India is ranked #11 for this dataset

What data is expected?

Records of actual (past) national government spending at a detailed transactional level; at the level of month to month government expenditure on specific items (usually this means individual records of spending amounts under $1m or even under $100k). (Note: Just a database of contracts awarded or similar is not considered sufficient. This data category refers to detailed ongoing data on actual expenditure)

Details

This data is taken from ministry of finance website "http://www.finmin.nic.in/the_ministry/dept_expenditure/cca/cca_exp_stat.asp". It is publicly available. You can also find info on http://cga.nic.in/default.aspx and on http://www.finmin.nic.in/the_ministry/dept_expenditure/cca/cca_exp_stat.asp Data available in pdf not excel. Data is not available in bulk for all things, though for some. To be conservative ive said no. Given the definition of spending I have changed the link to CGA as that is where detailed accounts are available to some degree of disaggregation. The ministy of finance has some but CGA would have more.
