Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led National Democratic Alliance government's sixth and final budget before the polls due in April-May is supposed to be an interim budget or a Vote on Account.
Finance Minister Piyush Goyal is expected to present on February 1 a populist Budget for 2019-20 as the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government makes a last-ditch attempt to woo voters ahead of the general elections.
The Budget will seek Parliament's nod for spending for four months till a new government is sworn-in and comes a day ahead of dismal job growth in 2017-18. Goyal is standing in for Arun Jaitley who is in the US for health reasons.
