Year-to-date revenues of R$411 billion were up 1.2%, in real terms, over the same period a year ago. Revenues are up mainly on increased collections of taxes over corporate activities. Revenues are expected to improve more in the coming months as fuel tax abatements are removed.

Rising revenues caused the government, on Wednesday, to revise its fiscal outlook for 2023. The government now expects a primary budget deficit of R$107.6 billion, not the originally projected R$228.1 billion.
