Government to sell stake in SAIL via OFS
The government plans
to sell 5% of the total equity (over
20 crore shares) in the country’s largest steel producer via an offer for sale
(OFS). There is a provision to divest an additional 5% as well. The government
currently has a 75% stake in the company.
The floor price for
the OFS has been set at ₹64 per share, which is a 13.6% discount to Wednesday's
closing price. This has triggered a sharp drop in SAIL’s shares, which are
trading 8.7% lower today.

The government has
approved the purchase of 83 Tejas light combat aircraft from
Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL). The size of the order is pegged at ₹48,000 crore.
This order is the

will give fillip to the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative. Shares of HAL rose 8.0%
today, supported by heavy volumes.
