India's tech entrepreneurs couldn't be happier. After all, they were the stars of the country's union budget for financial year 2021.
The word "startup" found at least 15 mentions in Nirmala Sitharaman's budget speech on Feb. 1, and the finance minister doled out some long-standing wishes of the industry while announcing certain measures that tackle key pain points of the community.
"Budget 2020 and the finance minister's speech has well-articulated India's vision on not just being a leading provider of digital solutions, but one where technology is the bedrock of development and growth," Debjani Ghosh, president of IT industry body NASSCOM said in a statement.
Quite a lot has been going on:

No Budget for a Custom Kitchen? No Problem - The New York Times
People often assume that getting a gorgeous kitchen like the ones they see in design magazines would require draining their bank account. And often, they're right: Building a custom kitchen with upscale materials and finishes can easily run into six figures.
What they might not realize is that there are cost-saving alternatives that can deliver a high-end look for a fraction of the price. One of the most popular, employed by a number of architects and designers, is building a kitchen with Ikea cabinets and then covering those cabinets with custom doors, drawer fronts and panels from companies like Reform , Semihandmade and Kokeena .
Many things are taking place:

Lamont walks back biz tax cuts, sets stage for recreational marijuana | Hartford Business Journal
Gov. Ned Lamont on Wednesday pitched a revised budget for fiscal year 2021 that includes no broad-based tax rate increases, but cancels or slows previously pledged tax cuts that affect Connecticut businesses.
His proposal nixes a scheduled elimination of the corporate income tax surcharge, which would now remain at 10% indefinitely.
That would raise $22.5 million in additional revenue next year for the state, which has imposed a surcharge for 15 of the past 18 years.
In addition, Lamont wants to slow the phase-out of the state's capital base tax, which is levied on a company's net worth or capital holdings, rather than on income.
