Government Budget – ప్రభుత్వ బడ్జెట్ అనేది Public Finance మరియు Financial Administrationలో అత్యంత ముఖ్యమైన అంశం. ప్రభుత్వం రాబోయే financial yearలో పొందబోయే receipts మరియు చేయబోయే expenditureకు సంబంధించిన financial statement లేదా financial planను Government Budget అంటారు.
Government Budget is a financial statement showing the expected receipts and proposed expenditure of the Government for the coming financial year.
Budget అనే పదం French పదమైన “Bougette” నుంచి వచ్చింది. దీని అర్థం small bag, pouch లేదా wallet.
Bougette → Small Bag / Pouch → Budget
Indian Constitutionలో “Budget” అనే పదాన్ని ఉపయోగించలేదు. దానికి బదులుగా “Annual Financial Statement” అనే పదాన్ని ఉపయోగించారు.

Revenue మరియు expenditure relationship ఆధారంగా Government Budgetను మూడు ప్రధాన రకాలుగా classify చేస్తారు.
Estimated Government Revenue/Receipts మరియు Estimated Government Expenditure equalగా ఉన్నప్పుడు Balanced Budget అంటారు.
Classical economists, including Adam Smith, balanced budgetను support చేశారు.
Modern welfare Governmentsకు expenditure requirements ఎక్కువగా ఉండటం వల్ల balanced budget policy అన్ని పరిస్థితుల్లో suitable కాకపోవచ్చు.
Estimated Government Receipts, Estimated Government Expenditure కంటే ఎక్కువగా ఉంటే Surplus Budget.
Study material ప్రకారం inflation సమయంలో surplus budget useful కావచ్చు.
Surplus Budget → Inflationary Situation
Estimated Government Expenditure, anticipated Government Receipts కంటే ఎక్కువగా ఉన్నప్పుడు Deficit Budget.
Study material ప్రకారం depression సమయంలో Government expenditureను పెంచి economic activity మరియు employmentను stimulate చేయడానికి deficit budget useful కావచ్చు.
Deficit Budget → Depression / Development
| Budget | Relationship | Textbook Association |
|---|---|---|
| Balanced | R = E | Classical approach |
| Surplus | R > E | Inflation control |
| Deficit | R < E | Depression / Development |
R = E → Balanced
R > E → Surplus
R < E → Deficit
Uploaded study materialలో additional classifications కూడా ఉన్నాయి.
Proposed expenditure మరియు anticipated revenue equalగా లేకపోతే Unbalanced Budget.
Surplus Budget OR Deficit Budget
Full financial yearకు regular budget prepare చేయడంలో delay ఉన్నప్పుడు, short/interim period కోసం prepared budgetను Interim Budget అంటారు.
Normal circumstancesలో సాధారణ annual financial period కోసం prepared budgetను Ordinary Budget అంటారు.
Regular budgetలో provision చేయని additional expenditure అవసరమైనప్పుడు లేదా existing provision సరిపోనప్పుడు additional financial requirements కోసం Supplementary Budget prepared చేయవచ్చు.
War, severe depression, natural calamities వంటి extraordinary emergency situationsను ఎదుర్కొనేందుకు prepared budgetను Emergency Budget అంటారు.
Full Budgetకు legislative process పూర్తయ్యే ముందు Government expenditure కొనసాగించడానికి temporary authorization అవసరమైనప్పుడు Vote on Account ఉపయోగిస్తారు.
Interim Budget మరియు Vote on Accountను identical conceptsగా గుర్తుపెట్టుకోవద్దు. Examలో రెండింటి మధ్య distinction అడగవచ్చు.
✓ Regulation of Government finances
✓ Allocation of resources
✓ Economic development
✓ Income and wealth redistribution
✓ Economic stabilization
✓ Management of public expenditure
✓ Mobilisation of public revenue
