Union Budget 2026-27

India’s Union Budget 2026–27 emphasises growth with discipline, anchored by ₹12.2 lakh crore public capex, strategic manufacturing, and services-led job creation. It prioritises infrastructure, MSMEs, energy security, and innovation while strengthening education-to-employment linkages and social inclusion. Fiscal consolidation remains credible with a 4.3% deficit target, alongside tax simplification under the new Income Tax Act. Technology-driven governance and climate initiatives position the economy for resilient, inclusive, and sustainable long-term growth.
