What do you think about budget 2012?

It's all about how the budget is managed.

Farmer is more interested to sell off land, rather than face continued loss.

Industrialists are preferring imported product-marketing, instead of production thanks to endless wait for power, poor roads, varying rules and unending hassles with labor,

Builders are escalating prices, making house non-affordable for honest man,

Middlemen and fifers are ruling markets. Raw material is being exported and finished goods imported. Economy is surviving on IT- or creamy brain drain and the repetitive no brain activities.Developing

Better governance, systems improvement or infrastructure development is no one's business.

Tolling existing roads and taxiing all & sundry activity solely to increase salary and perks for nonperforming sections, planners and their subordinates is the only activity that can be attributed as budget.

 

budget ? govt should more focus on education, nuitrion , GARIBI.....

budget is ok....govt is trying to manage the financial condition of the country and try to bring some reserves for the coming year because the next budget will be a election budget,in which the govt try to damage control its image among the voters.

Nothing special in this budget, except some additions and subtractions.   Its nothing more than a financial statement of a company.   R & D has given a back seat as usual.    No impressive allocations for infrastructure development.  Allocations for Education and related are also not impressive.  Subsidies are eating out the major chunk of budget allocations, though they are failing to reach the target line.  Budget has neither vision, nor direction. Its a routine one.

not the one thought off.... It is overloading the middle and lower income groups...With already sky rocketing prices of most house holds, this will take it upwards to stars ....

This budget was very similar to the last one i.e making fool of people.Just to show that that tax slab 8 - 10 lac has been reduced to 20% and in return made a hike in all indirect taxes and service taxes.Like service tax increased from 10 to 12%.Service tax on railway ticket, service tax on freight rate which will be paid indirectly by people.The govt never thought of increasing the medial allowance which is only 15k per year from last so many years.The subsidy on diesel reduced form 2.4% to 2 % which return a pressure on general public.

Budget is a matter of collecting data on profit and loss,especially on calculating financial deficiency.The main purpose of budgeting is to improve the basic needs of a common man.The present budget not helps the middle class people to improve,because of hike in rail tickets affects every person of a country and present Govt is inducing everybody as a tax paying person.I thing so 40% of our population taking liquors why can't we raise the taxes for these commodities....

It is not a good budget. Taking from lower & middle class and giving to higher class. 2000 Income Tax benefit for 2lac earnings and 22000 for 10lac earnings. A good government do not increases tax but focus on reducing misuse of funds. Good words used by Venkaiah Naidu:

This govt takes one step forward, three steps backward and situation is awkward.
The left hand proposes, right hand opposes and the mind disposes.
