Updates with details, market reaction and analyst quotes

MUMBAI, Feb 1 (Reuters) - India's federal government will spend a record 11.21 trillion rupees ($129.54 billion) on infrastructure in the upcoming financial year that begins on April 1, but the increase in planned spending disappointed markets.

The spending plan is slightly higher than the revised 10.18 trillion rupees for the current fiscal year, as per budget documents.

Alongside this, the government has set aside 1.5 trillion rupees for 50-year interest-free loans to states for infrastructure development for 2025-26.

WHY IT'S IMPORTANT

India significantly raised spending on infrastructure after the COVID-19 pandemic, as it tried to boost economic growth and create more jobs in the world's most populous country.

However, the government failed to meet its planned capital spending target of 11.11 trillion rupees in the current financial year.

Growth in Asia's third-largest economy is seen slowing to 6.4% in the current fiscal year, from 8.2% in the previous year, prompting calls for measures to kick-start private investment and job creation.

A failure to create enough well-paying jobs in a country of more than 1.4 billion people, where the majority are under the age of 30, has led to curtailed consumption and investment.

GRAPHIC

KEY QUOTES

"The next year's capex target has seen 10% increase, which will be positive for crowding in private investments," said Sonal Badhan, economist at Bank of Baroda.

"We believe that ~10% growth in capex budget from downward my revised FY25 levels while balancing focus on the fiscal consolidation roadmap is a positive," said Kanika Pasricha, economist at Union Bank of India.

"More importantly, demand stimulus via tax cuts is likely to further help support pickup in private capex recovery even as public capex is hitting absorptive capacity in recent years," Pasricha said.

MARKET REACTION

Stocks of capital goods companies such as Larsen & Toubro LART.NS declined 4%, while Siemens SIEM.NS and BEML BEML.NS fell 5.3% and 1.3% respectively.

NEW DELHI, Jan 27 (Reuters) - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is pouring billions into ailing state-run firms after slowing ambitious divestment plans that were intended to reduce the role of the state in business, according to government sources and a document reviewed by Reuters.

Less than a month into 2025, New Delhi has plans to invest about $1.5 billion in financial rescue packages for two state-owned firms after failing to sell them to private companies.

It has also decided to put in "abeyance" privatisation of at least nine state-owned units after opposition from relevant ministries, according to a document that detailed recommendations of a government panel set up to identify privatisation candidates. The document, reviewed by Reuters, did not cite reasons for the decision.

The nine companies include Madras Fertilizers MDFT.NS, Fertilizer Corp of India, MMTC MMTC.NS and NBCC (India) NBCC.NS, the document showed.

Housing and Urban Development Corp HUDC.NS, that was also identified for privatisation, has now been 'exempted' implying it will not be sold, according to the document.

Among the state-owned companies being revived with government funding is helicopter operator Pawan Hans.

The government is planning to infuse around $230 million-$350 million in Pawan Hans to modernise its aging fleet of helicopters after four failed attempts to sell the company, two government sources said.

The amount of infusion is still being finalised as the options being considered for fleet modernisation include both outright acquisition and leasing, one of the sources said.

The sources declined to be identified because of the sensitivity of the issue.

India's finance and civil aviation ministries did not immediately reply to e-mails seeking comment on the privatisation plans or on the Pawan Hans investment.

The fund infusion in Pawan Hans and plans to halt the privatisation of nine firms have not been previously reported.

In 2021, Modi's government announced a major programme to privatise most of India's state-run companies. The plan was so drastic that even in the four sectors that India sees as sensitive, such as telecoms and banking, it wanted to keep only a minimum presence, while exiting from all other sectors.

But now it is planning rescue and revival plans for companies even outside the sensitive sectors.

Last week, the government announced a $1.3 billion plan to revive debt-laden steel producer Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Ltd (RINL).

The government has also allocated 80 billion rupees in 2024/25 for bond repayments of state-run telco MTNL that has seen a series of defaults lately, according to budget documents for the current year.

PRIVATISATION SLOWDOWN

Four years since the privatisation policy was announced, the Modi government has had only three successes, out of which Air India's sale to the Tata Group was the largest. The other two were indirect holdings in steel-maker Neelachal Ispat Nigam Ltd to Tata Steel TISC.NS and Ferro Scrap Nigam to Konoike Transport Co 9025.T.

Other large sales have either been deferred or delayed.

The U-turn in policy was partly driven by the expectation that some large state-owned firms could be overhauled and made more profitable, helping the government earn dividend income, Reuters has reported previously.

Political pressures on Modi have increased after he came back to power in mid-2024 only with the help of regional allies, making it more difficult to overcome opposition to privatisation by employee unions fearing job losses.

The sale of state refiner Bharat Petroleum Corp BPCL.NS was rolled back in 2022 after failing to get suitors. The ongoing privatisation of Shipping Corp of India SCI.NS and BEML BEML.NS has been stuck for years due to complications over transfer of land holdings. The government has also been dragging its feet on the sale of a majority stake in IDBI Bank IDBI.NS.

In previous years, privatisation formed an important part of the government’s plan to reduce its budget gap. But with the federal fiscal deficit seen falling to a more comfortable 4.9% of GDP in the 2024-25 year, the fiscal push for divestment has waned.

New Delhi is expected to miss its internal stake sale target of 180 billion to 200 billion rupees in 2024-25 (April-March) for the sixth straight year. As of January, government has mopped up 86.25 billion rupees via stake sales in 2024/25.
