Fiscal Discipline and Public Investment Efficiency in Telangana: Pathways to the Viksit 2047 Economy
Abstract
Telangana's pursuit of the ambitious $3 trillion GSDP 'Vikasit 2047' vision requires a fundamental pivot in its fiscal strategy. The state must transition it’s approximately ₹4.5 lakh crore public debt from consumption funding to productive capital expenditure. While key fiscal indicators like the Fiscal Deficit (FD/GSDP) (~3.0%) and Debt-toGSDP ratio (~29.3%) remain within statutory limits, the long-term sustainability is threatened by contingent liabilities (off-budget borrowings by PSUs). If absorbed, these liabilities could significantly strain the budget.
