Hindu Editorial Vocab On Union Budget 2024-25<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman\u2019s\u00a0first Budget of the BJP-led NDA government\u2019s third consecutive (following one after another without an interruption<\/strong>) <\/strong>term\u00a0in power is a distinct (clearly noticeable; that certainly exists) <\/strong>attempt to tell India\u2019s voters that it has heard the angst-ridden message from the country\u2019s unemployed youth loud and clear. With the\u00a0BJP having suffered reverses (to change the direction, order, position, result, etc. of something to its opposite<\/strong>) <\/strong>in the general election\u00a0in the face of a concerted Opposition campaign that spotlighted issues agitating young voters such as a palpable lack of jobs, the Minister was keen to redress matters ahead of the slew of State elections later this year. Asserting that the\u00a0poor, women, youth and farmers were the four \u2018castes\u2019\u00a0that this government was focused on serving, Ms. Sitharaman stressed that this year\u2019s Budget laid particular emphasis on \u201cemployment, skilling, MSMEs, and the middle class\u201d. As a part of this effort, a\u00a0package of five schemes and initiatives\u00a0have been proposed with a view to facilitating employment, skilling and other opportunities for 4.1 crore youth over a five-year period with a central outlay of \u20b92 lakh crore. The centrepiece is a scheme to provide a month\u2019s wage as subsidy<\/strong> (money given as part of the cost of something to help or encourage it to happen<\/strong>) to all persons newly entering the workforce in a formal sector job, which would entail the employer registering the employee at the Employees\u2019 Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). The direct benefit transfer of one-month salary, subject to a cap of \u20b915,000, would be made in three instalments to first-time employees. The key caveat is that the employer would have to refund the subsidy if the first-timer\u2019s employment ended within 12 months of hiring. Other schemes are incentive support for job creation in the manufacturing sector, one offering direct support to employers who boost the number of jobs registered with the EPFO, and another, a skilling programme in concert with States, and the private sector that leverages the existing network of ITIs to boost the employability of the youth. The fifth in this quiver of schemes, predictably credited as being under the aegis of the Prime Minister, is an interesting move to facilitate\u00a0internship opportunities to the youth in 500 top companies. The scheme, which appears to mirror a similar\u00a0proposal contained in the Congress manifesto<\/strong> (a written statement of the beliefs, aims, and policies of an organization, especially a political party<\/strong>), entails the interns being paid a monthly allowance of \u20b95,000 and a one-time assistance of \u20b96,000, with the participating corporates expected to bear the training cost for the 12-month period as well as 10% of the internship allowance from CSR funds. Targeted at unemployed persons aged between 21 and 24 who are not engaged in full-time education at the time of applying, the Minister said this scheme would, over a five-year period, potentially (possibly<\/strong>) <\/strong>provide one crore youth with a chance to gain exposure to a real-life business environment and varied professions. All these schemes will, however, need to be weighed against the backdrop of the fact that India needs to, on average, generate 78.5 lakh non-farm jobs annually until 2030, as the Chief Economic Adviser highlighted in his Economic Survey, largely to absorb the workforce exiting agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In yet another acknowledgment of the primacy of the political economy in policy making, Ms. Sitharaman has sought to quell the strident Opposition (strong disagreement<\/strong>) <\/strong>charge of being too cosy with large corporates by making a concerted bid to address some of the challenges faced by the lynchpin MSME sector. Beginning with\u00a0a credit guarantee scheme to help MSMEs\u00a0in the manufacturing sector obtain loans to finance their purchases of machinery and equipment (the set of necessary tools, clothing, etc. for a particular purpose<\/strong>) <\/strong>without collateral <\/strong>or a third-party guarantee, the Budget\u2019s proposals for the key employment-providing sector have been tailored to ease their access not only to debt financing and working capital, but also to business opportunities as potential <\/strong>suppliers to a wider pool of central public sector enterprises and large corporates. MSMEs, however, may wait to see the outcome of yet another Budget assurance by the Minister \u2014 that the government will work to further simplify the GST regime and rationalise the tax structure \u2014 before cheering, given the difficulties they encounter with the indirect tax system. For the middle-class, Ms. Sitharaman\u2019s menu of offerings is focused almost entirely on tax relief for the salaried. In a bid to entice more taxpayers to wholeheartedly embrace the new Income-Tax regime, the\u00a0standard deduction has been raised and the tax slabs with their relevant tax rates revised\u00a0so as to leave a little more money in the hands of the salaried, post taxes. Pensioners are also set to benefit by a marginal (very small in amount or effect<\/strong>) <\/strong>increase of \u20b910,000 in the deduction allowed on family pensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
