There weren't any major expectations from the Budget as the government had already made all the major tax proposals for individuals in the interim Budget. 

There were, however, a few smaller announcements directly impacting the common man. In its disinvestment programme done through exchange-traded funds (ETFs), the government is planning to offer ETFs on the lines of equity-linked savings scheme (ELSS) to encourage long-term investment in central public sector enterprises. From the speech, it seems the investor will get tax benefit under Section 80C.
