Budget 2023-24: The Summary

Metropolis Report –

Bangladesh has proposed an ambitious budget of roughly Tk 7.61 trillion for the fiscal year 2023–2024, an increase in spending of 15% over the amended budget for the previous year.

To create a “Smart Bangladesh”, Finance Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal on Thursday proposed an expansionary budget to parliament.

The finance minister increased the revised budget’s tax collection target by 16 percent to Tk 4.30 trillion, which will be collected by the National Board of Revenue. This accounts for about 56.4 percent of the overall expense. The budget estimates that revenues will cover Tk 5.04 billion in expenses.

As a result, the government has a budget imbalance of 2.61 trillion Tk, which is a record and represents 5.2% of GDP.

Finance Minister Kamal plans to borrow Tk 1.32 trillion from Bangladesh’s banking sector in addition to Tk 1.02 trillion from foreign lenders and Tk 1.55 trillion from domestic lenders to cover the deficit.
