(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 6. A subsidy of 211.6 million manat ($124.4 million) is planned from the state budget in the next fiscal year to balance the revenues and expenditures of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, Trend reports, citing the Azerbaijani Chamber of Accounts.

This amount is 74.1 million manat ($43.5 million), or 25.9%, lower than the subsidy approved for the current year, but 26.4 million manat ($15.5 million), or 14.3%, higher than the subsidy executed in 2024.

The Chamber of Accounts noted that during the first nine months of 2025, no significant discrepancies were observed between the projected and actual monthly budget balance indicators of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic.
