02-Feb-2026

The government’s gross borrowing through dated securities will be Rs 17.2 lakh crore in 2026-27, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced in her Budget proposals. The net borrowing from dated securities is estimated at Rs 11.7 lakh crore. The balance financing is expected to come from small savings and other sources, Sitharaman said. The gross borrowing is higher than the expected level, which could negatively weigh on the market.
