What is Economic Survey?
A day before the introduction of the Union Budget, the Union finance minister presents the Economic Survey to Parliament, which serves as the official report card on the state of the nation's economy.
The publication provides a thorough analysis of the condition of the economy, its prospects, and changes in policy. Sectoral overviews and comments on the required reform actions are included in the Economic Survey. The perspective from the Survey acts as a guide for upcoming policy decisions.
