Nirmala Sitharaman Presents Record 9th Budget 2026: Comprehensive Analysis

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is set to present a historic ninth Union Budget for the fiscal year 2026-27 today in the Lok Sabha.

Nirmala Sitharaman’s 9th Union Budget Presentation

As part of her presentation, Sitharaman will include two essential statements required under the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management (FRBM) Act, 2003. These are:

  • The Medium-term Fiscal Policy-cum-Fiscal Policy Strategy Statement
  • The Macro-economic Framework Statement

This marks Sitharaman’s ninth consecutive Union Budget presentation, highlighting her enduring role in shaping India’s fiscal policies. In advance of the Budget, she introduced the Economic Survey of India for 2025-26 in Parliament. This document serves as a crucial precursor, following a long-standing tradition of assessing the economy prior to outlining future fiscal policies.

The Economic Survey: A Detailed Analysis

The Economic Survey acts as the government’s annual economic “report card.” It provides a comprehensive, data-driven assessment of:

  • Macroeconomic trends
  • Sectoral performance
  • Key policy challenges faced over the past year
  • Areas requiring future focus

While the Union Budget details spending plans, taxation, and proposed policy measures, the Economic Survey underpins these decisions. It evaluates past economic performance and highlights emerging trends crucial for informed policy making.
