14:11 (IST) 1 Feb 2023 Markets give big thumbs up to budget

“Markets’ reaction at the end of the budget speech was a big thumbs up with Equity markets up 1% and rates lower in the fixed-income market. On the frontline, the impossible balance of boosting capital expenditure by 33% but still managing the fiscal prudence FY24 Budget Gap 5.9% of GDP, Retains 6.4% FY23 and Gross borrowing at 15.43 vs exp of 15.77. Concerns of LTCG tweak was also not touched also gave the sugar high for the equity markets. Going ahead, in a world which is slowing materially, India’s Capex frontloading is likely to keep domestic centric Indian economy. The clear take away from this budget is the focus on India (domestic-centric focus). Consumption (on account of higher disposable income) and Capex sectors (capex up by 33%) both will see strong tail wind along with a focus on railways, ports & airports and tourism. Fiscal prudence continues to prove a strong tailwind for the banking sector which is only moving towards its long-term valuation bands,” said Azeem Ahmad, Principal Officer & Head PMS , LIC Mutual Fund.
