Committed expenditure: Committed expenditure of a state typically includes expenditure on payment of salaries, pension, and interest.  A larger proportion of the budget allocated for committed expenditure items limits the state’s flexibility to decide on other expenditure priorities, such as capital outlay.  In 2026-27, Haryana is estimated to spend Rs 81,686 crore on committed expenditure, which is 56% of its estimated revenue receipts.  This comprises spending on salaries (24% of revenue receipts), pension (12%), and interest payments (20%).  In 2024-25, as per actual figures, 63% of revenue receipts were spent on committed expenditure items.

Subsidies and Transfers

The 16th Finance Commission observed that Haryana had budgeted to spend 2.4% of GSDP on subsidies and transfers in 2025-26.  This was lower than average allocation by 21 states towards subsidies and transfers in 2025-26 (2.7% of GSDP).  Subsidies and Transfers as % of GSDP increased in Haryana between 2018-19 and 2025-26.  This Increase is driven by increase in cash transfers, and food and agriculture subsidies.  In 2025, Deen Dayal Lado Lakshmi Yojana was launched which provides cash transfer of Rs 2,100 per month to eligible women.  Power subsidy saw a decline compared to the 2018-19 level.

Deficits and Debt in 2026-27

The Haryana Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management Act, 2005 provides annual targets to progressively reduce the outstanding liabilities, revenue deficit and fiscal deficit of the state government.

Rush of expenditure towards the end of the financial year

CAG (2025) observed that significant share of expenditure was incurred towards the end of the financial year.  Out of total expenditure of Rs 5,139 crore incurred in 2023-24 under select heads, Rs 2,089 crore (41%) was spent in March 2024. 

Budgetary guidelines generally prescribe that not more than 30% of annual expenditure should be incurred in the last quarter to ensure balanced spending.  CAG noted that 63% of the total expenditure in these cases was incurred in the fourth quarter.  Under Housing, Rs 238 crore (57%) of the total expenditure (Rs 419 crore) was incurred in the fourth quarter.  Similarly, 87% of the total expenditure on project for Medium Irrigation (Rs 222 crore) was incurred during the last quarter.  CAG noted that rush of expenditure at the end of the year may indicate weaknesses in expenditure planning and is considered a breach of financial propriety.

Revenue balance:  It is the difference of revenue expenditure and revenue receipts.  A revenue deficit implies that the government needs to borrow to finance those expenses which do not increase its assets or reduces its liabilities.  The budget estimates a revenue deficit of Rs 13,188 crore (0.9% of the GSDP) in 2026-27.  Haryana has incurred a revenue deficit in all years since 2020-21.

Fiscal deficit:  It is the excess of total expenditure over total receipts.  This gap is filled by borrowings and leads to an increase in total liabilities.  In 2026-27, the fiscal deficit is estimated to be 2.7% of GSDP (Rs 40,293 crore).  The 16th Finance Commission has recommended the annual fiscal deficit limit for states to be 3% of GSDP for the 2026-31 period.  50-year interest free loans for capital expenditure given by the central government will be excluded to arrive at the borrowing ceiling.  In 2026-27, central capex loans are budgeted at Rs 2,200 crore (0.14% of GSDP).  As per the revised estimates, in 2025-26, the fiscal deficit of the state is expected to be 2.7% of GSDP, same as the budget estimate (2.7% of GSDP). 

Outstanding liabilities:  Outstanding liabilities is the accumulation of total borrowings at the end of a financial year.  It also includes any liabilities on public accounts such as provident funds.  At the end of 2026-27, outstanding liabilities is estimated to be 25.8% of GSDP, marginally higher than the revised estimate for 2025-26 (25.7% of GSDP).

Outstanding Government Guarantees:  Outstanding liabilities of states do not include a few other liabilities that are contingent in nature, which states may have to honour in certain cases.  State governments guarantee the borrowings of State Public Sector Enterprises (SPSEs) from financial institutions.  As of March 2025, the state’s outstanding guarantee is estimated to be Rs 23,932 crore (1.96% of GSDP).

Annexure 1:  Comparison of states’ expenditure on key sectors

The graphs below compare Haryana’s expenditure in 2026-27 on six key sectors as a proportion of its total expenditure on all sectors.  The average for a sector indicates the average expenditure in that sector by 31 states (including Haryana) as per their budget estimates of 2025-26.[1]

  • Education: Haryana has allocated 12.6% of its expenditure on education in 2026-27.  This is lower than the average allocation for education by states in 2025-26 (14.5%).

  • Health:  Haryana has allocated 7.1% of its expenditure on health in 2026-27.  This is higher than the average allocation for health by states in 2025-26 (6.2%).

  • Agriculture:  Haryana has allocated 5.4% of its expenditure on agriculture in 2026-27.  This is lower than the average allocation for agriculture by states in 2025-26 (5.7%).
