The upward revision in nominal GDP has given the government scope to increase fiscal deficit, while maintaining its proportion to GDP at budget target, CRISIL noted in a release.
Given the latest update on nominal GDP, the government can increase fiscal deficit by ₹97,080 crore, while sticking to budget target of fiscal deficit at 6.4 per cent of GDP, it said.
This will help accommodate additional capital expenditure and subsidies incurred this year.
