Gross and net market borrowings in FY 18 till December 26, 2017 are Rs. 5,21,000 crore and Rs. 3,81,281 crore, excluding buyback/switches, respectively.

  1. The Government will trim down the T-Bills from present collections of Rs. 86,203 Crore to Rs. 25,006 Crore by March end, 2018.
  2. The Government will raise additional market borrowings of Rs. 50,000 crore only in fiscal FY18 through dated Government securities.
  3. The Government will thus, between now and March 2018, not be raising any net additional borrowing (T-Bills will be run down by Rs. 61,203 crore and additional G-Sec borrowing will be Rs. 50,000 crore).
