Note : 1. Data for 2009-10 are Revised Estimates and data for 2010-11 are Budget Estimates.
2. Primary Revenue Deficit is Revenue Deficit net of interest payments.
3. Drawdown of cash balances represents conventional budget deficit prior to 1997-98. With discontinuation of the ad hoc treasury bills and 91-day tap treasury bills, the concept of conventional budget deficit has lost its relevance since April 1,1997.
4. Net RBI Credit represents variation over end-March, as per RBI records, after closure of Government accounts.
5. Negative (-) sign indicates surplus.
6. Since 1999-00, Gross Fiscal Deficit excludes States' share in Small Savings as per the new system of accounting.
