Union Budget: Growth Support with Fiscal Discipline is Key, Says INVasset's Anirudh Garg

  • Anirudh Garg of INVasset PMS emphasizes that the Union Budget must reassure markets on continued growth support without sacrificing fiscal discipline.
  • Sustained capital expenditure in infrastructure, manufacturing, and energy transition is crucial for market sentiment, enhancing earnings visibility and private investment.
  • The India-EU trade deal remains strategically attractive despite tariff pressures and geopolitical uncertainties, offering diversified market access and reduced dependence on few blocs.
  • Meaningful investment inflows from the India-EU deal are expected over time, not immediately, depending on execution and ease of doing business.
  • Job creation and income growth are essential for sustained demand; interest rate cuts and GST reductions alone are insufficient.

Why It Matters: The Union Budget needs to balance growth support through capex with fiscal discipline for market confidence.
