1. Introduction
1.1 For the first four decades after Independence, the country was pursuing a path of
development in which the public sector was expected to be the engine of growth. The
decade beginning 1990 also commenced implementation of ambitious growth plan of
Government of India on principles of Liberalization, Privatization and Globalization. By
then, the public sector had overgrown itself and some of its shortcomings started
manifesting in low capacity utilization and low efficiency due to over manning, low
work ethics, over capitalization due to substantial time and cost over runs, inability to
innovate, take quick and timely decisions, large interference in decision making process
etc. Hence, a decision was taken in 1991 to follow the path of Disinvestment.
1.2 The process of disinvestment of Public Sector Undertakings (PSU) was started by the
Government in 1991-92. Different methodologies for disinvestment were adopted from
time to time such as
• “Auction Method” or “Partial Disinvestment” in favour of mutual funds and
financial institutions in the public sector,
Initially disinvestment through Auction Method was made by offering shares to Mutual
funds and Financial Institutions. These PSU’s were permitted to be listed and traded on
stock exchanges enabling retail and other investors to invest in these blue chip PSU’s
through secondary market.
• “Strategic Sale” for privatization(1999-2000 and 2002-2003)
• “Market Sale” (2003-05 onwards) through
o “Initial Public Offer” or “Follow-on Public Offer”
o “Offer for Sale” for divestment of minority shareholding
1.3 In August 1996 that Government established a Disinvestment Commission (DC)
initially for duration of three years to advise it on all aspects relating to public sector
disinvestment.
The main terms of reference were.
• To draw a comprehensive overall long-term disinvestment programme within 5-
10 years for the PSUs referred to it by the Core Group comprising Secretaries of
selected Ministries;
• To determine the extent of disinvestment in each PSU;
• To prioritize the PSUs referred to it by the Core Group in terms of the overall
disinvestment programme;
• To recommend the preferred mode(s) of disinvestment for each of the identified
PSUs;
• To supervise the overall sale process and take decisions on instrument, pricing,
timing etc., as appropriate;
• To select the financial advisors for specified PSUs to facilitate the disinvestment
process;
5. “Disinvestment by Government Companies”: A Process
2
• To monitor the progress of disinvestment process and take necessary measures
and to advise Government on possible capital restructuring of the enterprises by
marginal investments, if required, so as to ensure enhanced realization through
disinvestment.
1.4 Government classified (March 1999) the PSUs into those functioning in strategic and
non-strategic areas for the purpose of disinvestment. All PSUs except those in the three
areas of “arms and ammunition and allied items of defense equipment”, “defense air-craft and
warships”, “atomic energy” (except in the areas related to the generation of nuclear power and
application of radiation and radio-isotopes to agriculture, medicine and non-strategic industries)
and “railway transport” were to be considered non-strategic. In these non-strategic cases
it was decided that the reduction of Government stake to 26 per cent would not be
automatic and the manner and pace of doing so would be worked out on a case by case
basis.
1.5 Government further decided (March 1999) that divesting their stake to less than 51
per cent or to 26 per cent would be taken on considerations as to whether the industrial
sector required the presence of the public sector as a countervailing force to prevent
concentration of power in private hands, and whether the industrial sector required a
proper regulatory mechanism to protect the consumer interests before the PSUs were
privatized. Government also decided to strengthen strategic PSUs, privatize non-
strategic PSUs through gradual disinvestment or strategic sale and devise viable
rehabilitation strategies for the weak units.
1.6 In December 1999 Government established a new Department for Disinvestment
(DOD) to lay down a systematic policy approach to disinvestment and privatization and
to give a fresh impetus to this programme. In the budget speech of 2000-01, Government
stated that it was prepared to reduce its stake in the non-strategic PSUs even below 26
per cent, if necessary and that there would be increasing emphasis on strategic sales. It
further stated that it would set up a Disinvestment Proceeds Fund and the entire
proceeds from disinvestment would be used for meeting the expenditure in the social
sector, restructuring of PSUs and retiring public debt.

2. Different Approaches to Disinvestments
There are primarily three different approaches to disinvestments (from the sellers’ i.e.
Government’s perspective)
2.1 Minority Disinvestment
A minority disinvestment is one such that, at the end of it, the government retains a
majority stake in the company, typically greater than 51%, thus ensuring management
control. Historically, minority stakes have been either auctioned off to institutions
(financial) or offloaded to the public by way of an Offer for Sale.
Examples of minority sales via auctioning to institutions go back into the early and mid
90s. Some of them were Andrew Yule & Co. Ltd., CMC Ltd. etc. Examples of minority
sales via Offer for Sale include recent issues of Power Grid Corp. of India Ltd., Rural
Electrification Corp. Ltd., NTPC Ltd., NHPC Ltd. etc.
2.2 Majority Disinvestment
A majority disinvestment is one in which the government, post disinvestment, retains a
minority stake in the company i.e. it sells off a majority stake.
Historically, majority disinvestments have been typically made to strategic partners.
These partners could be other CPSEs themselves, a few examples being Bongaigaon
Refinery & Petrochemicals Limited (BRPL) to Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Madras
Refinery Limited (MRL) to IOC, and Kochi Refinery Limited (KRL) to Bharat Petroleum
Corporations Limited (BPCL). Alternatively, these can be private entities, like the sale of
Modern Foods to Hindustan Lever, BALCO to Sterlite, and CMC to TCS etc.
Again, like in the case of minority disinvestment, the stake can also be offloaded by way
of an Offer for Sale, separately or in conjunction with a sale to a strategic partner.
2.3 Complete Privatization
Complete privatization is a form of majority disinvestment wherein 100% control of the
company is passed on to a buyer. Examples of this include 18 hotel properties of ITDC
and 3 hotel properties of HCI.
Disinvestment and Privatization are often loosely used interchangeably. There is,
however, a vital difference between the two. Disinvestment may or may not result in
Privatization. When the Government retains 26% of the shares carrying voting powers
while selling the remaining to a strategic buyer, it would have disinvested, but would
not have ‘privatized’, because with 26%, it can still stall vital decisions for which
generally a special resolution (three-fourths majority) is required.

3. Disinvestments-A Historical Perspective
3.1 Period from 1991-92 to 2000-01
The change process in India began in the year 1991-92, with 31 selected PSUs disinvested
for Rs.3,038 crore. In August 1996, the Disinvestment Commission, chaired by G V
Ramakrishna was set up to advice, supervise, monitor and publicize gradual
disinvestment of Indian PSUs. It submitted 13 reports covering recommendations on
privatization of 57 PSUs. However, the Disinvestment Commission ceased to exist in
May 2004.
The Department of Disinvestment was set up as a separate department in December,
1999 and was later renamed as Ministry of Disinvestment from September, 2001. From
May, 2004, the Department of Disinvestment became one of the Departments under the
Ministry of Finance.
Against an aggregate target of Rs 54,300 crore to be raised from PSU disinvestment from
1991-92 to 2000-01, the Government managed to raise just Rs 20,078.62 crore (less than
half). Interestingly, the government was able to meet its annual target in only 3 (out of
10) years. In 1993-94, the proceeds from PSU disinvestment were nil over a target
amount of Rs 3,500 crore.
The reasons for such low proceeds from disinvestment against the actual target set
were:
• Unfavorable market conditions
• Offers made by the government were not attractive for private sector investors
• Lot of opposition on the valuation process
• No clear-cut policy on disinvestment
• Strong opposition from employee and trade unions
• Lack of transparency in the process
• Lack of political will
This was the period when disinvestment happened primarily by way of sale of minority
stakes of the PSUs through domestic or international issue of shares in small tranches.
The value realized through the sale of shares, even in blue chip companies like IOC,
BPCL, HPCL, GAIL & VSNL, however, was low since the control still lay with the
government.
Most of these offers of minority stakes during this period were picked up by the
domestic financial institutions. Unit Trust of India was one such major institution.
8. “Disinvestment by Government Companies”: A Process
5
3.2 Period from 2001-02 to 2003-04
This was the period when maximum number of disinvestments took place. These took
the shape of either strategic sales (involving an effective transfer of control and
management to a private entity) or an offer for sale to the public, with the government
still retaining control of the management. Some of the companies which witnessed a
strategic sale included:
• BHARAT ALUMINIUM CO.LTD.
• CMC LTD.
• HINDUSTAN ZINC LTD.
• HOTEL CORP.OF INDIA LTD. (3 PROPERTIES: CENTAUR HOTEL,JUHU
BEACH, CENTAUR HOTEL AIRPORT,MUMBAI & INDO HOKKE HOTELS
LTD.,RAJGIR)
• HTL LTD.
• IBP CO.LTD.
• INDIA TOURISM DEVELOPMENT CORP.LTD.(18 HOTEL PROPERTIES)
• INDIAN PETROCHEMICALS CORP.LTD.
• JESSOP & CO.LTD.
• LAGAN JUTE MACHINERY CO.LTD.
• MARUTI SUZUKI INDIA LTD.
• MODERN FOOD INDUSTRIES (INDIA) LTD.
• PARADEEP PHOSPHATES LTD.
The valuations realized by this route were found to be substantially higher than those
from minority stake sales. During this period, against an aggregate target of Rs 38,500
crore to be raised from PSU disinvestment, the Government managed to raise Rs
21,163.68 crore.
3.3 Period from 2004-05 to 2008-09
The issue of PSU disinvestment remained a contentious issue through this period. As a
result, the disinvestment agenda stagnated during this period. In the 5 years from 2003-
04 to 2008-09, the total receipts from disinvestments were only Rs. 8515.93 crore.
3.4 2009-10 onwards
A stable government and improved stock market conditions has led to a renewed thrust
on disinvestments. The Government has started the process by selling minority stakes in
listed and unlisted (profit-making) PSUs through public offers. As on 31st December
2010, Rs. 46315.59 crore had been raised in this period.
9. “Disinvestment by Government Companies”: A Process

4. The Process of Disinvestment
4.1 The disinvestment in any Government company is carried by Department of
Disinvestment (DOD). It was converted from an independent Ministry to the
Department of Disinvestment (DOD) under the Ministry of Finance. DOD is responsible
for taking each proposal to the Cabinet Committee on Disinvestment (CCD), the highest
decision making body in the approval channel.
4.2 The next step involves deciding on the methodology to be followed for
disinvestment. From time to time Government has adopted several methodologies as
4.2.a Auction is one of the methods for divesting shares under market sale where the
pricing is optimized through bidding. It is less time consuming and involves low
transaction cost. It is targeted at the institutional investors. In the initial rounds of
disinvestment, Government divested its stake in PSUs thorough this method.
4.2.b Strategic sale implies selling of a substantial block of government holdings to a
single party, which would not only acquire substantial equity holdings of up to 51
per cent but also bring in the necessary technology for making the public sector
enterprise viable and competitive in the global market. Alternatively, Strategic Sale
includes two elements, one is transfer of block of shares to a Strategic Partner and
the second is transfer of management control to the Strategic Partner.
4.2.c Market sale signifies sale of shares to individuals, financial institutions or
private sector business, which can then be traded in the market. It includes the sale
of shares through initial public offer, offer for sale to public, international offering,
private placement and auction
4.2.c (i) Initial Public offering (IPO) is the first issue of equity shares to the
public by an unlisted company.
4.2.c.(ii) Offer for sale is offer of shares by existing shareholder(s) of a company
to the public for subscription, through an offer document.
4.3 The next step involves selection and appointment of several intermediaries that are
involved in the process, the most important being the Book running Lead Manager or
the BRLM. Other intermediaries that are required in an Initial public Offering include
Bankers to the Issue, Registrar to the Issue, Legal Advisers–Domestic and International,
Auditors and Advertising Agency/Public Relation Agency. There are separate
individual eligibility requirements for each of the intermediary involved.
10. “Disinvestment by Government Companies”: A Process

(xiv) Undertake the task of printing and distribution of stationery required for the
“Initial Public Offer”.
(xv) The appointed BRLMs will also make the following payments:
i. Filing fee to SEBI;

Government companies
Particulars Non Government Company Government Company
Objective To raise resources to fund the
objects such as
• project implementation
• working capital
• repayment of loan
• acquisitions etc
The major objective is to raise resources
for the government to fund Fiscal

Origination Origination is Management specific
and a one step process as it involves
Promoter’s decision.
Origination depends on Government
policies which are specific to a Sector
and a Company. It involves complex
situations of identifying a target which
is marketable.
Appointment
of
Intermediaries
Flexible and speedy process as
decision making is swift on account
of direct involvement of Promoters
& management.
Being Government, the process is less
flexible and involves a tendering
approach. The parameters of eligibility
criteria’s have to be determined for
selection of various intermediaries
followed by a technical & financial
evaluation process. It is a time
consuming multi step process.
IPO
Preparedness
IPO preparedness is easy to
establish as focused approach is
followed.
It involves various levels of internal
clearances and coordination amongst
several government departments &
specific committees.
Offer
Parameters
No specific exemptions except in
case of follow on offers by
companies under a Fast Track Issue.
Exemptions are available with respect
to minimum dilution and eligibility for
pre-IPO holding for offer for sale & face
value of shares of PSUs engaged in
infrastructure sector. Banks are exempt
from entry norms.

Document
No specific exemptions. Exemptions available with respect to
disclosures of group company’s
information and litigation involving

Statutory
Clearances /
Approvals
Hurdles in the form of detailed
scrutiny.
Swift clearances. It has been observed
that statutory approvals/ clearances
required for launching an IPO are
within the stipulated time prescribed in
regulations.
Marketing Need a higher degree of marketing
to garner participation.
Government pedigree helps in
marketing the issue if the issue is priced
attractively. IPOs are better marketable
than FPOs. Marketing FPOs is a great
challenge as price is already available.

5. Preparing a PSU for Disinvestment
As far as process of making public offer by companies under Public Sector (PSU’s) and
no Public Sector (non PSU’s) are concerned, there is a level playing field. All the
companies are required to comply with applicable provisions of Companies act 1956,
ICDR regulations, Securities Contract Regulations/Rules 1957 as well as compliance
with listing agreements. SEBI ICDR provides for certain exemptions in applicability of
regulations in respect of PSUs which are summarized as under:
• PSU’s can make initial public offer (IPO) with dilution of at least 10 per cent of
the equity to public in terms of offer document.
• Eligibility for holding period of one year of shares which are offered for sale is
relaxed in case of PSU’s engaged in infrastructure sector.
• The face value of shares of PSU’s engaged in infrastructure sector can be less
than Rs 10 per share irrespective of issue price.
• All the shares held by the promoters before making an IPO are eligible for
minimum promoter contribution in case of PSUs
• Disclosures of financial information of the group companies in the offer
document in respect of PSUs is exempt
• Disclosures of information on outstanding litigation involving promoter/group
companies by PSUs are exempt.
• Banks are exempt from entry norms prescribed
It is imperative that management teams of the concerned PSUs are abreast of securities
laws mainly SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2009; Companies Act, 1956; Securities Contract
regulations Rules, 1957 etc.
Though legal advisors will be appointed for the said purpose, understanding by
respective PSU executives go a long way in handling the same smoothly.
5.1 Eligibility norms
SEBI has stipulated the eligibility norms for companies planning an IPO which are as
follows:
a) Net tangible assets of at least Rs. 3 crore in each of the preceding three full years
b) Distributable profits for at least three out of the immediately preceding five years
c) Net worth of at least Rs. 1 crore in each of the preceding three full years
d) The issue size should not exceed 5 times the pre-issue net worth
e) If there has been a change in the company’s name, at least 50% of the revenue for
preceding one year should be from the new activity denoted by the new name
14. “Disinvestment by Government Companies”: A Process

8. Conclusion
In the vibrant capital market scenario disinvestment by PSUs is of utmost importance as
it fulfills twin objective of raising resources by the PSUs as a part of economic policy and
offering participation in the wealth of the PSUs by investors at large including retail
investors. Though the performance of stocks of PSUs in the secondary market has
mixed results from the point of view of capital appreciation, generally PSU stocks have
been regarded as safe and best investment opportunities backed by strong
fundamentals, rich asset base, strategic business of national interest and good
governance as compared to various issuances of private sector undertakings in last 2
decades. The response to the offers by PSUs from the investors at large has been
encouraging and some of the PSU stocks have performed exceedingly well in the
secondary market creating great value for investors.
The parameters those are applicable to corporate sector such as proper pricing, timing of
the issue, objects for which funds being raised are also applicable to PSUs. The
experience is that the PSUs that have strategically planned their issuances with proper
pricing have been received well by the capital market and their performance in the stock
market has yielded good results.
It is observed that many PSUs including Banks who have tapped Capital Markets with
IPOs have made further public offers (FPOs) to raise the resources and/or to achieve
disinvestment targets. The pricing of FPOs and marketing of them has always been a
difficult task on account of availability of market price for the existing capital and thus
fixing of price for FPO becomes difficult. PSUs have rarely chosen the path of rights
issue to the existing equity shareholders except some of the public sector banks like State
Bank of India.
Further, there are many PSUs which are listed with the public holding of less than 10%
which are required to attain at least 10% pubic shareholding in the period of 3 years as
per the government norms. There are many other opportunities of disinvestment by
PSUs in various sectors and it is imperative to have strategic plan to take up
disinvestment process at an opportune time. It is important for the PSUs to keep
exploring various possibilities of raising further resources or divest the equity through
public at large from time to time.
The preparedness of PSUs to tap the capital market as and when the conditions are
conducive is of utmost importance to achieve desired goals. After the great success of
Coal India IPO with very good market conditions not much IPOs of PSUs could be made
to derive the benefit of the thumping success of Coal India, though some of the FPOs
were completed during this phase. The conscious effort need to be made to develop a
concrete plan to proceed with disinvestment and department shall have a basket of
PSUs ready and available to hit the market at an appropriate time.
