For months, both the Prime Minister and the Chancellor have warned about the need for “tough” decisions to be taken at the Budget. The Government, the Chancellor said, has to contend with upward pressures on the public finances, such as a £22bn “black hole” in the public finances, unfunded compensation schemes, and the need to invest in public services. In this context, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rachel Reeves, delivered the first Budget of the new Labour Government.
The Budget, which contained £40bn of tax rises, was the second biggest tax-rising Budget on record. It also represented the largest increase in taxes at a Budget since 1993. The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) confirmed that the tax burden would reach “a historic high of 38 percent of GDP” by 2029/30.

5moPoint N. 4 - Fully agree with you. I have always felt that the budget in India has been given too much of importance. Frankly it's just a proposed action plan and a financial exercise of the Govts - whether at the center or states.
