Budget gives sufficient non-inflationary stimulus to economy, will promote growth: Finance Secretary

04 Feb 2025 Evaluate

Expressing optimism over Union Budget 2025-26, Finance Secretary Tuhin Kanta Pandey said that this Budget has given sufficient non-inflationary stimulus to the economy which will promote incremental growth. He said the Budget has a balanced ‘growth and inflation mix’, while keeping exchange rates, macroeconomic stability in mind and controlling the fiscal consolidation. He said ‘We also have sufficient stimulus in the economy, a non-inflationary stimulus, which will promote savings, investment and growth. It will push incremental growth, work on the demand side and work on the supply side’.

Pandey said the Budget had to balance the competing imperatives. He said ‘We have to have fiscal consolidation on the one hand because we don’t want to be inflationary in our approach. If we try to stimulate (the economy) when we should not, it may turn inflationary and will reverse the very process of inflation control that we have been working at and will be counterproductive.’ He added ‘So, the Budget we have come out with, in terms of various things, balances all these imperatives while we control the fiscal consolidation’.

He noted that the Budget has several demand-side measures and several supply-side measures, including the agriculture sector. He said ‘Food inflation, for example, if we are not able to really address some of those structural supply factors it will keep hurting us year after year and it will keep our interest rates high. It doesn’t help industry, doesn’t help the middle class, because people end up higher equated monthly instalments.’ He added ‘But then if you have inflation, then you cannot have proper growth. You have to have inflation under control. So, therefore, the growth and inflation mix needs to be considered together, keeping our exchange rates and macroeconomic stability in mind. So all these factors we have taken on board while trying to balance.’
