Budget 2026: The Union Budget 2026 is going to be different and special in many ways. This budget, to be presented on February 1, 2026 (Sunday), could break a nearly 75-year-old tradition that has been followed since independence. According to government sources, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is going to change the format of her speech. This time, she will focus more on Part B of her budget speech instead of Part A.
Until now, the practice has been that Part A of the budget speech would detail the country's economic situation, fiscal deficit, taxes, and major policy announcements, while Part B remained relatively shorter and more limited in scope. However, there is a strong possibility that this format will change in Budget 2026.

Focus on the Future Economy
According to sources, this time, Part B will be given more time and detail. Through this, the government wants to present a more structured and future-oriented policy for the country's economy. It will not only cover the current situation but also clearly outline the direction and priorities for the coming years.

Emphasis on Short-Term and Long-Term Goals
Part B will emphasize short-term and long-term goals. It may explain how the government will balance immediate economic growth, fiscal discipline, and social welfare, while also advancing necessary structural reforms in the long run. This section will reflect India's economic thinking and continuity as it enters the second quarter of the 21st century.

Roadmap for Future Growth Prospects
In addition, this part of the budget speech will also highlight India's strengths in the global context. It may present a roadmap of India's current economic capabilities, the strengths of various sectors, and future growth prospects. The government's focus will be on establishing India as a competitive and robust economy so that it can further strengthen its role in global supply chains and international markets. Global experts and policy analysts are also keeping a close watch.

Government sources say that due to the increasing importance of Part B, this budget will be closely watched not only by the country but also by global experts and policy analysts. It is believed that this part of the budget speech will clearly indicate the government's medium and long-term economic priorities and the direction of reforms.
