On Thursday, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman tabled the Economic Survey of India in Parliament for the financial year 2025-26.

The tabling of the Economic Survey ahead of the Budget follows the long-standing tradition of outlining the state of the economy before detailing future fiscal plans.

The Economic Survey of India is regarded as the nation's official annual "report card" on the economy. It provides a comprehensive, data-backed review of the economy's performance over the previous year and offers a broad roadmap for future policy direction. As the government's flagship annual report, it reviews key economic developments over the past 12 months.

Development is good, but I really hope they allocate more funds for education and healthcare in this budget. Quality schools and hospitals are the real foundation for progress. Let's see if the promises match the allocations.

Watching from abroad. India's growth story is impressive. Hope the budget maintains fiscal discipline while investing in green energy and tech. The world is watching.

With respect, I hope the budget addresses the inflation that hits the common man's kitchen. Development is important, but so is controlling the price of dal and petrol. The Economic Survey must guide some relief measures.

Fingers crossed for some tax relief for the middle class! That would be the best news. More money in hand means more spending and growth. Let's see what FM Sitharaman has for us.
