Budget 2022-23: Impact Analysis
The Union Budget 2022-23 aims to provide a blueprint for India over the next 25 years. The government is building a future-proof economy and took strides towards digitization and climate change. Ease of doing business is high on government’s priority, with plans of launching ‘Ease of Doing Business 2.0.’
