This Report provides an analytical review of the annual accounts of the Government. The Report contains three chapters.

The Chapter 1 on the finances of GNCTD highlights Revenue receipts during 2018-19 increased by 11.50 per cent over the previous year. This was mainly due to increase of grants-in-aid by Rs. 3,660 crore (167.58 per cent) on account of receipt of compensation of Rs. 4,182 crore in lieu of loss of revenue arising out of implementation of GST.  Grants-in-Aid from Government of India increased from Rs. 2,184 crore (2017-18) to Rs. 5,844 crore (2018-19). Total expenditure during 2018-19 increased by 8.35 per cent over the previous year.  Against loans amounting to Rs. 28,011 crore disbursed to Delhi Jal Board during 1998-2019 only Rs. 351 crore was repaid leaving Rs. 27,660 crore outstanding as on 31 March 2019.  As on 31 March 2019, loans amounting to Rs. 2,038 crore, Rs. 1,396 crore and Rs. 319 crore were outstanding against North Delhi Municipal Corporation, East Delhi Municipal Corporation and South Delhi Municipal Corporation respectively.  NCT of Delhi has been able to maintain revenue surplus over the last five years from 2014-15 to 2018-19.
