The union budget 2025–26: Risks, prudence, and uncertainties - Economic & Political Weekly - 60(16), Apr 19, 2025: p.12-13

The Union Budget 2025–26 needs to be seen in the context of rising economic uncertainties, subdued economic growth, increasing indebtedness of the households and a decline in financial savings in the economy. The deficit and expenditure numbers indicate that the primary focus of this year’s budget is fiscal consolidation. This is also a continuation of the past trend of consolidation that started in 2021–22. – Reproduced
