BUDGET ANALYSIS 2026-27 WITH 86 PYQs

Dear Future Officers,

I have made this document, keeping in mind the questions that UPSC frames.

Instead of making it an isolated affairs, and simply copy pasting the stuff, I have included those details which are important from Prelims 2026 point of

view though, definitely, you can use this document for Mains too.

This document has been divided into overall sections

1. Knowing the Budget
2. The Budget 2026-27 Summary
3. PYQs asked from Budget in the last Years
4. 16th Finance Commission Summary

For PYQs, I have included the PYQs which has been taken from UPSC as well as various other exams conducted by UPSC such

as NDA, CDS, CAPF AC, EPFO, CISF etc. Further, I have included the relavant questions of State PSCs so that this document is an 360 degree document for Budget needs of UPSC PRELIMS (please note – I have excluded the irrelevant PYQs of state PSCs so that the questions chosen remain relevant for UPSC)

Also, I have included few pages from the original budget file to give you feel of how they represent the data. Suitable instructionons have been

included wheresoever required

I hope, you will find this budget document crisp and to the point.

All the best
