“Given the constraints it's a good budget with better priorities. Sticking to fiscal deficit target of 4.1% set by previous government does send a positive signal to the world on policy continuity. Also good to see importance given to health, affordable home and education, on building infrastructure which have been crippling development and progress such as road, power, ports, etc. Drinking water should also be included on this list. Lower middle class have been bearing the brunt of sustained inflation effect on essential commodities. Tinkering of IT would help in making ends meet. 10,000 cr for start-up promotion is a very good move since we need them to ensure enough employment opportunity to the largest working population of the world. Details awaited eagerly on this front.”
