This not only includes simplification of appraisal and approval processes but also structural changes in the budget-making process itself, such as eliminating the Plan / Non-plan distinction. As a result, the cost centres are being treated in an integrated manner within only the statutory revenue capital framework. This enables another major structural reform, which is to bring public schemes under a monitorable output-outcome framework.  \nSince 2017-18, in addition to the financial outlays of the Ministries/Departments schemes being indicated in the Budget document, the expected outputs and outcomes ofthe schemes are also presented in a consolidated Outcome Budget document, along with the regular Budget. These Outlays, Outputs and Outcomes are being presented to the Parliament in measurable terms, bringing greater accountability to the agencies involved in executing government schemes. The outlay is the amount that is provided for a given scheme in the Budget, while Output refers to the direct and measurable product of scheme activities, often expressed in physical terms or units. Outcomes are the collective results or qualitative improvements brought about in delivering these services.  \nThe Outcome Budget for the year 2025-26 presents (a) the financial outlay, (b) clearly defined outputs and outcomes statement, (c) measurable output and outcome indicators, and (d) specific output and outcome targets. This will significantly enhance transparency, predictability and ease of understanding of the Government’s development agenda.  \nThrough this exercise, the Government aims to nurture an open, accountable, proactive and purposeful style of governance by transitioning from mere outlays to result-oriented outputs and outcomes. This effort will enable Ministries/Departments to keep track of the scheme objectives and work towards the development goals they have set. The document being presented here is an extract out of the Outcome Budget 2025-26 and contains the Output-Outcome Framework for major Central Sector (CS) Schemes and Centrally Sponsored Schemes (CSS) with outlay greater than or equal to Rs.500 crore in FY 2025-26. Hence, this document covers 165 CS/CSS schemes.  \nAcknowledgements  \nThe Output-Outcome Monitoring Framework 2025-26 results from various stakeholders' cooperation, teamwork and collaboration across Ministries/Departments.  \nIt would not have been possible to deliver the exhaustive framework without the relentless help and support of the Division heads in-charge of various CS and CSS schemes and nodal officers of all the Ministries/Departments under the leadership of their Secretaries.  \nThe framework has benefitted extensively from the assistance provided by the subject matter verticals, Smt. Nidhi Chhibber, DG, Shri Surender Mehra, Advisor (A&F), Dr. Radha R Ashrit, DDG, Dr. Devi Prasad Bhukya, Director and the team at the Development Monitoring and Evaluation Office (DMEO) under the leadership of Shri Suman Bery, Vice-Chairman NITI Aayog, and Shri BVR Subrahmanyam, Chief Executive Officer, NITI Aayog.  \nFurthermore, I would like to thank all the officials of the Budget Division in the Department of Economic Affairs for their unflinching support towards creating this framework. In addition, I extend my gratitude to all my team members of the Department of Expenditure with a special mention to the financial advisors ofthe ministries and departments who reposed their belief in this document.  \nLastly, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Hon’ble Finance Minister, Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman and Hon’ble Minister of State (Finance), Shri Pankaj Chaudhary for their guidance in enabling us to take this important ","cbCaisC50r0pn4Tb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisC50r0pn4Tb","pdf",3069448,282,"English","# Preface\n# Acknowledgements\n# Table of Contents\n## Ministry-wise scheme mapping (Sr. No., Ministry, Department, Demand No., Page No.)","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Output-Outcome Framework in Outcome Budget 2025-26?\",\"answer\":\"It brings public schemes under a monitorable output-outcome framework so objectives can be tracked and results can be assessed with measurable outputs and outcomes.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the document define outlay, output, and outcome?\",\"answer\":\"Outlay is the amount provided for a scheme in the Budget; output is the direct measurable product of scheme activities, often in physical units; outcomes are the collective results or qualitative improvements from delivering these services.\"},{\"question\":\"What information does the Outcome Budget 2025-26 provide for each scheme?\",\"answer\":\"It presents the financial outlay, clearly defined outputs and outcomes statements, measurable output and outcome indicators, and specific output and outcome targets.\"}]","Outcome Budget 2025-2026 - Output Outcome Framework 2025-26 | PDF",711]
