AHMEDABAD: Come Tuesday, February 1, Ahmedabad based tax expert, Mukesh Patel, will be in his office by 10am sharp. Sipping his tea, he will go through the pre-budget commentary and gear up to cover the 47th Union Budget presentation of his career.
After hearing Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman deliver the budget speech, his inning for his day will begin – shuffling between news debate panels, going through printed copies of the budget document and the finance bill word by word for hours, making notes, highlighting important developments and preparing his budget analysis speeches.
