India’s Union Budget 2027 is expected to reinforce the government’s infrastructure-led growth strategy, with capital expenditure projected to rise by around 10 percent, according to the chief financial officer of Larsen & Toubro. The outlook signals policy continuity amid global uncertainty and slowing private investment in some sectors. A steady increase in public spending on roads, railways, energy, and urban infrastructure is seen as critical to sustaining economic momentum.
