“The Union Budget 2025 has brought significant relief to the middle class by exempting income tax up to ₹ 12 lakh, which will increase disposable income and stimulate economic activity. The focus on developing tourism sites linked to Gautam Buddha’s life is a commendable step towards employment generation and positioning India as a global center of peace and cultural heritage. Prioritizing agriculture, MSMEs, infrastructure, and middle-class welfare addresses key growth areas.

We hope this will be offset by increased consumer spending driven by lower tax rates for the salaried class.”
