The budget introduces a series of economic reforms, tax measures, private sector incentives, and governance initiatives aimed at accelerating economic growth and restoring business confidence.

To help businesses, investors, and professionals understand the implications of the budget, we at A.P. & Associates have prepared a practical guide covering the major policy, taxation, and regulatory changes announced for the fiscal year.

The guide highlights key provisions relating to income tax reforms, customs and excise measures, incentives for domestic industries, private sector participation, infrastructure development, digital transformation, investment facilitation, and public sector reforms. The budget also introduces tax relief measures, rationalization of customs duties on industrial raw materials, and initiatives to strengthen Nepal’s investment environment.
