The budget is seen as touching almost every section of society, with a special thrust on \u201cNari Shakti\u201d aimed at empowering women while accelerating large-scale infrastructure projects.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement received a positive response from the general public, as several welfare measures and developmental initiatives address the needs of diverse segments. Industry bodies have also welcomed the proposals, particularly those promoting ease of doing business and industrial revival.<\/p>\n<p>FICCI West Bengal State Council Chairman Prashant Bangur, stated that the budget places strong focus on industrial growth, investment promotion, and employment generation. He highlighted the proposed West Bengal Investment Promotion Framework, backed by a \u20b95,000 crore allocation, as a significant move to attract investments in MSMEs, large industries, and emerging sectors.<\/p>\n<p>Calcutta Chamber of Commerce President Anant Saharia described the budget as a long-awaited reset for the state\u2019s manufacturing, industry, and business ecosystem. He noted that the \u20b95,000 crore industrial incentive package and the re-examination of the legacy ULCRA framework address key investor concerns regarding competitive support and productive land use. Saharia pointed out that landmark initiatives such as the greenfield airport near Kalyani and the integrated deep-sea port at Dadanpatrabarh would significantly enhance logistics, export capabilities, supply-chain efficiency, and West Bengal\u2019s position as the gateway to eastern India.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the budget\u2019s emphasis on industrial incentives, infrastructure development, land reforms, renewable energy, and business facilitation represents a decisive shift towards structured industrial revival. This approach is expected to restore investor confidence, boost manufacturing, strengthen MSMEs, and draw large-scale domestic and global capital, potentially positioning West Bengal among India\u2019s leading industrial states.<\/p>\n<p>West Bengal Budget for 2026 -27 presented is in synergy with Union Budget  2026 &#8211; 27   and  push  for implementation  of vision of development of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi for West Bengal.
