excise and sales tax, making rules easier for the industry and
other tax payers.

y Pranab Mukherjee's sixth Budget comes in the backdrop of high
inflation, tight liquidity and rising current account deficit.
y Unsustainable subsidies and a sense of policy paralysis as far as
major reforms are concerned have been a drag on the economy.
y Mukherjee has the difficult task of putting the economy back on
track as well as keep the masses or the aam aadmi happy.
y Towards that last bit, Mukherjee has also given a bonanza to the
farming community, announcing loans at an interest rate of four
per cent, three per cent less than the market rate, for farmers whopay their dues in time. He has also proposed raising the credit
target for the farm sector by Rs. 1 lakh crore.
