Cityfinance.in

A national framework of financial information on cities

Overview

As part of transforming financial sustainability and financial accountability of urban local bodies for reforms in municipal finance and municipal staffing, we developed and now manage a national performance reporting framework and an online portal – Cityfinance.in – for information on municipal finance.

Approach

CityFinance aims to be the single source of truth for financial information on Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) and drive reforms through both competition and peer learning. The platform also hosts the automated grants administration system of the 15th Finance Commission grants for ULBs across India.

Centralised Web Resource

Cityfinance.in serves as a national framework of standardized, timely and credible financial information on cities. It facilitates benchmarking, comparison and peer learning between cities on a range of financial indicators.
MoHUA adopted and launched the official website in May 2020 to serve as a repository for all available data on City governments.
