The government released two instalments of tax devolution to states totalling over ₹ 1.16 lakh crore to help accelerate their capital expenditure as against normal monthly devolution of ₹ 58,333 crore. This would help strengthen the hands of states to accelerate their capital and developmental expenditure. Currently, 41 per cent of taxes collected by the Centre is devolved in 14 instalments among states in a fiscal year. Tax Devolution - It is based on a formulaic transfer of resources to states, determined by the Finance Commission. The tax devolution formula is based on the principles of need, equity, and efficiency. In other words, the formula is progressive – states in need of higher assistance receive a larger share of funds devolved.
