Budget 2024: Govt to continue Capex push | Allocations for infra, rural to increase | What is Capex?

Capital expenditure is the money spent by the government on the development of machinery, equipment, building infrastructure, healthcare, etc. But where does this money come from and can the current govt choose to be populist in an election year? Capex allocations have increased year-on-year touching the Rs.10 lakh crore mark in FY24. Can the govt continue to increase its allocation and will they choose to back-load capex? Stacy Pereira sits down with Santosh Nair to understand what exactly we mean by Capex push.
