Please find below the Interim Union Budget 2024 quote from Mr. Kuldip Maity, MD & CEO, VFS Capital

We commend the Hon’ble Finance Minister for presenting a budget focused on ‘Vikasit Bharat,’ with a prime emphasis on the welfare of the poor, women, youth, and farmers. In today’s interim budget, the minister highlighted the substantial growth in women entrepreneurship over the past decade, allocating 30 crore MUDRA Yojana loans to empower women entrepreneurs. This is expected to catalyse further advancements in women’s entrepreneurship, contributing to the overall development of the Indian economy.

We also applaud the government’s decision to raise the target for the ‘Lakhpati Didi’ scheme from 2 crore to 3 crore women, showcasing a dedication to broadening financial independence for women. This expanded scope will bring more women within the purview of the scheme, positively impacting their economic autonomy.

Furthermore, the government’s commitment to making the eastern region a potent driver of India’s growth is noteworthy. We welcome this move as it holds the promise of unlocking new opportunities for growth and development in the Eastern region, benefiting its residents.

Thank you
