According to Disinvestment Department (DIPAM), SNG & Partners, L&L Partners are in fray for both WAPCOS and TCIL while for WAPCOS, Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas and Crawford Bayley & Co are in the competition.

Taking forward the IPO process, the legal advisors are likely to be appointed for water consultancy PSU WAPCOS and government-owned telecom firm TCIL on January 3 for which SNG & Partners, L&L Partners and Crawford Bayley & Co are in the fray after being shortlisted.

WAPCOS and Telecommunications Consultants India (TCIL) are part of a plan of the Centre for listing where IRCTC, RITES have already been listed. In case of TCIL, the government may sell 25 percent stake. WAPCOS, a Mini Ratna-I category technology-driven consultancy and engineering-procurement-construction organisation, falls under the Ministry of Water Resources.

TCIL has posted Provisional Operating Turnover in September, 2019 for the FY 2019-20 is Rs 700.41 crore against Rs 625.09 crore for FY 2018-19 in the same period a year ago.

Government has a target of Rs 1.05 crore from stake sales of CPSEs and listings but so far no big-ticket disinvestment has taken place. It is expected that BPCL and Air India will happen this fiscal with only 3 months away to end.

In the fiscal Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd. (RVNL) fetched Rs 475 crore in IPO. CPSE-ETF fetched Rs 10,000 crore through FFO-V and Bharat 22 ETF fetched Rs 4,369 crore under FFO 2.
