Description
Summary:The paper explores the pros and cons of privatization in electrical utilities in India. The study of Jharkhand State Electricity Board examines whether a need for privatization exists and determine to what extent the organization is prepared for implementation privatization. The results suggest that there is a need to privatize the organization, as it is weak in three aspects of operations, finance and human resource. The results also suggest that there are many factors internal and external to the organization, which affect the implementation of privatization. Hence a well-planned strategic slow paced privatization is needed.
