The government is borrowing less money next year to reduce its debts because more private companies are investing now than before.
This budget announcement wasn’t a big event. The Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, and other government leaders kept their speeches short. Some didn’t speak at all.
The government wants to keep the economy strong. It’s focusing on areas like farming, fishing, housing, and renewable energy. It’s also improving infrastructure like roads and airports. They’re also supporting various schemes, especially those empowering women.
The private sector is being asked to join in, but it’s not clear if they will. Some people think the government should do more to encourage private investment.
The government is giving money for research and development to boost manufacturing. They’re also trying to make logistics cheaper and more efficient.
They’re spending a lot of money on government projects, but not as much as some people expected. However, they’re confident about the economy’s growth because private investment is increasing.
They plan to reduce the budget deficit and aim to meet certain financial targets in the coming years. There might be some tax changes announced later in the year.
They’re promoting solar energy and electric vehicles. They’re also focusing on housing and small businesses.
Some old tax disputes are being settled, which is good news for many people. Investments in defence and railways are increasing slightly.
Overall, the budget has been received positively. There’s hope that more women joining the workforce could boost the economy.
