NEW DELHI: Encouraged by the success of Hindustan Copper disinvestment, finance minister P Chidambaram on Friday exuded confidence that the government would be able to meet the budget target of raising Rs 30,000 crore from stake sale in public sector undertaking during the current fiscal. "I am happy that issue has been fully subscribed. This is the resumption of the disinvestment process and we will go forward with the disinvestment processes as approved by the CCEA between now and March," Chidambaram told reporters here.

"... I hope that we can collect the targeted Rs 30,000 crore," he added.

The government's sale of 4 per cent stake in Hindustan Copper was over-subscribed on Friday. A total of 3,89,12,793 shares, worth Rs 603.14 crore, were bid for at the close of trading hours, according to the data available from the stock exchanges.
