The growth rate of national fiscal revenue in July decreased to 1.9%

As the low base effect in the early stage recedes, coupled with economic growth pressure, the growth rate of national fiscal revenue gradually slows down and will return to the single digit range.

On August 21st, the Ministry of Finance released the financial revenue and expenditure situation for July 2023. According to data from the Ministry of Finance, the national general public budget revenue in July was 2013.1 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of about 1.9%.

Since the beginning of this year, the fiscal revenue has grown at a low pace in the first quarter, and in the second quarter, it was affected by the large-scale value-added tax retention and refund factors in the same period last year, resulting in a low base, which led to a double-digit high-speed growth in fiscal revenue. However, as the low base effect of last year gradually subsided, the growth rate of fiscal revenue has fallen back to single digits since June. This also shows that the slowdown in economic recovery directly affects the growth of fiscal revenue.

Of course, the monthly data of fiscal revenue has fluctuated greatly since the beginning of this year, and from the cumulative data, it is relatively more comprehensive.
