fiscal deficit target of 5.9% of gross domestic product (GDP) for 2023-24. The demands involve gross additional spending of more than ₹1.29 lakh crore in this fiscal, a significant chunk of which, ₹70,968 crore, will be met through savings or enhanced receipts of various ministries and departments, according to the papers tabled in both houses of Parliament.
