NITI Aayog submits PSU reform roadmap to Prime Minister

15 Jun 2016 Evaluate

In the PSU reforms measures, NITI Aayog has submitted a roadmap to the Prime Minister's Office for closure and strategic sale of government stake in some public sector units. Under the roadmap, the Aayog has dealt with two sets of issues, one pertaining to decision regarding sick firms which have been making losses, while the second is disinvestment or strategic sale where government wants to reduce its stake.

Reportedly, NITI Aayog has submitted two separate lists of state-run companies, one comprising of sick PSUs which may be closed down and the other a list of firms which should be privatized. It has identified 32 loss-making companies for strategic disinvestment, including central public sector enterprises (CPSEs) such as Bharat Pumps & Compressors, Tyre Corporation of India, Central Inland Water Transport Corporation and Bengal Chemicals & Pharmaceuticals, among others. Of the 32 companies, 10 could see strategic disinvestment right away while for the other 22 the suggestion is to revive while retaining a subsequent option for strategic disinvestment.

Earlier, in his budget speech, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had said that NITI Aayog will identify PSUs for strategic sale. He had said that a new policy for management of government investment in Public Sector Enterprises, including disinvestment and strategic sale, has been approved. We have to leverage the assets of CPSEs for generation of resources for investment in new projects

For the current fiscal year the government has set a disinvestment target of Rs 56,500 crore. Of the total budgeted proceeds, Rs 36,000 crore is estimated to come from minority stake sale in PSUs, and the remaining Rs 20,500 crore from strategic sale in both profit and loss-making companies.
