Where Your Rupee Goes

India's Union Budget for 2026-27 handles about ₹68.8 lakh crore. Follow every rupee from the taxes and borrowing that raise it, through the Consolidated Fund of India, and out to where it is spent, including the 22 paise that go straight to state governments. The height of every bar and ribbon is money, drawn to the same scale.

Following ₹100. Type any tax you paid, income tax or even your yearly GST, to turn every number into your own rupees.

Figures follow the official "rupee comes from / rupee goes to" chart in Budget at a Glance, Union Budget 2026-27 (Budget Estimates, presented 1 February 2026), with rupee values derived from a total flow of about ₹68.8 lakh crore. The 22 paise states' share is deducted from gross tax revenue before the centre's own ₹53.5 lakh crore expenditure, which is why headlines quote the smaller number; this chart counts it, as the government's own chart does. Sub-programme figures are approximate. Personal amounts treat every rupee you paid as buying an equal slice of every rupee spent, so your amounts add up to exactly what you paid.

How to read this: rupees flow from the sources on the left into the Consolidated Fund and out to the spending heads on the right. Bar and ribbon heights are proportional to money. The hatched flow is borrowed: 24 paise of every rupee, the single largest source. Hover anything for amounts and your share. Click a bar to see what is inside it.
