Selling 51 to 100 Per Cent of DISCOs with Management Control

Profit by Pakistan Today reported on 18 September 2026 that a National Assembly privatisation committee was told the approved structure would divest between 51 and 100 per cent of each Disco along with management control. Alvarez & Marsal had completed due diligence; Privatisation Commission and CCoP approvals of restructuring were in hand. Majority-plus control is the right economic instinct if the goal is operational change. Parliamentary oversight should focus on valuation, reserve prices, and conflict-of-interest firewalls, not on re-litigating whether private participation is allowed in principle.
