The budget document provides details on key fiscal targets and highlights from the Indian budget. The fiscal deficit target for the current year is 4.6% of GDP, which is better than the previous target but may be aggressive given other factors. Revenue deficit is a continuing concern. Some key points include reduced corporate tax surcharges, increased exemption limits for individual taxpayers, and changes to indirect taxes that will make some consumer goods cheaper and some services more expensive. Infrastructure spending saw a large increase but financing remains a challenge. Allocations to social sectors also increased substantially.

India Economic Survey 2017 by Edelman IndiaAklanta Kalita
The Union Finance Minister Shri Arun Jaitley tabled the Economic Survey 2016-17 today, the first day of the Budget Session of the Parliament. The Economic Survey says that the adverse impact of demonetisation on GDP growth will be transitional and the economy will recover with remonetisation. The Survey states that once the cash supply is replenished, which is likely to be achieved by end of March 2017, the economy would revert to normal. The GDP growth in 2017-18, as per the survey, is projected to be in the range of 6¾-7½ percent.
The Survey suggests a few measures to maximise long-term benefits and minimise short-term costs. One, fast remonetisation and early elimination of withdrawal limits. This would reduce GDP growth deceleration and cash hoarding. Two, continued impetus to digitalisation while ensuring that this transition is gradual and inclusive, and appropriately balances the costs and benefits of cash versus digitalisation. Three, following up demonetisation by bringing land and real estate into the GST. Four, reducing tax rates and stamp duties.
Edelman India Analysis
Standing in for Mr Arun Jaitley, Finance Minister (FM), Piyush Goyal presented the Union Budget of India earlier today. Highlighting achievements of various Government schemes, Mr Goyal stated that the Government led by Prime Minister Modi has been the most decisive and transformational in executing structural reforms.
Focused on rural and inclusive development over the next 5-10 years, the Budget included significant announcements ahead of the General Elections while also outlining ten dimensions of the Government’s Vision for India’s development by 2030. The launch of, “Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN),” which aims to supplement rural income, captured the limelight of this year’s budget. The middle class has also benefited with higher gratuity, broadening of the tax-exempt bracket and waivers on income tax on notional rent. A mega pension scheme for workers in the unorganised sector was also announced along with health coverage under the ‘Ayushman Bharat’ scheme.
The Government has budgeted for overall expenditure of INR 27.8 trillion in 2019-20, an increase of 13% over the previous year’s estimates, while targeting a fiscal deficit of 3.4% in 2019-20 and 3% in 2020-21.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitley presented the Union Budget for 2016-17 and reaffirmed that the economy is on the right track. The budget is aimed at strengthening India's firewalls by ensuring macroeconomic stability and prudent fiscal management; driving growth through domestic demand; and economic reforms and policy initiatives to change lives for the better. With measured focus on social sector reforms and recapitalising India's banking system, this Budget has an overarching focus on improving agriculture, and scaling infrastructure, all of which bode well for the country. The government is now planning to rationalise and channel subsidies to the poor by increasing the burden on the rich, and by increasing spending on public welfare through its own kitty.
Mr. Jaitley said the Union Budget is aimed at improving rural infrastructure and increasing rural income, as the biggest challenge to the economy is agrarian distress. Applauding the budget presented by the Finance Minister, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the Budget is pro-village, pro-poor and pro–farmers, and is focused on bringing about qualitative changes in the country through a slew of time-bound programmes.
The attached note captures key highlights and summarises major announcements in the Budget.

The Economic Survey says that the adverse impact of demonetisation on GDP growth will be transitional and the economy will recover with remonetisation.

Three, following up demonetisation by bringing land and real estate into the GST. Four, reducing tax rates and stamp duties.
This is an analysis and brief overview document on the Survey
The Union Budget for 2017-18 pledged relief for rural India, middle class taxpayers and small and medium-sized companies in the Union Budget 2017-18, saying the government would spend thousands of crores to double farmers' incomes, upgrade infrastructure and provide affordable housing. While unveiling the budget the Hon’ble Finance Minister emphasised that the budget is built on three pillars “Transform, Energise and Clean India”, that is, TEC India. This agenda of TEC India seeks to transform the quality of governance and quality of life of the citizens of India, energise various sections of society, especially the youth and the vulnerable sections of the society and enable them to unleash their true potential. The emphasis of TEC India is also to clean the country from the evils of corruption, black money, and non-transparent political funding. The main focus of the Budget has been to boost government expenditure in order to increase growth, and to muster employment generation.
The Finance Minister said the Indian economy was doing well despite global trends of slowing growth in other emerging economies. He also delivered a big relief to foreign portfolio investors by exempting them from indirect transfer provisions. The centre’s budget size has been pegged at Rs. 21.47 lakh crore, with an increase of 25.47 per cent in capital expenditure. As regards fiscal consolidation, the FM has targeted fiscal deficit of 3.2 per cent for 2017-18 as against earlier target of 3 per cent. For agriculture and rural sector, Mr Jaitley has increased the allocation by 24 per cent to Rs. 1.87 lakh crore for 2017-18. In the case of infrastructure, the planned public investment stood at massive Rs. 3.96 lakh crore.
We have developed an analysis of the budget, which includes opinion pieces from eminent economists and experts.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

74. Boost to low cost housing through favourable financing.Not much for the aam aadmi; unless if the delivery mechanism starts functioning. May induce some consumption, with marginally higher budgetary allocations.
75. Proposed investment Figures in Rs crore Allocations of Rs 300 crore respectively too small to make any difference!!!
76.

92. A revised Centrally Sponsored Scheme “Vocationalisation of Secondary Education” to improve the employability of youth.
93. Special emphasis on areas such as Skill Development and the National Knowledge Network that is critical for India to be a global leader in the 21st century.
94. National Knowledge Network initiative shows the government’s preference to reach quality education to the students irrespective of their geographical location.
95. With the increase in the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan budget by 40% to Rs 21,000 crore, there should be a much larger role for the private sector in K-12 and Teacher Training space built around the PPP (public private partnership) model.
