Budget capex to boost tax, help India become $5-trillion economy: Finance Ministry
Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2019 envisioned making India a USD 5 trillion economy and a global economic powerhouse. The Indian GDP is estimated to be around USD 3 trillion in 2021-22.
The focus on capex in the recently announced Budget for the current fiscal year will boost manufacturing and tax revenue collections, thereby keeping India on track to becoming a USD 5 trillion economy, the finance ministry said on Thursday. Tax revenues in last fiscal year grew by a record 34 per cent to Rs 27.07 lakh crore, which the ministry said is "a remarkable testimony to the rapid recovery" of the economy following successive waves of COVID-19.
"The central government's focus on making India a global economic powerhouse and the host of measures adopted towards this commitment has directly reflected in India's GDP growth in recent years.
"This has translated into increased revenue collection for the exchequer while keeping India well on the track towards achieving a USD 5 trillion economy...," the ministry said in a statement.
