The government plans to raise Rs 6 lakh crore ($81 billion) from selling state-owned infrastructure assets over next four years to help bolster the government’s finances and plug its budget deficit, according to people familiar with the matter. Revenue from monetizing roads is pegged at Rs 1.6 lakh crore, while that from railways is seen at Rs 1.5 lakh crore, the people said. Power sector assets may fetch Rs 1 lakh crore, gas pipelines Rs 59,000 crore and telecommunication assets Rs 40,000 crore. Public warehouses, civil aviation and port infrastructure, sports stadiums and mining assets are expected to bring in another almost Rs 1 lakh crore.
“The government does own very valuable assets and this should see investor interest,” said Sonal Varma, economist at Nomura Holdings Inc. in Singapore. “This will be like an asset exchange, where the government sells its infrastructure assets and uses the revenue earned to invest in other infrastructure priorities that it has set.”
