Look at what has emerged from the BRICS tax track this year and you find three things recurring across everything that has been built. - Technology: The use of data and digital infrastructure to make tax administration more precise, more accessible and less dependent on the discretionary power of individuals. - Administration: The governance structures, the shared standards, the practical tools that give a cooperation like ours a durable institutional shape. - People: The investment in the men women and the young of our institutions and in the relationships between the individuals who carry them forward. - Smt @nsitharaman at BRICS Tax Heads Meeting in New Delhi

Change-makers are the ones driving impact at the grassroots - whether in maternal nutrition, child nutrition or conservation. It is the determination of individuals to make a difference that brings such change to life. India needs more such changemakers. - Smt @nsitharaman at The Hindu @businessline Changemaker Awards 2026 in New Delhi
