What Exactly is National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP)?
- Launched in 2021
- Strategy prepared by NITI Aayog
- Objective: Unlock value from brownfield public infrastructure assets
Brownfield Asset: An already operational infrastructure asset with an established revenue stream.
- Monetisation is through:
- PPP: A contractual arrangement where the private sector participates in financing, building, or operating public infrastructure while ownership usually remains with the government.
- Toll-Operate-Transfer (TOT) : A model where a private entity pays an upfront fee to operate and collect tolls from an existing public highway asset for a fixed concession period.Â
- InvITs: A SEBI-regulated trust structure that pools investor funds to invest in revenue-generating infrastructure assets.
- Long-term leases
- Ownership remains with government
Core Idea: Recycle capital from existing assets to fund new infrastructure.
