The Centre is planning to bring down its stake in MSTC, the companyās Director (Finance) AK Basu said here on Thursday. The Centreās stake in the Miniratna PSU currently stands at over 89 per cent.
The remaining 10-odd per cent is held by various industry associations.
According to Basu, the plan is to opt for an āoffer-for-saleā and not an IPO to bring down the stake to 65 per cent.
āThe governmentās stake post-dilution will stand at 65 per cent,ā he told reporters on the sidelines of the foundation stone-laying ceremony of its corporate building in the satellite township of New Town on the north eastern fringes of the city.
He further maintained that the company was also exploring options to divest stake in its subsidiary Ferro Scrap Nigam.
Having reported a turnover of ā¹51,000 crore last fiscal, it is eyeing 10-20 per cent growth this fiscal. āWe should cross ā¹60,000 crore at least,ā Basu said.
JV with Mahindra

The proposed shredding and dismantling unit ā with a capacity of one lakh tonnes a year ā is expected to help reduce Indiaās dependence on imports for shredded scrap. Nearly, six million tonnes is imported every year at an appropriate cost of $2 billion. The shredding unit is a part of the ā¹120-crore project and a joint venture with Mahindra Intertrade.
MSTC will also focus on the north eastern States as thrust area. It will look to increase its portfolio of auction offerings to include agri produce (from the region) apart from forest products and metal scrap.
