"There is a huge go-to-market knowledge gap that exists in several PSUs," said Mr Madhu Kannan, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, BSE Ltd.
"An initial step was taken by the BSE by conducting the conclaves of the chief executives of the PSUs across the country, where merchant bankers, BSE representatives and market experts provided insights to senior PSU officials.
"BSE has now launched this Web site to provide a single, updated platform on PSUs with all information relating to disinvestments and public offerings. The Web site also has the first-ever comprehensive database of all past disinvestments." The services of the portal would be free. It would be useful to people such as academicians, researchers and investors, or anyone wanting to find information on disinvestment of PSUs in India, he added.
The Web site has an IPO/FPO guide for PSUs, with a tutorial on the basics of the market.
Details on regulations, disclosure requirements, allocation process, database of all key intermediaries and a list of merchant bankers are also available.
The portal contains market-related information, current and historical, of the BSE PSU Index vis-a-vis the BSE Sensex.
There will be a section on recent Government announcements, court judgments, recent articles and publications on disinvestments.
The company said that PSUs are among the most profitable organisations in the country.
Of the 214 Central PSEs and their subsidiaries, 46 are listed. Forty-four of these are listed on the BSE.
Additionally, 26 public sector banks and their subsidiaries and six State-Level Public Enterprises are also listed.
