Duration: 60 minutes (including Q&A)

India's Union Budget 2020–21 will be presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on 1 February 2020. This Budget comes at a time when the economy is looking to bounce back after a slowdown. It is has therefore assumed great significance, as strong policy measures and reforms to propel investments, overall consumption and growth are likely to be announced.

The Indian government has already proactively reduced corporate tax rates to incentivise companies. A rejig of personal tax rates, sector-specific initiatives and dispute resolution measures to curb litigation are some of the areas which could come under greater focus. The government is striving hard to rein in fiscal deficit and inflation while trying to garner adequate resources through taxes to fund its various projects and schemes. Therefore, even if fiscal prudence is exercised in this Budget, it will be important for the government to take into consideration the building expectations of the public. It is certain that the government will continue to push forward its growth manifesto and make announcements on key aspects to boost India’s growth story.
