Budget season in India is a familiar ritual: first you hear the rumours, then you see the consultations, and only then the dates harden into official lines.
What’s officially visible right now is the public consultation process—citizens can submit suggestions for Union Budget 2026–27 until 16 January 2026 on MyGov (a government platform). MyGov.in
What’s being reported: Budget 2026–27 is expected around 01 February 2026, which falls on a Sunday, and reports say the decision on a Sunday presentation would rest with the CCPA. The Economic Times
