The four institutes, ICRIER, IDF, NCAER, and NIPFP joined hands to provide a more reflective view of the Budget, stepping back from the feverish commentary that follows in the days after the Budget speech. For the Union Budget 2008-09, in another first, ICRIER, IDF, NCAER, and NIPFP had joined by the Centre for Policy Research (CPR) to add an explicit political dimension to the assessment of the Budget.
