A2015

Answer:

The shift in the Budget presentation date took place in 2017 under the tenure of Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
Before that, the Union Budget was presented towards the end of February, often on February 28. The change in date is aimed at streamlining the process and ensuring a timely presentation of the Budget.
