Consolidated revenues are projected at 3,829.9 billion drams, with expenditures at 4,298.1 billion drams, according to the Cabinet's press service.
Regional budgets for 2027 are projected at 417.6 billion drams in both revenues and expenditures.
The inflation target is set at 3% with a one‑point deviation either way, serving as a benchmark for the Central Bank's monetary policy in 2027.
