The Reserve Bank of India today released Compendium CD of Articles on State Finances from 1950-51 to 2010-11. The Reserve Bank of India has been bringing out the publication ‘State Finances: A Study of Budgets’ every year since 1950-51 that presents a comprehensive and analytical picture of budgetary operations of State governments. It provides a summarised position of State finances in terms of fiscal indicators such as revenue and fiscal deficits and debt position at the consolidated level as well as at the individual State level. Apart from providing information on issues of topical importance, the publication sets out details of important policy measures undertaken by the State governments, the Centre and the Reserve Bank from time to time. While the articles on State finances published since 2001-02 are already available on RBI’s website, this Compendium CD provides access to all the articles published since 1950-51 to 2010-11 at one place. The Reserve Bank’s publication on State finances has been extensively used by research institutions, policy makers, academicians and students from India and abroad. Availability of the entire series of articles in the compendium CD would provide data on State finances from 1950-51 onwards and facilitate research in this area. Orders for the purchase of Compendium CD can be placed with the Director, Division of Reports and Knowledge Dissemination, Department of Economic and Policy Research, Reserve Bank of India, Amar Building, Sixth Floor, P. M. Road, Mumbai - 400 001.
The very purpose of VITALINFO is to provide a platform for wider dissemination of updated information related to and happening of events in and around RBI.
