As it looks forward to present its final report for financial years 2021-26, the Advisory Council to the 15th Finance Commission met here on Thursday to take views on its report for the year 2020-21 and the formula for horizontal devolution of Central taxes and other recommendations contained in the report.

The sixth meeting of the Council also noted views on the outlook for nominal GDP growth for the period 2021-22 to 2025-26, tax buoyancy and other macro-economic parameters relevant for the commission for the aforesaid period.

While discussing about the framework for vertical and horizontal devolution of taxes, the methodological innovations made in the report were favourably commented upon by the council.
