OVERALL budget is awesome as it tries to cover all the sector 

as households benefits are at par for the salaried person and even for the other individuals. 

and the investors are also happy as the stamp duty in securities are get centralised as  earlier it is charged as state wise stamp duty ... and there will be reduction in stamp duty (expected) unified tax for investors w.r.t. STAMP DUTY 

they also cover farmers via giving 6000 per month 

also cover the unorganised sector employees, as to provide pension 3000 per year after age of 60 years 

and benefits to person having two houses 

and much more 

so the overall budget is awesome !!
