It is best budget in 2012 and some society has in disappointment for this 2012th budget and also railway budget is also available here.
Industry is struggling to see some
positive in it. Allies have nothing to
crib about. The Opposition sounds
stretched to slam it with much
enthusiasm. The biggest criticism of
Pranab Mukherjee’s Budget 2012-13
comes from Dalal Street. India's
benchmark Sensex closed 210 points
lower as corporates said the higher
excise duty and service tax
proposed in the Budget would hurt
growth.
The Nifty too closed lower the finance minister has also
proposed to retrospectively change
the tax law as far as the Vodafone
case is concerned and this will not
go down well with foreign investors,
analysts say.
