cnbc-tv18The annual Union Budget announced by the Finance Minister has now ceased to be an event only followed by the financial and business world of India. Every year, social media explodes with the common man's take on every aspect of the Budget, some based on facts while some based on speculation. CNBC-TV18 and Twitter India have come together this year to break down one of the most awaited policy events of the year, for you.

This year, the two forces combine to give depth to the many discussions that Indian twitterati will initiate regarding the real effects of Budget on every Indian. With young India following every move and every initiative of the Modi government, this year's Budget will really establish whether India made the right decision 2 years back. This is the Now Or Never Budget. If the government does not push for reforms NOW, it will NEVER get back on the path of high growth.

Priyanka Tiku, VP (Marketing) - CNBC-TV18, said, “We at CNBC-TV18 are always setting higher and higher benchmarks for the rest of the news broadcast category. Our partnership with Twitter India is testimony to our daily endeavour to facilitate intelligent financial conversation. As we are the most watched channel on Budget every year, it is only right that we front the debate on Twitter as well.”
