The government has revised its capital expenditure target for FY25 down by 8% YoY. The revised target FY25 is Rs 10.18 lakh crore compared to original budgeted Rs 11.11 lakh crore. On the other hand, capex outlay for FY26 has been raised to Rs 11.2 lakh cr, which is higher than the previous year but still below industry expectations.

IDBI Capital Report
With a focus on fiscal consolidation, the government has set a fiscal deficit target at 4.4% for FY26, compared to 4.8% in FY25, which was revised downward from the original target of 4.9%.
This downward trend in the fiscal deficit is a positive indication of the government's commitment to fiscal consolidation. It suggests that central governments borrowings in FY26 will remain relatively stable, which could push bond yields lower.
This creates favorable conditions for the private sector to borrow more at a reduced cost of capital, particularly at a time when private sector capex has been sluggish for various reasons. By strengthening fiscal stability, the government may also aim to improve its sovereign credit rating, potentially in FY26.
