    NEW DELHI : The government will launch an additional offering of Bharat-22 Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) on February 14 to raise at least 3,500 crore, officials said Tuesday.

    This ETF sale would be for a single day, in which both institutions and retail investors can participate, they said.

    "The additional offering of Bharat-22 ETF would be on February 14. This is an on-tap issuance. The base issue size has been fixed at 3,500 crore, with an option to retain any additional subscription," one of the officials told PTI.

    The government has so far raised 22,900 crore through the Bharat-22 ETF. While 14,500 crore was raised in November 2017, another 8,400 crore was raised in June 2018.

    The central public sector enterprises (CPSEs) that are part of the ETF include ONGC, IOC, SBI, BPCL, Coal India and Nalco.

    Other constituents include Bharat Electronics, Engineers India, NBCC, NTPC, NHPC, SJVNL, GAIL, PGCIL and NLC India. Only three public sector banks -- SBI, Indian Bank and Bank of Baroda -- figure in the Bharat-22 index.

    Also, the government’s strategic holding in Axis Bank, ITC and L&T, held through Specified Undertaking of Unit Trust of India (SUUTI), has been put in the ETF basket.
