between the Union and the States. Over the years, this dynamic has evolved, influenced by economic reforms, political shifts, and institutional changes. In 2025, as India aspires to become a developed nation by 2047, understanding the nuances of fiscal federalism becomes imperative.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Understanding_Fiscal_Federalism_in_India\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Understanding Fiscal Federalism in India<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Fiscal federalism refers to the financial relations between units of governments in a federal system. In India, this encompasses the distribution of taxation powers, expenditure responsibilities, and financial transfers between the Centre and the States. The Constitution provides a framework for this distribution, with the Finance Commission playing a pivotal role in recommending the sharing of central taxes and grants-in-aid.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Current_Fiscal_Landscape\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Current Fiscal Landscape<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Union Budget 2025-26 Highlights:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Total Receipts (excluding borrowings):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u20b934.96 lakh crore<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Total Expenditure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u20b950.65 lakh crore<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Net Tax Receipts:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u20b928.37 lakh crore<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Fiscal Deficit:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 4.4% of GDP<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Capital Expenditure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u20b911.21 lakh crore (3.1% of GDP)\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">These figures underscore the Centre&#8217;s commitment to fiscal consolidation while ensuring substantial capital investment to spur economic growth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Challenges_in_Fiscal_Federalism\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b>Challenges in Fiscal Federalism<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b> Vertical Imbalance:<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">A significant challenge in India&#8217;s fiscal federalism is the vertical imbalance, where the Centre controls a larger share of revenue sources but the States bear the brunt of expenditure responsibilities. As per recent data, the Union commands 63% of national fiscal resources but is responsible for only 38% of total public expenditure. Conversely, States, with just 37% of resources, shoulder 62% of public expenditure, leading to fiscal stress at the state level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><b> Dependence on Centrally Sponsored Schemes (CSS):<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">States often rely heavily on CSS for funding critical sectors like health, education, and agriculture.
