History
The Public Debt Act, 1944 was an act of the Parliament of India which provided a legal framework for the issuance and servicing of government securities in India. It was considered outdated, and the Government Securities Act, 2006 was introduced to replace it.[2] The Act oversees government securities and their management by the Reserve Bank of India.[3] The second clause of Section 2 defines government securities as a securities issued by the central or a state government for the purpose of raising a public loan.[4]
