Tech firms seek push for AI, innovation, digital infrastructure in Budget
Technology firms are expecting the Union Budget 2026-27 to push for development of the AI ecosystem, including innovation, digital infrastructure, across sectors, and provide liquidity in the market for its adoption.
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will present the Budget on Sunday in Parliament.
The Economic Survey tabled in Parliament on January 29 has recognised Artificial Intelligence (AI) as an economic strategy rather than a prestige technology race. It made a strong case for a bottom-up, multiple sector-specific approach grounded in open and interoperable systems to promote collaboration and shared innovation.
