Union Budget of India on X: build this knot
India's Union Budget is presented in Parliament by the Finance Minister every year, usually on 1 February. On budget day X turns into a running commentary of tax changes, sector announcements, market reaction and explainers. The tags are reused every year, so the same knot works year after year.
This recipe searches the budget tags and phrases. On the day itself, add the year as a hashtag (for example #Budget2027) and use Top in the evening for the clearest explainers. Add economists and business reporters as members for a calmer feed.

Who to add as members
Business reporters, economists who explain policy, tax advisers and the finance desks of news organisations. We don't list anyone by name: pick the people you already read, so the knot reflects your corner of the topic.
Once you add members, the builder makes three more feeds: everything they post, their posts on this topic, and replies sent to them.
Tips for this knot
- Add "income tax" as a keyword if that is all you want to know.
- Use Latest during the speech and Top afterwards.
- Treat screenshots of tax tables carefully. Check them against the official budget documents.
Setting up the X List
- Open Lists from your profile menu and create a list called Union Budget.
- Keep it public if you want others to follow it, or make it private for your own reading.
- Add members from the list editor or from each profile's menu.
- Pin it so it shows up as a tab on Home.
