The Union budget defines the government's income, which primarily consists of revenue and capital receipts. Revenue receipts include taxes such as direct taxes (personal income tax, corporate tax) and indirect taxes (GST, excise duties, customs duties), while capital receipts include disinvestment proceeds and borrowings.
