| Abstract | Separating the government controlling from PSU operation and establishing the
modern enterprise system are the key factors for Indian electricity indushy
restructuring.
The resti·ucturing of electi·icity indushy in India sta1ted in the early 1990s. The
resti·ucturing of giant electi·icity PSUs in India is the requirement of enhancing the
performance and efficiency.
The research is an effott to give a general view about the development of Indian
electi'icity industry and describe, analyze and evaluate the reshucturing process and
output. The sector had moved towards a significantly reduced role of the government
since the last decade. The refo1ms have focused on shuctural changes in the system,
with the establishment of independent regulators, and unbundling of the SEBs.
Drawing on the cases, changing the mindset as about undertaking changes in
ownership, investment and management practices requires the critical political
suppo1t to see fmther progress in the reforms. In order for a resti·uctured sector to
contribute to the reforms, governments and donors will need to factor concerns of
sustainability into reform design early, and back them up with political commitment.
Suggestions and recommendations are given to the policy makers to consider the
further steps of resti·ucturing. Through the choice of investments and suppott for good
governance in the sector with institutional and regulat01y suppott, private investors
can provide their experience and competence towards contributing the development of
the sustainable electi'icity sector. |
