Everyone’s eyes will be on the budget
Everyone’s attention, from common man to farmers, will be on it. The budget itself shows what the government is going to do in the coming year. This is the reason why the reaction of the budget is also seen on the stock market. Let us tell you, this time once again the government can focus on capital expenditure. Apart from this, there will hardly be any new relief in income tax. There is less possibility of the government presenting a popular budget this time. In the current circumstances, the government’s focus is expected to be more on the economy.
