Mitigating climate change while battling the pandemic, Budget 2022 opens avenues for all sectors, especially the green energy sector, to take charge & nurture incentives for all stakeholders
Reinforcing strong capital formation in the economy to be led by digitalization, the budget disclosed a multi-faceted plan to further strengthen an ‘ aatamnirbhar’ India. After the latest commitments in the COP26 summit, this year’s budget proves to be pivotal for the domestic energy sector to take charge and bring India closer to its #NetZero goals.
