The Union Budget for financial year 2012-13 will be unveiled in the lower house of the Parliament on March 16, unlike on the last working day of February due to the ongoing Assembly polls in five states, which will be completed on March 6, 2012. Union Budget is the most important annual ritual of the government in the economic sphere, and every government tries its best to clear overall economic strategy in this document. The Budget is always preceded by an Economic Survey, which outlines the broad direction of the budget and the economic performance of the country, which is scheduled to be presented on March 15 this year.
