Finance Minister to Launch NITI NCAER States Economic Forum Portal

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is set to launch the "NITI NCAER States Economic Forum" portal on 1st April 2025 in New Delhi. Developed collaboratively by NITI Aayog and the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER), the portal will serve as a comprehensive repository of economic, social, and fiscal data spanning over 30 years (1990-91 to 2022-23).

Key Features of the Portal The platform is structured into four main components:

State Reports: Provides macro and fiscal overviews of 28 Indian states, featuring data on demography, economic structure, socio-economic indicators, and state finances. Data Repository: Grants direct access to an extensive database across five verticals – Demography, Economic Structure, Fiscal, Health, and Education. State Fiscal and Economic Dashboard: Offers graphical insights into economic variables over time, along with quick access to raw data and summary tables. Research and Commentary: Features expert analyses, research papers, and policy discussions on state finances and fiscal management at both state and national levels.

A Game-Changer for Policymakers and Researchers Designed for policymakers, researchers, and analysts, the portal will enable: Comparative benchmarking of states’ data against national figures. User-friendly access to structured economic and fiscal insights. Informed policy decisions through historical and real-time data trends.

By consolidating state-level economic data in a single digital platform, the portal is poised to enhance data-driven governance, foster evidence-based policymaking, and encourage informed debates on India’s economic trajectory.
