What is the Budget? Why is it so important? Why does it affect all of us? And, above all, how does one interpret the budgetary lingo flying around? Union Budget is the annual report of India as a country. It contains the government of India’s revenue and expenditure for the end of a particular fiscal year, which runs from April 1 to March 31.
Union Budget is the Annual Financial Statement of India presented every year on the last working day of February. This time, however, the Union Budget will be presented on February 26, as February 28th is a Sunday. Also, since the stock market is closed on Saturday (Feb 27), the finance ministry decided that the Budget should be presented on a day when the markets are open so as to gauge the reaction of the market players. Thus, Budget will be presented on February 26 this year.
