Identify the correct sequence of passing a Budget in the Parliament

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A
Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1. The budgetary process in the Indian Parliament follows a specific constitutional and procedural timeline defined by the Union Budget cycle.

According to the standard sequence:

  • Vote on Account: Under Article 116, this is passed first to allow the government to withdraw funds for immediate expenses (usually for two months) while the full budget is being debated.
  • Discussion on Budget: This involves a general discussion followed by a detailed scrutiny of "Demands for Grants" by Departmental Standing Committees.
  • Appropriation Bill: Under Article 114, this is passed to authorize the legal withdrawal of money from the Consolidated Fund of India for the entire financial year.
  • Finance Bill: Finally, the Finance Bill (Article 110) is passed to give effect to the taxation proposals of the government, completing the enactment process.

While the general discussion happens early, the legal finalization of the Finance Bill always marks the conclusion of the process. Option 1 correctly reflects the operational flow of legislative approval.
