Reuters exclusively reported that India’s federal government may keep its gross market borrowing for 2024/25 close to this fiscal year’s level, as it looks to rein in its borrowings that have more than doubled, mainly due to pandemic spending.

India may peg its gross market borrowing for next fiscal year at between 15 trillion rupees ($180.47 billion) and 15.5 trillion rupees, when Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman presents the federal budget on Feb. 1, the two officials aware of the development told Reuters.
