New Delhi: The Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman is scheduled to address the post-budget meeting of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI)’s central board on Monday.

She is expected to highlight the key points of the Union budget for the financial year 2019- 20, including the fiscal consolidation roadmap.

The Union government has lowered the fiscal deficit target to 3.3 per cent of the gross domestic product (GDP) as it is expecting net additional revenue of Rs 6,000 crore over the interim budget estimates.

The government in the interim budget, in February this year, had projected a fiscal deficit of 3.4 per cent of the GDP for the current fiscal.

The Centre also came out with a roadmap to reduce the fiscal deficit — the gap between total expenditure and revenue — to 3 per cent of the gross domestic product (GDP) by 2020-21, and eliminate the primary deficit.

Primary deficit refers to the deficit left after subtracting interest payments from the fiscal deficit.

The union finance minister is also expected to apprise the board of various other announcements made in the budget to spur growth by touching almost all sectors of the economy with the objective of achieving a $5 trillion economy by 2024-25, said an apex bank official.

The budget had announced further opening up of aviation, insurance and media sectors to foreign investment while throwing a lifeline to the struggling non banking finance companies (NBFCs) to boost investment and lending in the economy.

In her budget speech on July 5, the Union finance minister has also proposed measures to improve NBFCs access to funding by providing a limited backstop for the purchase of their assets. The government will provide a partial guarantee to state banks for the acquisition of up to Rs 1 lakh crore of highly-rated assets from non-bank finance companies.

The Reserve Bank of India has been made regulator of housing finance firms as well, replacing the National Housing Bank (NHB). With regard to surplus transfer from the RBI, the budget for the current envisages Rs 90,000 crore as dividend from the central bank of the country in the current financial year.

This will be 32 per cent higher from the previous fiscal, when the central bank paid Rs 68,000 crore to the government, including Rs 28,000 crore as interim dividend.

This was the highest receipt from the apex bank of the country in a single financial year, exceeding the Rs 65,896 crore received in 2015-16 and Rs 40,659 crore in 2017-18.

The RBI follows July-June financial year and usually distributes the dividend in August after annual accounts are finalized. Now all eyes will on what message the Union finance minister conveys to the RBI board on Monday.
