He described the Union Budget 2022 as the foundation of future India at its 100th anniversary with a lot of focus on creating infrastructure, a digital economy, and a ‘green economy’. He added that this is a growth-oriented and progressive budget.
ICAI past president Amarjit Chopra congratulated the outgoing Excom team for bagging the best chapter award. He said the budget is “a very progressing budget and has not been biased” despite the upcoming elections.

The AGM discussed several important businesses, such as the adoption of the accounts and the election to the new management committee.
