Selling 51 to 100 Per Cent of DISCOs with Management Control

Profit by Pakistan Today reported on 18 September 2026 that a National Assembly committee on privatisation was told the approved structure for the first DISCO sales would divest between 51 and 100 per cent of each company together with management control. The same terms appear in the commission's May invitation for expressions of interest, so the committee briefing confirmed a design rather than changing one. The Press Information Department published the GEPCO list when that window closed on 21 August: eleven expressions of interest, three from Turkish energy companies, one from Saudi Arabia and seven from Pakistani groups, including Engro Energy, a Hub Power and Lucky Cement consortium, and K-Electric.
