Union Minister for Finance and Corporate Affairs Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman said that while the Union Budget 2021-22 provides for enhanced capital Government, it also envisages private sector participation in a big way. Smt. Sitharaman addressed top CEOS at an expenditure by the virtual interaction with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) on the Union Budget 2021-22 here today.
The Finance Minister elaborated that though the Government will provide some capital for the proposed Development Finance (DFI), the DFI will also raise capital from the market.
