About This Dataset
The data provides details of funds for the fiscal years 2019-20 to 2022-23. It is useful for financial analysis and for evaluating government support for these public sector undertakings.
Data Quality
The dataset consists of 3 records (including a Grand Total). It is complete without missing values. Notably, the column for FY 2021-22 contains zero values for all entries, which may indicate no specific earmarking or spending occurred in that cycle or the data was not recorded under this head.
Use Cases
Analyzing government investment in public telecom infrastructure, fiscal monitoring of loss-making PSUs, and longitudinal research on telecom policy in India.
Limitations
The dataset is extremely small (3 rows). It does not differentiate between 'Earmarked' and 'Spent' funds, nor does it provide a breakdown of the nature of the expenditure (e.g., CAPEX vs OPEX). Units (e.g., Crores or Lakhs) are not explicitly specified in the column headers.
Methodology
Data likely sourced from a parliamentary question response (Lok Sabha/Rajya Sabha) or an annual departmental report from the Ministry of Communications.
