We know that in Budget we have Receipts and Expenditure

 

If Receipts are equal to Expenditure, it is Balanced Budget

 

If Receipts are More than Expenditure, it is Surplus Budget

 

If Receipts are less than expenditure, it is a Deficit Budget

 

Hence, we can say that Budget is of 3 types:

1. Balanced Budget

2. Surplus Budget

3. Deficit Budget
