Fiscal Policy
 2010-11
 • With recovery taking root, there was a need to review public
   spending, to mobilize resources and geared them towards
   building the productivity of the economy.

 2011-2012
 • Fiscal consolidation targets at Centre and States have shown
   positive effect on macroeconomic management of the economy
 • Structural concerns on inflation management were addressed by
   improving supply response of agriculture to the expanding
   domestic demand and through stronger fiscal consolidation

 2012-2013
 • Fiscal policy response is better part of past 2 years aimed at
   taming domestic inflationary pressure.
 • To maintain a healthy fiscal situation proposal to raise service tax
   rate from 10 per cent to 12 per cent.
Expenditure Policy
2010-11
• The net tax revenue to the Centre as well as the expenditure
  provisions were estimated with reference to the recommendations
  of the Thirteenth Finance Commission.
2011-12
• A Committee already set up by Planning Commission to look into
  the extent classification of public expenditure between plan, non-
  plan, revenue and capital.
2012-13
• Expenditure Policy is optimistic about R&D, Skill Development, and
  an improved FRBM act.
2010-11
• Automobiles: The proposal to extend weighted deduction for a period of 5
  more years will help auto companies reduce their taxes, while
  simultaneously helping them scale up technologies to global standards.
  The proposed reduction in customs duty on most chemicals and plastics
  from 12.5% to 7.5% will help marginally reduce raw materials costs.

• IT: Companies that benefit from tax exemption under the provisions of the
  Income-Tax Act will have to pay an effective minimum alternate tax.
  Employee stock options will be included for calculating the Fringe Benefit
  tax (FBT).

• Infrastructure: Construction- Benefits of Section 80IA may not be available
  to construction companies. Development of roadways, dedicated freight
  corridors and ports to enhance efficiencies and lower costs
• Pharma: Extension of the 150% weighted average deduction on R&D
  expenditure until FY07 to Be extended by another 5 years. Service tax
  exemption on clinical trials of new drugs

• Capital Goods : More Incentives to Rapid Power Expansion
2011-12
•   Automobile: Positive for the Automobile sector ,central excise duty kept
    unchanged. Special incentives were announced for companies manufacturing
    hybrid vehicles in India.
•   IT: It was low key affair for the Software Sector. The Budget did not mention
    extension of fiscal benefits under the STPI Scheme for Export of Software
    Services, which is due to expire in FY2011. Plan allocation for School Education
    increased by 24% this would boost business opportunities for the IT-Education
    companies
•   Infrastructure: It was continued to lay stress on infrastructure development, as the
    allocation for the sector has been increased by 23%
•   Metals & Mining: Export duty on export of iron ore has been raised to ad valorem
    20% on lumps as well as fines. Negative news for iron ore exporters .No imposition
    of mining tax is a positive for mining companies as well as steel companies with
    captive mines.
•   Pharma: The Budget is neutral for the pharmaceutical sector. Allocation to
    Ministry of Health & Family Welfare have been increased by 20%
    only, Disappointment prevailed for the Pharma companies actively involved in R&D
    activities. There were no indications on the extension of the EOU benefit which
    was available only till FY2011.
•   Capital Goods: The Budget 2011-12, though it did not have many significant direct
    measures for the Capital Goods sector, it sent a positive signal with regards to the
    continued impetus being provided to the Infrastructure and Power Sector of the
    country.
• This year’s budget is more focused on reducing
  fiscal deficits. (2012-13)
• Government intends to recovers the demand
  driven growth, private investments, and fighting
  against corruption.
• Government has to make a growth balance
  among Services and Agriculture Industrial Sector.
• Service sector taxes have as it’s the major
  revenue contributor. This might cause a slight
  slowdown in service sector.
• However, all of these assumptions are dependent
  to world economy and oil price. In my opinion
  this year budget is a fiscal remedy budget rather
  than a real growth stimulating budget.
