India's once-in-a-century budget runs into trouble as COVID-19 strikes back

India's annual budget in สูตรสล็อตฟรี February was lauded by many and raised hopes it would
drive a sharp economic revival, but there are now fears that its promise may fall flat as
it did not account for a crippling second wave of COVID-19 infections.


The budget aimed to revive Asia's third-largest economy via investing in infrastructure and
health care, while relying on an aggressive privatisation strategy and robust tax collections -
on the back of projected growth of 10.5 per cent - to fund its spending in the fiscal year.


Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said India would not see such a budget in "100 years".
At the time, a massive COVID-19 vaccination drive and a rebound in consumer demand and
investments had put the economy on track to recover from its deepest recorded slump.


The South Asian country is battling the world's second highest coronavirus caseload after
the United States, recording some 300,000 cases and about 4,000 deaths a day.
With many parts of the country under varying degrees of lockdown, most of the growth
projections that the budget was built around are now mired in uncertainty.


The extent of the crisis is even making investors question whether after years of debt
accumulation, India once expected to become an economic superpower, still deserves to
cling on to its 'investment grade' status.


Earlier this week, Moody's said India's severe second wave will slow the near-term economic
recovery and it could weigh on longer-term growth dynamics. It cut its GDP forecast to 9.3 

per cent from 13.7 per cent.
