Nirmala Sitharaman, the Finance Minister of India, is set to present her 9th consecutive Union Budget for the fiscal year 2026-27. This budget will be paperless and is expected to focus on customs reforms. Key financial figures to be closely watched include the fiscal deficit, projected at 4.4% of GDP for FY26 and an anticipated 4% for FY27, and capital expenditure, which is budgeted at Rs 11.2 lakh crore for the current fiscal year with a planned 10-15% increase. The budget will also outline India's debt consolidation roadmap, aiming to reduce the general government debt-to-GDP ratio. Other important aspects include gross borrowing, tax revenue projections (including Goods and Services Tax), nominal GDP growth estimates, dividend income from entities like the State Bank of India, and subsidy allocations.
