The following are the major areas of the second phase of economic reforms in
India:
1. Fiscal Policy Reforms:
The Government initiated various fiscal measures in order to reduce the fiscal
deficit from 8.4 per cent of GDP in 1990-91 to 5.0 per cent in 1996-97 and to
3.7 per cent in 2006-2007. In order to achieve this target, the Government
introduced various controls over public expenditure and took initiative to raise
both its tax and non-tax revenue.
The other measures include imposition of fiscal discipline by both Central and
State Governments, reduction of subsidies, developing a more efficient
expenditure system, encouraging state governments to streamline the working
State Enterprise, more particularly State Electricity Boards and State Transport
Corporations and withdrawal of budgetary support to Central public sector
enterprises and to improve their profitability and efficiency.
