Rajasthan CM Vasundhara Raje presents annual state budget

Jaipur: Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje on Tuesday presented the 2016-17 budget in the Assembly.

CM Raje, who holds the finance portfolio, held pre-budget meetings with stakeholders of various sectors to know their expectations and suggestions for the budget.

The industry stakeholders have asked the government to revitalise investors' confidence and to simplify tax regime.

In one of the pre-consultation meetings with the Chief Minister last month, CII (Confederation of Indian Industry) pressed for steps to enhance ease of doing business.

A simple, transparent and non-adversarial tax regime, bereft of complexities and ambiguities would go a long way to strengthen business sentiment and restore faith of the investor in the state, a CII official said.
