The presentation of India’s annual Budget by the Finance Minister on February 1, 2025, comes amidst ongoing growth-oriented reforms that have been introduced over the past few years. The Budget is expected to focus on boosting public spending, fiscal consolidation, fostering investment-driven growth, and incentivizing private sector investments. Tax policy is expected to continue to focus on simplifying the tax system, reducing tax disputes and litigation, and enhancing taxpayer services and certainty.
