3. (Q) Annual Reports
A descriptive account of the activities of each Ministry/Department during the
year 2012-2013 is given in the document Annual Report which is brought out
separately by each Ministry/Department and circulated to Members of Parliament
at the time of discussion on the Demands for Grants.
3. (R) Economic Survey
The Economic Survey brings out the economic trends in the
country which facilitates a better appreciation of the mobilisation of resources
and their allocation in the Budget. The Survey analyses the trends in
agricultural and industrial production, infrastructure, employment, money
supply, prices, imports, exports, foreign exchange reserves and other relevant
economic factors which have a bearing on the Budget, and is presented to the
Parliament ahead of the Budget for the ensuing year.
The Budget of the Central Government is not merely a statement of receipts and
expenditure. Since Independence, with the launching of Five Year Plans, it has
also become a significant statement of government policy. The Budget reflects
and shapes, and is, in turn, shaped by the country's economy. For a better
appreciation of the impact of government receipts and expenditure on the other
sectors of the economy, it is necessary to group them in terms of economic
magnitudes, for example, how much is set aside for capital formation, how much
is spent directly by the Government and how much is transferred by Government to
other sectors of the economy by way of grants, loans, etc. This analysis is
contained in the Economic and
Functional Classification of the Central Government Budget which is brought out
by the Ministry of Finance separately
