      C 1.3 percentage points Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 1.5 percentage points Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Nominal GDP growth in Apr–Jun 2025 was 8.8%, versus the Budget target of 10.1%. The shortfall equals 10.1 – 8.8 = 1.3 percentage points. This weaker nominal growth is linked with lower tax collections in the period: gross tax revenue up 1% while net tax revenue fell 7.5% (Apr–Jul 2025), putting pressure on fiscal targets.
