‘The forthcoming Union Budget 2026 calls for a transformative opportunity to substantially boost India’s infrastructure and mining sectors. We strongly anticipate strong initiatives that indicate significant capital investment into large-scale projects, incentivise the adoption of innovative green technology, and rationalise duties on critical materials to reduce cost constraints. Besides this, streamlined regulatory frameworks, like single-window approvals, are critical for promoting ease of doing business and unlocking private investment. Such forward-thinking changes would spur innovation, boost global competitiveness, and establish India as a leader in long-term industrial growth. A visionary budget would not only stimulate economic growth, but will also strengthen the country’s commitment to resilience, self-reliance, and environmental care.’
