India is considering shelving three planned privatisation sales due to low investor interest, according to two government sources. This has already led to the failure of India's attempt to sell a stake in IDBI Bank and a setback to the government's flagship divestment programme. Initial delays to the plan were due to bureaucratic red tape and political pushback after Prime Minister Narendra Modi failed to secure a full majority in the 2024 elections. The failure of the IDBI bank sale will likely impact India's financial year, with a significant portion of the 800 billion rupees ($8.66 billion) in asset monetisation and divestments.
