LUCKNOW: In the fiscal year 2021-22, Uttar Pradesh succeeded in improving its revenue collection through its own sources. The total tax receipts in 2021-22 increased to Rs 1.48 lakh crore. In the previous fiscal (2020-21), the state had managed Rs 1.23 lakh crore.
Though revenue collection went up year-on-year (YoY) by 20%, it is significantly lower than the target of Rs 1.80 lakh crore. Every year, the state government strives to meet its expenses through receipts and bring down the fiscal deficit.
