2024年4月，即2024/25财年的第一个月，印度报告了2.1万亿卢比的预算赤字，而去年同期为2.1万亿卢比。这相当于政府本财政年度预测的12.5%，而去年同期为7.5%。考虑到截至2024年3月的2023/24财政年度，该国的财政赤字为16.54万亿卢比，相当于估计的95.3%。相当于国内生产总值的5.63%，低于全年5.8%的目标。2023/24年的净税收收入高于预期，为23.27万亿卢比，为全年目标的100.1%，而总支出为目标的99%，为44.43万亿卢比。政府在基础设施项目上的资本支出为9.49万亿印度卢比。本财政年度，政府设定了占国内生产总值5.1%的财政赤字目标。

India reported a INR 2.1 trillion budget deficit in April 2024, the first month of the 2024/25 fiscal year, compared to INR 2.1 trillion a year earlier. It represents 12.5% of the government's projection for the current financial year, compared to 7.5% in the same period last year. Considering the 2023/24 fiscal year that ended in March 2024, the country recorded a fiscal deficit of INR 16.54 trillion or 95.3% of the estimate. It is equivalent to 5.63% of the GDP, below the full-year target of 5.8%. Net tax receipts for 2023/24 were higher-than-projected at INR 23.27 trillion, and 100.1% of the full-year target while total expenditure was 99% of the target at INR 44.43 trillion. The government's capital spending on infrastructure projects was INR 9.49 trillion. For the current fiscal year, the government has set a fiscal deficit target of 5.1% of the GDP.

在截至2024年3月的财政年度，印度国内生产总值增长了8.2%，远高于最初的7.3%，并从第二次估计的7.6%上调，以巩固印度作为世界上增长最快的主要经济体的地位。尽管如此，GDP与本财政年度7.2%的总增加值增长有很大差异，这表明GDP的净间接税类别可能夸大了这一指标。

The Indian GDP grew by 8.2% in the financial year ending March of 2024, well above the initial print of 7.3%, and revised higher from the second estimate of 7.6%, to consolidate India as the fastest-growing major economy in the world. Still, the GDP diverged considerably from the 7.2% growth in gross value added in the financial year, indicating that the net indirect tax category of the GDP may have inflated the gauge.

在截至2024年3月的季度，印度经济较上年同期增长7.8%，大大高于最初预测的6.7%，延续了印度经济强劲增长的趋势。结果证实，印度是世界上增长最快的主要经济体，制造业（8.9%对2023财年第四季度的0.9%）、建筑业（8.7%对7.4%）、公共行政、国防和其他服务业（7.8%对4.7%）以及采矿和采石业（4.3%对2.9%）的产出急剧增长。尽管如此，国内生产总值仍明显高于本财政年度最后一个季度6.3%的总增加值增长，这表明国内生产总值的净间接税类别可能连续第二个季度夸大了这一指标。根据最新情况，截至2024年3月的财政年度，印度国内生产总值增长了8.2%。

The Indian economy expanded by 7.8% from the corresponding period of the previous year in the quarter ending March of 2024, sharply above the initial forecasts of a 6.7% expansion, to extend the trend of strong growth for the Indian economy. The result confirmed that India is the world’s fastest-growing major economy, led by the sharp acceleration of output for manufacturing (8.9% vs 0.9% in FYQ4 of 2023), construction (8.7% vs 7.4%), public administration, defense, and other services (7.8% VS 4.7%), and mining and quarrying (4.3% vs 2.9%). Still, the GDP was significantly higher than the 6.3% growth in gross value added in the final quarter of the financial year, indicating that the net indirect tax category of the GDP is likely to have inflated the gauge for a second consecutive quarter. With the update, the Indian GDP grew by 8.2% in the financial year ending March of 2024.

继3月份上调6%后，2024年4月印度基础设施产量同比增长6.2%。天然气（8.6%对6.3%，2024年3月）、炼油产品（3.9%对1.5%）、钢铁（7.1%对6.4%）和电力（9.4%对8.6%）的产量增长率较高，而煤炭（7.5%对8.7%）、原油（1.6%对2%）和水泥（0.6%对10.6%）的产出增长率较低。此外，化肥产量继续下降，但下降速度较慢（-0.8%对-1.3%）。考虑到5月至4月期间，基础设施产出增长7.6%，略低于上一财年同期的7.8%。

Infrastructure output in India increased 6.2% year-on-year in April 2024, following an upwardly revised 6% rise in March. Output increased at a higher rate for natural gas (8.6% vs 6.3% in March 2024), refinery products (3.9% vs 1.5%), steel (7.1% vs 6.4%) and electricity (9.4% vs 8.6%) while output was up at a slower rate for coal (7.5% vs 8.7%), crude oil (1.6% vs 2%) and cement (0.6% vs 10.6%). Moreover, output continued to fall but at a slower pace for fertilizers (-0.8% vs -1.3%). Considering the May to April period, infrastructure output grew 7.6%, slightly less than the 7.8% in the same period of the previous fiscal year.
