Much of the additional expenditure is being rolled over to next financial year, while the tax and dividend income to accrue next year is being brought forward into this year's books. The aim is to ensure the fiscal deficit 'red line' drawn by Finance Minister P Chidambaram — of 4.8 per cent of gross domestic product — is not breached.
