Guidelines for Monetisation of Non-Core Assets of CPSEs

April 17, 2019

The Department of Investment and Public Asset Management (DIPAM) has issued the guidelines for monetisation of non-core assets of Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) and immovable enemy properties.

Guidelines for Monetisation of Non-Core Assets

An inter-ministerial group chaired by the secretary of DIPAM will identify the non-core assets of the CPSEs on its own and also on the basis of recommendations of the Niti Aayog.
The final call will be taken by the Finance minister-headed panel.
Once the panel approves the assets for monetisation, it should be completed within 12 months from the date of approval, failing which the finance ministry may restrict budgetary allocations to the CPSEs.
CPSEs can also seek relaxation from the inter-ministerial group of the 12-month deadline for sale of non-core assets.
In case of immovable enemy properties, the guidelines said that the assets would be identified for disposal in consultation with the stakeholders including the respective state governments.

The amount raised through the sale of non-core assets would form part of the disinvestment proceeds. The government has set a target of Rs 90,000 crore to be raised through CPSE disinvestment in the current financial year.
