Finance Minister P Chidambaram tabled down Vote-on-Account in the Parliament today.
Unlike past years, Chidambaram presented Vote-on-Account this time rather than a Full Budget.
For all those unfamiliar with the term ‘Vote-on-Account’, here
is a small article clearly differentiating the former from ‘Full
Budget’.
As the incumbent government lacks adequate time in order to vote
for a full budget before the new financial year begins, Vote-on-Account
is a temporary fiscal measure which guarantees enough funds are at
disposal of the incumbent government so that it can run the country,
till the time fresh government takes seat after elections.
