“The recommendations of the Niti Aayog with regard to both disinvestment and strategic sale came up for consideration. The government has already raised over Rs 8,000 crores through PSU share buybacks and OFS (offer for sale). The PSUs listed for a strategic sale will be decided on a case-by-case basis..45 crores.”Some of these are important units and therefore, since each unit will be considered in its own merit, the timing of that would be decided by the government accordingly,” Mr Jaitley said. The Cabinet also gave its approval for the transfer of selected small parcels of HMT land in Bengaluru and Kochi to different government entities for their use in the larger public interest.
On the timeline for sale, the finance minister said he was not going to allow it to “be under-sold merely because there is a calendar limitation”.The Cabinet also approved the closure of the loss-making HMT tractor division by offering VRS to its employees at the 2007 notional payscales.
