Abstract
The paper by Elena Ianchovichina et al (December 29, 2007) presented a framework for subnational fiscal sustainability analysis and applied it to Tamil Nadu. However, the empirical application presented is unclear and so raises doubts on the veracity of their projections of the future. The recent trends in the state's fiscal situation do not corroborate their analysis and conclusions.
