00:00I will give 10 out of 10 to the budget because in a way it is a very focused budget for employment
00:12generation and still keeping the fiscal consolidation intact as well as ensuring that the focus
00:17on infrastructure continues.
00:18There have been of course demands from various states like Bihar and they have also been
00:24given adequate funding.
00:27But overall job creation has been the framework with fiscal consolidation of having a fiscal
00:34deficit of 4.9% and for the next financial year it is going to be 4.5%.
00:39So broadly speaking without tinkering with tax proposals in a way the Government and
00:46the Honourable Finance Minister has been able to achieve a lot on job creation and employment
00:50generation which has been a bugbear over the last full year including being an election
00:57agenda.
00:58And that is where they have also this time included the private sector in creating training
01:05and internship for our top 500 companies will also be providing 10 million youth or 1 crore
01:13youth new jobs which is a phenomenal achievement in getting the private sector to do it.
01:19But also the other side they have agreed to give some incentives for like a first salary
01:26over three tranches to even other companies and allowed CSR budget to be used for these
01:35things as well as the EPFO, I mean the PF also some portion of that will be provided
01:40by the Government.
01:41So overall this focus of this budget I would say it is job creation.
01:46So what do you have to say about the STT and this short term and long term capital gain?
01:50In a way people had expected much larger this is much smaller changes and that is what has
01:57kind of given some relief to people who were expecting given the criticism of derivatives
02:03that was going on over last several months about over trading and all.
02:07The number of changes are not that high and that has given some comfort to the market.
02:12Mobile phone and related parts with a three fold increase in domestic production and almost
02:19a hundred fold jump in exports of mobile phones over the last six years the Indian mobile
02:25industry has matured.
02:28In the interest of consumers I now propose to reduce the BCD on mobile phone, mobile
02:34PCBA and mobile charger to 15%.
02:41Critical minerals, minerals such as lithium, copper, cobalt and rare earth elements are
02:48critical for sectors like nuclear energy, renewable energy, space, defence, telecommunications
02:56and high tech electronics.
02:58I propose to fully exempt customs duties on 25 critical minerals and reduce BCD on
03:06two of them.
03:09This will provide a major fillip to the processing and refining of such minerals and help secure
03:16their availability for these strategic and important sectors.
03:20Solar energy, energy transition is critical in the fight against climate change to support
03:28energy transition.
03:30I propose to expand the list of exempted capital goods for use in the manufacture of solar
03:36cells and panels in the country.
03:40Further, in view of sufficient domestic manufacturing capacity of solar gas, glass and tinned copper
03:48interconnect, I propose not to extend the exemption of custom duties provided to them.
03:56Main products, India's seafood exports in the last financial year touched an all-time
04:03high of more than 60,000 crores of rupees.
04:07Frozen shrimp accounted for about two-thirds of these exports.
04:12To enhance their competitiveness, I propose to reduce BCD on certain broodstock, polychaete
04:20worms, shrimp and fish feed to 5%.
04:26Don't miss out.
