Fiscal policy is the set of principles and decisions of a government regarding the level of public expenditure and mode of financing them.
It is about the effort of government to influence the economy’s output, employment and prices by altering the level of public expenditure, taxation and public debt.

• The importance of fiscal policy in modern economies arises from the fact that the State under democracy is called upon to play an active and important role in promoting economic development and providing a vast number of essential public utilities and services like drinking water, sanitation, civil services, primary education, public health, social welfare, defence, etc.
• Most of these goods are characterized by the property viz. non-marketable; that it cannot be sold in the market to the consumer. But payment has to be regulated in another way, through taxation.

• In the underdeveloped economies, public finance has to assume yet another role, whereas in developed economies, it aims at maintaining economic stability. In underdeveloped economies, desirous of achieving rapid economic development, the function of public finance is to promote rapid economic development of the country, besides maintaining economic stability.

Three Possible Stances & Methods of Funding
A Neutral position applies when the budget outcome has neutral effect on the level of economic activity where the govt. spending is fully funded by the revenue collected from the tax. Where, G = T
An Expansionary position is when there is a higher budget deficit where the govt. spending is higher than the revenue collected from the tax. Where, G > T
An Contractionary position is when there is a lower budget deficit where the govt. spending is lower than the revenue collected from the tax. Where, G < T
G-Govt. SpendingT-Tax Revenue

CONCLUSIONS• Macro-economic circumstances have improved
dramatically in India, provided that fiscal discipline is maintained, India’s debt dynamics will consequently remain exceptionally favourable going forward.
• India must also reverse the trajectory of recent years and move toward the golden rule of eliminating revenue deficits and ensuring that, over the cycle, borrowing is only for capital formation.
