financial Statement are
for the expenditure net of refunds and recoveries, as will be reflected in the accounts.
It is in this context that the Budget of the Government of India is presented before both the Houses of
Parliament every year.

The Union of India’s Budget
The annual statement of the outlays and tax revenues of the government of India together with the laws and
regulations that approve and support those outlays and tax revenues make up the union budget. The union
budget has two purposes:
1. To finance the activities of the union government
2. To achieve macroeconomic objectives.
The line item budget approach is easy to understand and implement. It also facilitates centralized
control and fixing of authority and responsibility of the spending units. Its major disadvantage is that it
does not provide enough information to the top levels about the activities and achievements of
individual units.
Budgeting is the process of estimating the availability of resources and then allocating them to various
activities of an organization according to a pre-determined priority.

Definition of 'Market Capitalization'
Definition: Market capitalization is the aggregate valuation of the company based on its current share price and the total number of outstanding stocks. It is calculated by multiplying the current market price of the company's share with the total outstanding shares of the company.
Description: Market capitalization is one of the most important characteristics that helps the investor determine the returns and the risk in the share. It also helps the investors choose the stock that can meet their risk and diversification criterion.
For instance, a company has 20 million outstanding shares and the current market price of each share is Rs100. Market capitalization of this company will be 200,00,000 x 100=Rs 200 crore.

The Constitution provides for a Consolidated Fund of India to which all revenues received by way of
loans, advances etc. are credited. The expenditures are embodied in the Budget as:
• The sums required to meet the items of expenditure described by the Constitution as those charged on
the Consolidated Fund of India
• The sums required to meet other expenditures proposed to be made from the Consolidated Fund of
India.
The Budget contains the financial statements of the government embodying the
estimated receipts and expenditure for one financial year, which at present commences on the 1st of April
every year. In other words, it is a proposal of how much money is to be spent on what and how much of it will
be contributed by whom or raised from where during the coming year. The Budget gives estimates for the
ensuing year and offers an opportunity to the government to review and explain its financial and economic
policy and programmes besides enabling the Parliament to discuss and criticize it.
The essential features of the financial procedure followed in India are laid down in the Constitution
which ensures the supremacy of the Lok Sabha in financial matters. Constitution provides that no tax shall be levied or collected except by authority of Parliament and that the President shall, in respect of every financial
year, cause to be laid before both Houses, the Annual Financial Statement.
The use of the union budget to achieve macroeconomic objectives such as employment, sustained
economic growth, and price level stability is called fiscal policy
Zero-based budgeting is a method of budgeting in which all expenses must be justified for each new period. Zero-based budgeting starts from a "zero base" and every function within an organization is analyzed for its needs and costs. Budgets are then built around what is needed for the upcoming period regardless of whether the budget is higher or lower than the previous one.
ZBB allows top-level strategic goals to be implemented into the budgeting process by tying them to specific functional areas of the organization. Costs can be first grouped, then measured against previous results and current expectations.
A Performance Budget gives an indication of how the funds spent are expected to give outputs and
ultimately the outcomes.
The weaknesses of the line item budgeting were sought to be remedied by introducing certain reforms.
Performance budgeting was the first such reform.
The line item budget is defined as “the budget in
which the individual financial statement items are grouped by cost centers or departments .It
shows the comparison between the financial data for the past accounting or budgeting periods and
estimated figures for the current or a future period”

Definition of 'Human Development Index'
Definition: The Human Development Index (HDI) is a statistical tool used to measure a country's overall achievement in its social and economic dimensions. The social and economic dimensions of a country are based on the health of people, their level of education attainment and their standard of living.

t.me/economyupsc
Description: Pakistani economist Mahbub ul Haq created HDI in 1990 which was further used to measure the country's development by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). Calculation of the index combines four major indicators: life expectancy for health, expected years of schooling, mean of years of schooling for education and Gross National Income per capita for standard of living.
Every year UNDP ranks countries based on the HDI report released in their annual report. HDI is one of the best tools to keep track of the level of development of a country, as it combines all major social and economic indicators that are responsible for economic development.
Definition of 'Base Rate'
Definition: Base rate is the minimum rate set by the Reserve Bank of India below which banks are not allowed to lend to its customers.
@cadhan
Description: Base rate is decided in order to enhance transparency in the credit market and ensure that banks pass on the lower cost of fund to their customers. Loan pricing will be done by adding base rate and a suitable spread depending on the credit risk premium.
