Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will launch a new website by NITI Aayog and National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) on State finances.
The portal, named ‘NITI NCAER States Economic Forum,’ will be a data hub covering 30 years (1990-91 to 2022-23).
It includes four main parts: State reports, data repository, fiscal and economic dashboard, and research & commentary.
State reports summarize the fiscal and economic status of 28 States.
The data repository offers categorized data on demography, economy, fiscal matters, health, and education.
The dashboard shows key economic data through graphs.
The research section features studies on State finances and fiscal policies.
The portal aims to improve understanding of economic trends, support data-driven discussions, and enable benchmarking between States and national figures.
