The Faculty of Commerce and Management (FoCM) at United University, in coordination with the dynamic teams of the Marketing Club and Finance Club, successfully organized “Budget Manthan 2026 – A Post-Budget Analysis” on the university campus. The academic event was designed to deepen students’ understanding of budgeting processes, financial planning, and efficient resource management in the context of the Union Budget 2026.
The programme featured an intellectually stimulating debate session, where participants from diverse faculties showcased their analytical abilities by presenting well-researched and structured arguments both in favour of and against the motion. The discussions critically examined key economic themes such as the Union Budget, the role of MSMEs, trends in capital expenditure (CAPEX), and their broader impact on economic growth and sustainability.
What made the session particularly engaging was the interactive exchange between the judges and the students, which encouraged clarity of thought, logical reasoning, and real-time application of theoretical concepts. The deliberations not only sharpened students’ critical thinking skills but also offered multiple perspectives on contemporary financial and economic challenges.
The debate was judged by Dr. Ritu Pandey, whose academic expertise and thoughtful evaluation added rigor to the proceedings. The event was further enriched by the presence of the Chief Guest, CA Shiv Kumar Jaiswal, whose insightful observations and practical understanding of finance provided students with valuable real-world context and professional guidance.
