Government Revenue Exceeds NPR 1.1 Trillion, Capital Expenditure Lags at 35% as Fiscal Year Nears End

With just 19 days remaining in the current fiscal year, the government has collected over NPR 1.112 trillion in revenue, achieving 75.17% of its annual target of NPR 1.48 trillion. While this shows a steady pace in government income, the stark reality is that capital expenditure stands at a mere 35%. This significant disparity signals potential delays in development projects and a slowdown in overall economic activities. For the everyday Nepalese investor, low capital expenditure often translates to reduced market liquidity and dampened investor sentiment, impacting sectors like NEPSE. The challenge now lies in accelerating spending and meeting the remaining revenue target in the few days left.
