Under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat package in May 2020, the central government declared openly that the states will be furnished with an enhanced borrowing of 2 per cent of GSDP which is around Rs 4.28 L Crore, in 2020-2021.

In the financial year 2022, the centre has imposed the borrowing limit for States to 4% of GSDP including 50 basis points that are linked to CAPEX goals. The PM further stated that this Aatmanirbhar Bharat package is a “new model of reforms by conviction and incentives”. 

The states were allowed excess funds only on fulfilment of four reforms, they are as follows:-

  • One nation one ration card system, which will benefit the migrant labourers to fetch subsidized food grain anywhere in the country.
  • Business licences are to be automatically renewed online in a non-discretionary manner.
  • Property taxes and fees to be charged on utilities like water to strengthen revenues of urban local bodies.
  • Power sector reforms instead of free electricity to farmers will stimulate the State Power distribution firm’s finances.
