Govt to divest 5% stake in SAIL on Friday

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 03 Desember 2014 | 21.04

The government expects to garner Rs 1,500 crore from the OFS, which will be conducted on December 5.

The government is set to kick off the divestment drive for FY15 with a small issue. CNBC-TV18 learns that the government will divest 5 percent stake in SAIL  this week, as it wants to test the waters before selling large stakes in Coal India  and ONGC .

The government, which has 80 percent stake in SAIL, plans to sell up to 206.5 million shares through an auction on the stock exchanges, according to a regulatory filing on Wednesday.

It has informed the exchanges on the SAIL offer for sale (OFS), and the floor price for the offer will be decided on Thursday. The government expects to garner Rs 1,500 crore from the OFS, which will be conducted on December 5.

The sale, worth USD 286 million at the stock's Wednesday close, would mark the first stake sale under the new government, which won a landslide election in May largely on a promise of economic growth.

India, which has targeted to raise about USD 9.5 billion through share sales by March, is counting on a 5 percent stake sale in Oil and Natural Gas Corp and a 10 percent stake sale in Coal India for the bulk of the proceeds.
