    Solution

    In a monetisation transaction, the government transfers the revenue rights to private companies for a specific period in return for upfront money, a revenue share, and commitment of investments in the assets.  Recently, the government of India has launched the National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP). The NMP estimates aggregate monetisation potential of Rs 6 lakh crores through core assets of the Central Government, over a four-year period, from FY 2022 to FY 2025.
