MUMBAI - Varun Gupta, CEO, Groww Mutual Fund, said the following on the Union Budget for 2026-27 (Apr-Mar), presented in the Lok Sabha by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Sunday:
The continued glide path on fiscal consolidation, with the deficit projected at 4.3% of GDP, reflects a clear commitment to balancing growth with long-term macro stability. Maintaining fiscal discipline while increasing devolution to states and sustaining capital expenditure is critical for keeping government debt on a declining trajectory. For investors, this predictability in fiscal policy helps anchor inflation expectations, interest rates and overall market confidence. End
