Sri Lanka Government Budget 2026
Sri Lanka National Budget 2026
The budget emphasises a clear turnaround from the crisis years, with the government aiming to stabilise the economy and drive growth through digital transformation, investment support and fiscal discipline. Key highlights include raising the revenue-to-GDP ratio to about 15.3 % by 2026 and directing public investment around 4 % of GDP. Major policy measures include broadening the tax base (for example reducing the VAT registration threshold) and phasing out para-tariffs, alongside stronger support for SMEs, digital infrastructure and inclusive programmes. The budget thereby sets out to balance reforming public finances, boosting growth (with a medium-term growth target around 7 %) and promoting a technology-driven economy.
