The Finance Ministry has already initiated the exercise for Budget 2015-16 by seeking inputs from various ministries and departments.

The ministries have been asked to submit revised estimates of expenditure for 2014-15 and demand for grants for the next financial year beginning April 1, 2015. This would be the second Budget of the Modi government.
