In the first lot of big-ticket disinvetsments, the Government is aiming the stake sales of PSUs, including BPCL, SCI and Concor, among others, which have recently been cleared by the Amit Shah-led panel, at the earliest and they could be placed for Cabinet approval by November-end.
Sources said that out of the three, BPCL holds the key as the government with just `12,357 crore sell-off proceeds so far is far away from the ambitious target of `1.05 lakh crore.
Then there is the strategic sale of Air India which is also on the agenda, but the possibility of it reaching the cabinet is not so early.
