● To ensure that gender commitments are translated in to
budgetary commitments. ● Women lag behind men on many social indicators like health, education, economic opportunities, etc. Hence, they warrant special attention due to their vulnerability and lack of access to resources. ● Budget allocation has the potential to transform these gender inequalities. ● Budget 2001-02 was analysed first time from a gender perspective. ● 2003- Ministries/Departments started having a chapter on Gender issues in their Annual Reports ● Presently budget contains a statement of which- ● Part A reflects Women Specific Schemes, i.e. those which have 100% allocation for women. ● Part B reflects Pro Women Schemes, i.e. those where at least 30% of the allocation is for women

EXTERNAL SECTOR
● BOP- The balance of payments is a statement of all
transactions made between entities in one country and the rest of the world over a defined period of time ● How much money is going in and out of a country. ● Usually, the BOP is calculated every quarter and every calendar year. ● ● Trades conducted by both the private and public sectors are accounted for. Potential transactions between entities in one country and the rest of the world ---
● Export and import of goods and services
● Inward and outward investments ● Remittances of private people ● Transfer of Govt grants ● Private loans ● Govt loans ● Interest Payment ● Dividend payment ● Profit ,foreign aid Why is it important to keep track of these transactions?
Can we leave this sector unregulated ?
Should we allow liberally to do such transactions ?
Can we classify these transactions in broad categories?
Can we transact without foreign exchange?
Is there any international agency related to it ?
BOP can be divided in Current and Capital account Current Account is also classified in following way--
● Trade in goods (Balance of Trade)
● Factor trade in services ● Non factor trade in services ● Private transfer payments ● Official transfer payments ● Transfer payment (or government transfer or simply transfer) is a redistribution of income and wealth (payment) made without goods or services being received in return. ● Examples--welfare, financial aid, social security, and government making subsidies for certain businesses (firms) ● Official transfers ● Comprises transfer payment between governments of the reporting country and the rest of the world. ● Private transfers- ● Comprises transfer payments between private persons and non official organizations of the reporting country and the rest of the world that carry no provisions for repayments. Included are workers' remittances ,gifts etc CAPITAL ACCOUNT--
● Convertibility of currency means when currency of a country can be freely converted into foreign exchange at market determined(demand and supply) rate of exchange ● Compared to current account convertibility, capital account convertibility is a complex issue because of the peculiar feature of capital account transactions. An important one is the high frequency and volume of international capital movements across borders which may produce many macroeconomic effects in host countries like India.
