It is only matter of time, before India’s biggest telecom company becomes public which would aid it in getting the requisite funds and access to international markets for funds and expansion. BSNL has very strong fundamentals aided by 7.5 crore subscribers in India. The IPO would also signal the start of the much awaited merger of MTNL and BSNL to create a bigger telecom giant. So it has got all positives for the market so it is definitely going to happen soon.

The question is whether there is enough appetite among Indian investors to absorb such a mega issue? The proposed IPO of BSNL has been hanging balance for over a year as the management and employees have failed to arrive at a consensus on the contentious issue. BSNL has large passive infrastructure. So is there any real need for such an IPO to come.
