The fiscal budget for the year 2025/26 has been presented with a strong emphasis on strategic allocation and fiscal prudence. The budget aims to address past criticisms by focusing on pragmatic, reform-oriented measures grounded in fiscal discipline. It is anticipated that the implementation of this budget will lead to an expansion of economic activities, increased private investment, and employment opportunities, while ensuring timely completion of projects and achieving a target economic growth rate of 6%. Various policy level, practical, and structural reforms are being undertaken to enhance the effectiveness of budget implementation. One notable aspect of the newly announced budget is the extension of tax incentives to promote sectors like information technology, green energy, digital payments, and domestic industries, with particular support for startups. The budget provisions include income tax exemptions for startup businesses and industries involved in manufacturing electric vehicle charging machines. Moreover, the budget introduces policies to support the production, innovation, and development of green hydrogen to attract investors. The government aims to maintain existing taxes on electric vehicles to boost consumption of domestically produced hydroelectricity, reduce environmental pollution, and support the growing EV market. Efficient implementation of the budget is highlighted as crucial, requiring strong coordination among government agencies and a conducive investment climate. Addressing bureaucratic and institutional inefficiencies to ensure successful project management and procurement processes is emphasized. The need for consistent policies, a commitment to reforms, and learning from past experiences are essential for translating the budget's ambitions into tangible outcomes.
