Arun Jaitley proposed a Rs 10,000-crore fund to capitalize start-ups and micro, small

and medium enterprises (MSMEs).

Government has tried to manage expectations of various stakeholders through a

number of small steps for the common man, the domestic consumer and the foreign

investor. At first cut this budget is not inflationary, provides some tax relief and supports a

mild pickup in growth this year. It does this by putting more money in people's hands

through raising the exemption limit and concessions on housing loans and small

savings.

For example, we estimate savings to households will be around Rs 11,000 to Rs

34,000 this fiscal, depending on their tax bracket.



On the money-raising front, the budget rightly relies on nontax revenues this year as

the ability to push up tax revenues is limited in a slowdown. And market conditions

are ripe for offloading public sector stakes.

The government has also stressed on divestment. Government proposes to raise Rs

63,000 crore this year equal to what it had raised in the last three years put

together in just the remaining nine months of the current fiscal.
