Interestingly, in many ways the new Union Budget might bring in some positive news in these disturbing times. There are indications of some interesting new aspects that would lead to a positive outcome. FM Arun Jaitley will present the Union Budget on Monday, February 29.

It is the time for the government to honour its commitment and get things done. The near future indicates that things might look up.

There is a stress on “new” opportunities. Progressive changes can lead to positive outcomes, however everyone will not be happy.

For India Inc while alliances and partnerships remain the mainstay of the just concluded past, in this time of consolidation the Union Budget might bring in some challenges to a few sectors. The battle albeit will not be all lost for those who hold their ground. Some better news might be in the offing for a few neglected sectors, with cause to cheer.
