There are so many factors which says this budget has a diplomatic relation to the upcoming election. A cheaper mobile or refrigerator does matter but prices of essential commodities and health services should be cheaper in the country.After the announcement of Union budget, articles like mobile phones, refrigerator, home loan, cement, printer, paper, soap, steel, LED lights, battery driven vehicles and agriculture would be coming cheaper and things like branded clothes, gold, air travel, ac restaunrats serving liquor, hotel services and health care in private hospitals would be more costlier. This is something called a tie between deficit and growth.Whether its individual or country both suffering from the same situation and i.e.inflation and costlier products.other factors are here to discuss..but we can say this budget is totally not supportive in terms of the individual growth...

Nothing special in it. It seems to be a diplomatic budget. Except for increase of exemption bar from 1.6 lakhs to 1.8 lakhs no new decisions as far as salaried people are concerned. Except for allotments to different sectors and some routine pronouncements there is nothing for the propulsion of the Indian Economy as a whole. What do you believe
