National Monetisation Pipeline 2.0
National Monetisation Pipeline 2.0 is the Centre's second, and far bigger, plan to raise money from infrastructure it already owns without selling it. Launched by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in February 2026 and drawn up by NITI Aayog, it maps a Rs 16.72 lakh crore pipeline of brownfield assets - roads, railways, power lines, ports, coal and more - to be leased or securitised to private investors between FY2026 and FY2030, with the proceeds recycled into fresh capital spending. At 2.6 times the size of NMP 1.0, it is the financing spine of the government's Viksit Bharat infrastructure push.
