Presenting the first batch of supplementary demand for grants for 2015-16, finance minister Arun Jaitley sought parliamentary approval to authorise gross additional expenditure of Rs 40,821.7 crore. Of this, the proposals involving net cash outgo aggregate to Rs 25,495 crore and gross additional expenditure, matched by savings of the ministries and departments or by enhanced receipts and recoveries account for Rs 15,325.6 crore.

The government has vowed to keep the deficit under control and is determined to keep it within the target of 3.9% of GDP.
