Union Budget 2026: What to Know

The Union Budget 2026 will be presented on February 1, 2026, by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, marking a rare Sunday Budget and her ninth consecutive budget presentation.

As India navigates a slowing global economy, Budget 2026 is expected to focus on sustaining growth while maintaining fiscal discipline. Key priorities include infrastructure investment, manufacturing and strategic self-reliance, tax stability, and strengthening the rural economy.

With India projected to grow at 7.4%, the Budget is widely seen as a direction-setting document—less about dramatic policy shifts and more about execution, continuity, and long-term capacity building.
