Across States and Sectors, India Pins Hopes on Union Budget 2026-2027

Описание: As the Union Budget approaches, concerns and expectations are rising across India, cutting across regions and occupations. From traders in Shimla and Kolkata battling falling footfall and online competition, to jewellers in Jaipur, Vijayawada and Kolkata struggling with record-high gold and silver prices, livelihoods are under pressure. Fishermen in Visakhapatnam seek relief from rising fuel costs, while artisans making Kolhapuri chappals in Maharashtra worry about survival amid rising raw material prices and weak exports. Leather exporters in Mumbai’s Dharavi, handloom weavers in Kerala, tobacco farmers in Gujarat and tourism stakeholders in Udaipur are all looking to the Budget for tax relief, policy support and market access. As Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman presents the Union Budget on February 1, millions across India will be watching closely—hoping for relief, reform and reassurance.
