India's budgetary fiscal deficit for the first seven months of 2017-18 stood at 96.1% -- Rs5.25 lakh crore -- of the full year's target of Rs5.46 lakh crore, official data showed on Thursday. The data furnished by the Comptroller General of Accounts (CGA) showed that April-October fiscal deficit was 79.3% of the budget in the like period of the last fiscal. According to the CGA data, net of tax revenue during the period under review was Rs6.33 lakh crore, or 51.6% of the estimates. The total receipts -- from revenue and non-debt capital -- during the fiscal's first seven months were Rs7.67 lakh crore, or 48% of the estimates for the current year. The data revealed that total expenditure -- incurred on revenue and capital -- during the April-October period was Rs12.92 lakh crore, or at 60.2% of the entire fiscal's estimate.  The 2017-18 deficit -- the difference between revenue and expenditure -- has been pegged at Rs5.46 lakh crore for 2017-18, as compared to the deficit of Rs5.34 lakh crore for the last fiscal. The high fiscal deficit is likely to stoke inflationary pressures and raise interest rates. This in turn would pull back the bulls in the Indian stock markets.
