Listen to this:

If you are a finance student, I am sure you might have faced the situation where you have been asked by your teacher or parents to watch Union budget and tell them the synopsis. Do you know what is budget?

Right?

Even I was asked to do the same in my college days.

On the budget day, I used to genuinely sit before the T.V. but truly speaking after a point of time I couldn’t take anymore.

The reason was that most of the words used in the budget speech were not clear to me.

So, I thought of putting down some important terminologies so that next time when you sit to watch Union Budget, you don’t face the problem which I used to face in my past days.

Key budget terminologies

1. GDP

2. Indirect taxes

These are taxes paid by consumers when they purchase any goods or services which includes sales tax, goods and service tax, VAT, excise and custom duties.

3. Budget deficit

In order to meet this shortfall, the government has to borrow.

4. Budget estimates

6. Contingency fund

7. Finance bill

It is a bill introduced every year in Lok Sabha just after the presentation of the Union Budget to give effect to government’s financial proposal like the imposition of taxes, modification of existing tax structure etc.

13. Plan expenditure

The money utilised from government’s account for the main plan is referred to as plan expenditure.
