Key Highlights of the Union Budget 2026-27

As India advances deeper into the Kartavya Kaal, the Union Budget 2026-27 signals a maturing growth strategy one that prioritizes responsibility, resilience, and long-term value creation as the country moves steadily towards Viksit Bharat 2047.

Rather than short-term stimulus, the Budget reflects a deliberate policy choice to strengthen economic fundamentals. In an environment shaped by global uncertainty and geopolitical shifts, it emphasizes fiscal discipline, capacity building, and structural continuity, reinforcing confidence in India's medium to long-term growth trajectory.

The policy direction is clear: sustain momentum through capital formation, reinforce manufacturing and export competitiveness, deepen MSME participation, strengthen agricultural ecosystems, and expand employment opportunities. Complementary reforms across taxation, financial systems, infrastructure financing, urban development, clean energy, and governance aim to simplify compliance, improve policy predictability, and encourage greater private sector participation.

Equally important is the focus on human capital, innovation, and technology adoption as productivity multipliers. Measures to formalise economic activity, enhance credit flow, and strengthen supply chains point to a coordinated approach to building a more efficient, inclusive, and competitive economy.
