Values marked were extracted by an automated pipeline from official TN Finance Department PDFs, with each citation locked to a specific page and the source PDF's SHA-256 hash. Hover any badge for the full citation. Other figures (sector breakdown, top schemes) mix confirmed manual extractions with older official breakouts where the revised documents do not publish a clean replacement — see the data caveats accordion.

A note on framing

Borrowing is fungible — no public dataset directly links a specific debt tranche to a specific scheme. This dashboard instead shows the sector spend vs revenue gap: the gap between what TN spends across sectors and the revenue available, which is closed by borrowing.

Revenue vs Expenditure Gap

The gap between what TN spends and what it earns is closed by borrowing. The red line is the fiscal deficit; the dashed purple line is the resulting debt as a share of state GDP.
