The first woman to submit a budget in India was Nirmala Sitharaman, who presented the Union Budget for the fiscal year 2019-20 on July 5, 2019. She made history as the first female Finance Minister to do so, following the tradition of budget presentations in the country. Prior to her, Indira Gandhi served as Prime Minister but did not hold the finance portfolio during budget presentations. Sitharaman's budget addressed various economic issues while aiming to boost growth and investment.
