Finance Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal will place a national budget of over Taka 7.61 lakh crore for the next fiscal year (FY24) at the Jatiya Sangsad on June 1 (Thursday) with a major focus on containing inflation, generating jobs, efforts towards building a ‘Smart Bangladesh’ and addressing the challenges of the fourth industrial revolution (4IR).
The possible budget size of Taka 7,61,785 crore would mainly aim at taming inflation alongside the higher GDP growth trajectory, said a Finance Ministry official.
The official also said that the budget would not be ambitious one nor expansionary.
