About the Budget

1. The budget is arranged fund wise- Revenue and Capital Fund, Water Supply and Drainage Fund and Elementary Education Fund. For each fund, the budget estimates are given account head wise. The grouping is therefore account head wise. We have followed the same grouping given in the budget document. There are no function/department wise estimates in the budget document.
2. The codes given in the budget document do not tally with the account codes given in the state accounting manual.
3. The Elementary Education Fund in the budget document does not have details of major codes. Hence we have also not coded them.
4. The closing balances in the summary sheet of the budget document are incorrect for the years 2012-13 (actuals) and 2013-14 (actuals).
5. Details relating to urban poor are given as part of budget estimates. The same have been captured in the data set. They have additionally been disclosed separately.
6. Details regarding JNNURM receipts and Expenditure are shown separately. The JNNURM receipts are in the form of Grants from the Central, State Government and receipts from the PPP mode. There are also internal contributions from the Water Supply and Sewerage Fund and the Revenue Fund of the Municipal Corporation. These receipts and expenditure have not been captured in calculating the closing balance. This is in line with the approach taken in the budget document. As such the receipts and expenditure are matching and therefore do not impact the cash balances.
7. The Loan repayments, details of advances and deposits have been shown separately in the budget document. In the summary sheet, the loan repayments have been shown as part of capital account. Advances and deposits have been shown as part of extraordinary account.
8. There are scores of acronyms in the budget document. We have done our best to interpret them, but have not been able to interpret all of them.
