The Federation Council Committee supported the law on budget execution for 2025

The Federation Council Committee on Budget and Financial Markets supported the law on the execution of the federal budget for 2025; senators plan to consider the document on October 14.

The Russian government submitted the bill to the State Duma. It provides for the approval of a report on the execution of the country's budget for last year for revenues in the amount of 37.283 trillion rubles (an increase of 1.5% compared to 2024), for expenses - 42.91 trillion rubles. Thus, the budget was executed with a deficit of 5.626 trillion rubles (2.6% of GDP).

At the same time, the primary structural deficit, adjusted for the balance of budget and interstate loans, amounted to 1.2% of GDP (within the target parameters of 1.3% of GDP), decreasing by 0.3 percentage points compared to 2024.

The non-oil and gas deficit at the end of 2025 amounted to 6.6% of GDP, having decreased by 0.6 percentage points compared to the previous year. This ensured the stability of the budget system, as well as a stable level of public debt, the Cabinet believes.
