Abstract: For the power and energy sector, the national budget carries special importance in terms of policy issues, and sectoral allocation priority. It also reflects various commitments of the government on different national and international platforms regarding the shift in the fuel mix. The government as per their commitment has shelved coal fuel-based power generation however attention to renewable energy-based power generation is missing. Private investors are discouraged due to the inadequate fiscal incentive structure.
