"Important thing is Finance Minister chose to set out steps of achieving the vision of new India of a 5 trillion $ economy," Mr Subramanian said. While there were no additional breaks announced in income taxes for the middle class, the government announced a slew of incentives for those looking to buy affordable homes and electric vehicles. Ms Sitharaman also announced new levies of Rs. 2 per litre on petrol and diesel - a move that instantly drew opposition criticism.
