The government's asset monetisation initiative under the National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP) 2.0 is expected to increase the country's GDP by 40 lakh crore rupees over the next 5 to 10 years. NITI Aayog's report highlights that asset monetisation is expected to play a key role in boosting infrastructure investment and supporting economic growth by unlocking value from existing public assets and reinvesting the proceeds into new infrastructure projects.
According to the report, the Central Government's proceeds from asset monetisation during the period from the 2026 financial year to the 2030 financial year under NMP 2.0 are expected to be approximately 4.6 lakh crore rupees. NITI Aayog also stated that NMP 2.0 aims to achieve 16.72 lakh crore rupees through the monetisation of assets across 12 sectors during the five-year period. This target includes private sector investment of 5.8 lakh crore rupees.
The report emphasised that asset monetisation under NMP 2.0 will help accelerate infrastructure development, increase private sector participation, and strengthen the country's long-term economic growth prospects by enabling higher capital investment and improved utilisation of public assets.
