What the numbers say
In 2024, Mauritius' revenue, excluding grants (current LCU) rose 9.1% on 2023 (from 157.05 billion to 171.31 billion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was +10.9% and a typical year strayed about 23.2% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.1 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 111.4% in 2016 and the biggest yearly fall was 47.7% in 2015. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 10.12 billion a year. A straight line explains 79% of the movement over 10 observed years.

What this measures
Revenue is an increase in net worth resulting from a transaction. Grants are excluded from this figure. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This series is expressed in local currency units.
Limitations: For most countries central government finance data have been consolidated into one account, but for others only budgetary central government accounts are available. Countries reporting budgetary data are noted in the country metadata. Because budgetary accounts may not include all central government units (such as social security funds), they usually provide an incomplete picture. In federal states the central government accounts provide an incomplete view of total public finance. Data on government revenue and expense are collected by the IMF through questionnaires to member countries and by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
