The country's real gross domestic product (GDP) is likely to expand by 11 percent in the next financial year due to a faster economic recovery and on a low base, says a report. The report by domestic rating agency Brickwork Ratings said economic activities are slowly reaching PRE-COVID levels following the relaxation of the lockdown, except in sectors that remain affected by social distancing norms. "With progress in developing an effective vaccine for COVID-19 and signals of faster-than-expected recovery in the domestic economy, and also supported by a low base, we expect the real GDP to grow at 11 percent in F/Y 22, from the estimated contraction of 7 percent to 7.5 percent in F/Y 21," the agency said. According to the first advance estimates of national income released by the National Statistical Office (NSO), the country's GDP is estimated to contract by a record 7.7 percent during the current financial year. |

Union Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, allocated ₹3,100 crores for the ministry out of which ₹460 crores were allotted to control pollution, which is the same as the money it received in the last budget. Control of pollution has been conceptualized to provide financial assistance to Pollution Control Boards/Committees and funding to National Clean Air Programme (NCAP). Similarly, the budget for pollution abatement, which was cut by 50 percent last year from 2018-to 19, remained unchanged at ₹10 crores. The minister also announced that states, which are formulating and implementing plans for ensuring cleaner air in cities above one million population should be encouraged.
