Budget at a Glance 2024: India's Finance Minister presented the Interim Budget for the next fiscal year. Tax slabs remain unchanged, no commitment to revdis. New housing scheme for the middle class. Capex target raised by 11.1%. Defense budget increased by 18%. Ayushman Bharat healthcare extended to workers. Hospitals to be set up in all districts. Vaccination for cervical cancer.

India's Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman today presented the Interim Budget for the next fiscal year that starts April 1, 2024. At par with widespread expectations that New Delhi will stick to fiscal prudence rather than go for big-bang announcements, New Delhi left all tax slabs unchanged and didn't commit to so-called revdis while the Modi government seeks to come back to power for a third term following the Lok Sabha elections in April-May.
