Since, Industry is a State Subject, the Ministry of Heavy Industries does not maintain any centralized data regarding generation of new employment and investment made in heavy industries in the country.
At present, there is no proposal under consideration in the Ministry of Heavy Industries for disinvestment of BHEL. However, the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), in its meeting on 27th October, 2016, inter-alia, accorded its 'in-principle' approval on the following in respect of the Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) under the Ministry of Heavy Industries (MHI):
Expression of Interest (EoI) were invited in respect of B&R and EPIL. However, no bids were received. Disinvestment process of units of CCI could not be started as not found fit for strategic sale.
This information was given by the Minister of State for Heavy Industries, Shri Bhupathiraju Srinivasa Varma in a written reply in the Lok Sabha today.
