The privatization of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/bharat-petroleum-corp-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:10222:1" rel="noopener">Bharat Petroleum Corp (BPCL IN)</a> has taken a small step forward with Expressions of Interest being submitted. We think that it will ultimately be privatized. We think current bond spreads are not factoring in any possible downside risks at this point and hence rate the bonds "Underperform".
