New Delhi: With a clear intent to make the PSU sector lean and thin, the Centre is working to complete the disinvestment of 23 PSUs, said Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. While speaking to Hero Enterprise Chairman Sunil Kant Munjal, the minister said that as part of the Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative, the government had announced opening up of all sectors for private participation. “The final call as to which are the sectors which are going to be called ‘strategic’ is not made yet, that has to be announced and I can’t preempt what announcement is likely to come,” she said.

“But in those sectors which we are going to be called strategic, the private will obviously be allowed to come in but the public sectors will be limited to a maximum of four units,” said Sitharaman.
 

According to an official statement released by the Ministry of Finance on December 3, 2019, the Cabinet had given its “in-principle” approval for the following 23 PSUs:


1.    Project & Development India Ltd.
2.    Hindustan Prefab Ltd. (HPL)
3.    Engineering Projects (India) Ltd
4.    Bridge & Roof Co. India Ltd
5.    Hindustan Newsprint Ltd. (Subsidiary)
6.    Scooters India Ltd
7.    Bharat Pumps and Compressors Ltd
8.    Cement Corporation of India Ltd
9.    Hindustan Fluorocarbon Ltd. (Subsidiary)
10.    Central Electronics Ltd
11.    Bharat Earth Movers Ltd (BEML)
12.    Ferro Scrap Nigam Ltd (subsidiary)
13.    Nagarnar Steel Plant of NMDC
14.    Alloy Steel Plant, Durgapur; Salem Steel Plant; Bhadrwati units of SAIL
15.    Pawan Hans Ltd
16.    Air India and its five subsidiaries and one JV
17.    HLL Lifecare
18.    Indian Medicines & Pharmaceutical Corporation Ltd (IMPCL)
19.    Kamarajar Port Limited (Disinvestment has been completed in March. Centre has sold its 74.49 percent stake to Chennai Port Trust for Rs 2,383 crore.)
20.    Indian Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC)
21.    Karnataka Antibiotics and Pharmaceuticals Ltd (Sources have told PSU Watch that KAPL may not be disinvested because the Centre wants to assign it the responsibility of being the sole manufacturer and distributor of Oxytocin in India, if the Supreme Court gives its approval.)
22.    Hindustan Antibiotics Ltd.
23.    Bengal Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals Ltd (BCPL)

I have criticized a lot of their financial policies but this is one of the most sensible steps taken by modi govt . 

He should continue divesting from more of them , socialism is a historical blunder.

Kamarajar port is not privitised , Chennai port trust is owned by govt itself

How much progress did india have when only govt institutions were allowed ?  Close to nothing 

How many of you use products from these companies ? 

How many of you had positive expierience with any govt employee ? 

I just hope they don't create monopolies when selling these

Manmohan singh was clever , he created PSU's but massively reduced govt employees.  Thus removing burden , but not just on paper 

UPA was much more capitalist than people give credit for , they signed so many FTA's and did more divestment than NDA (taking inflation into account). 

UPA1 had stellar economic performance
