Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is scheduled to unveil the Union Budget 2024 in Parliament today at 11 am. This will be her seventh consecutive budget, breaking Morarji Desai's record of six straight budgets. The emphasis is expected to be on improvements to the income tax structure and enhancing the ease of doing business in India.

The highly anticipated Union Budget 2024, the first under the Modi 3.0 government, will be closely monitored for important pronouncements and economic direction.
