The government has monetised assets worth ₹26,000 crore during FY23 against the target of ₹1.6 lakh crore for the current fiscal while proposal pipeline aggregating to ₹1.23 lakh crore is currently at various stages of processing, the NITI Aayog said.

“Core asset monetisation was identified as one of the country’s three pillars for enhanced and sustainable infrastructure financing in the Union Budget 2021-22, the Aayog has said in its Annual report 2022-23.

“Since its launch, NITI Aayog has worked closely with the ministries on investment and transaction structuring, reviewing progress, and deliberating on inter-ministerial and structural issues,” it added.

According to the Aayog, the target set for FY22 (Rs 88,000 crores) was achieved, while the pipeline of proposals aggregating to Rs 1.4 lakh crore is at various stages of processing by the ministries concerned.

Further, an aggregate target of Rs 1,62,422 crores was envisaged for FY23, of which transactions with monetisation value in accruals and or investments of Rs 26,000 crores have been completed while the proposal pipeline aggregating to Rs 1.23 lakh crore is currently at various stages of processing, it said.
