NTPC has jumped on hopes of disinvestment by the government by next year.

The stock opened at Rs 235 and surged 4% to a new 52 week high at Rs 242. The stock is now up 3% at Rs 239. Around 618,857 shares have been traded on the BSE so far.

The next year would see a lot of stock market activity with public issues of government-owned companies coming out every two-three weeks. The government action plan for PSU disinvestment, which is expected to be in place by March, would aim for no more than a three-week gap between two PSU issues.

NTPC, along with NMDC and REC would go to the market before March 31, 2010.
