Event Summary

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is expected to present India's Union Budget for FY2026-27, projecting a total expenditure of Rs 54.1 lakh crore, a 7.9% year-on-year growth. A report by Sunidhi Securities & Finance Limited outlines a fiscal deficit target of 4.16% of GDP for FY27, indicating a calibrated fiscal consolidation path. Despite strong real economic momentum, nominal GDP growth is estimated to be the slowest in nearly six years due to disinflationary forces. The budget aims to maintain macroeconomic stability while supporting growth, with GST reforms contributing to urban demand recovery.
