Subscribe to IAS APPSC TSPSC Lectures Channel @ Youtube Back to Basics: Revenue Deficit    

Revenue deficit is a result of a mismatch between expected revenue and expenditure Revenue deficit arises when government’s actual net receipts are lower than the projected receipts On the other hand, if the actual receipts are higher than projected by the government, the situation is termed as revenue surplus It should be noted that revenue deficit does not mean the actual loss of revenue.

Let’s understand the same with the help of an example.  If the government spends Rs 100 and earns Rs 125, the net revenue will be Rs 25.  However, if the government has estimated expenditure at Rs 100, and earning at Rs 130, than its expected revenue would be set at Rs 30. But, since the actual earning is Rs 25, the it will lead to a revenue deficit of Rs 5 (Expected Revenue Rs 30- Achieved Revenue Rs 25). Back to Basics: Fiscal Deficit   





Fiscal deficit is the difference of government expenditure and government revenue.(assume that government expenditure is more than revenue). More fiscal deficit means government has no money, he has to borrow money from central bank or through some bond/scheme. If government is borrowing from RBI, in other words RBI has to print more money, so it will increase the liquidity of money in the market. So people will have more money in their hand,but we have limited resources. For example, before there was 5 car buyers for 1 car, now there is 10 car buyer for 1 car. So demand for car will increase and it will increase the price of car. So price of everything will go up. Ultimately Inflation will go up. If government is borrowing money from people as bond or some scheme through, government has to pay high interest after some year. So people will invest their money in government schemes, so liquidity of the money will come down. Before we have 5 car buyer for 1 car, now we have 2 car buyer for 1 car, so car price will go down. Price of everything will go down, people will buy less things. It will slow down the industrial growth and it will be deflation in the country. It will make economic growth sluggish. And in the situation of the deflation, Government has to pay high interest to the people. Third case, government has to borrow money from world bank or from some other country. Because of that Government has to devalue it’s currency.

As government has no money, government can’t bring any new development scheme. It will become difficult to tackle any crisis over country.
