The salaries and allowances of the Judges of the High Court in India are charged to the Consolidated Fund of the State.

The Consolidated Fund of the State is a fund created under Article 266 of the Indian Constitution. It is maintained by the State Government and all revenues received by the State, as well as all loans raised by the State Government, are credited to this fund. The expenses of the State, including the salaries and allowances of the High Court Judges, are charged to this fund.

The Consolidated Fund of India, on the other hand, is the fund created under Article 266 of the Indian Constitution at the central level. It is maintained by the Central Government, and all revenues received by the Central Government, as well as all loans raised by the Central Government, are credited to this fund. The expenses of the Central Government, including the salaries and allowances of the Judges of the Supreme Court, are charged to this fund.

The Contingency Fund of India and the Contingency Fund of the State are separate funds created to meet unforeseen and urgent expenses. These funds are not used to pay salaries and allowances to the Judges of the High Court or any other regular expenditures.
