The Centre’s FY27 capex is firmly on track with no restrictions on departments despite fiscal headwinds from global uncertainties, sources said. “Capex is going on well. We have not restricted anything,” a senior official told FE. For FY27, the Centre has budgeted capital expenditure to rise 14.3% on year to Rs 12.22 lakh crore. Effective capital expenditure, which includes grants-in-aid to states for asset creation, is projected to be Rs 17.1 lakh crore in FY27.
