Overview

Based on the audited accounts of the Government of Uttar Pradesh for the year ending March 2011, this report provides an analytical review of the Annual Accounts of the State Government. The financial performance of the State has been assessed based on the FRBM Act and its ird Amendment Act, 2011, Budget Documents, Economic Review 2010-11, Thirteenth Finance Commission Report and other financial data obtained from various Government departments and organisations. The report is structured in three Chapters.

Chapter I is based on the audit of Finance Accounts and makes an assessment of Uttar Pradesh Government's fiscal position as on 31 March 2011. It provides an insight into trends in committed expenditure, borrowing pattern, besides a brief account of Central funds transferred directly to the State implementing agencies through off-budget route. Chapter II is based on audit of Appropriation Accounts and it gives the grant-by-grant description of appropriations and the manner in which the allocated resources were managed by the service delivery departments. Chapter III is an inventory of Uttar Pradesh Government's compliance with various reporting requirements and financial rules. The report also has an appendage of additional data collected from several sources in support of the findings. Appendix 4 at the end gives a glossary of selected items related to State economy, as used in this report.
