The president of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), Ms. Jyotsna Suri, said on Saturday that she was looking forward to the presentation of the general budget for fiscal 2015-16 with a lot of hope and expectation, and added that she expected it to be visionary in nature and content.

Speaking to ANI exclusively, Ms. Suri said, "Expectations are always high when it comes to the budget and we must expect everything. I think that it will be a visionary budget."

However, striking a note of caution on the expectation front, she said, We should not hope for changes in a single budget."

"A positive approach has already started," she added.

Asked whether she followed the Bombay Stock Exchange Sensex, she said, "I don't follow the Sensex."

Suri also welcomed the gradual drop in inflation under the NDA regime.

"It is good that inflation is going down.This would be good for the middle class," she told ANI.
