1.1Overview
PTCL is the largest telecommunication company in Pakistan. This company provides telephony services to the nation and still holds the status of backbone for country's telecommunication infrastructure. The company consists of around 2000 telephone exchanges across country providing largest fixed line network. GSM, CDMA and Internet are other resources of PTCL, making it a gigantic organization. The Privatization Commission, Government of Pakistan had planned to privatize 51 % shares of entity through bidding. In response, the government faced stirred opposition from the employees of PTCL lead of employees parties and strike of about 20 days lead the knees of government down, which re-scheduled the mechanism and presented plan of privatizing 26 % of shares along with the managerial powers in 2006 for some about US$ 2.6 billion to a Dubai based Telecom Company Eitsalat. PTCL was one of the Pakistan profits earning Telecom Company. After getting Privatized PTCL is losing its base as its subscription declined from 5.12 million to 4.40 million in 2008. While the revenue declined from Rupees 69,085 million in 2006 to RS. 61,085 million in 2008. Similarly the Profit after tax in 2006 was some about Rs 20,777 million while in 2008 there is a loss of Rs. 2,825 million. The financial statement shows a continuous growth till 2006 while after privatization the company is facing severe financial shortcomings (PTCL. limited).

significant privatization program in Chile. However, it was in the 1980s under the leaderships of Margaret Thatcher in the UK and Ronald Reagan in the USA, that privatization gained worldwide momentum.

2-Increased efficiency:
Private companies and firms have a greater incentive to produce more goods and services for the sake of reaching a customer base and hence increasing profits. A state-owned firm would not be as productive due to the lack of financing allocated by the entire government's budget that must consider other areas of the economy.
3-Specialization:
A private business has the ability to focus all relevant human and financial resources
-5-
Impacts of Privatization on PTCL onto specific functions. A state-owned firm does not have the necessary resources to specialize its goods and services as a result of the general products provided to the greatest number of people in the population.
4-Improvements:
Conversely, the government may put off improvements due to political sensitivity and special interests even in cases of companies that are run well and better serve their customers' needs.
5-Accountability:
Managers of privately owned companies are accountable to their owners/shareholders and to the consumer, and can only exist and thrive where needs are met. Managers of publicly owned companies are required to be more accountable to the broader community and to political "stakeholders". This can reduce their ability to directly and specifically serve the needs of their customers, and can bias investment decisions away from otherwise profitable areas.
6-Civil-liberty concerns:
A company controlled by the state may have access to information or assets which may be used against dissidents or any individuals who disagree with their policies.
7-Goals:
A political government tends to run an industry or company for political goals rather than economic ones.
8-Capital:
Privately held companies can sometimes more easily raise investment capital in the financial markets when such local markets exist and are suitably liquid. While interest rates for private companies are often higher than for government debt, this can serve as a useful constraint to promote efficient investments by private companies, instead of cross-subsidizing them with the overall credit-risk of the country. Investment decisions are then governed by market interest rates. Stateowned industries have to compete with demands from other government
departments and special interests. In either case, for smaller markets, political risk may add substantially to the cost of capital.
9-Natural monopolies:
The existence of natural monopolies does not mean that these sectors must be state

Impacts of Privatization on PTCL owned. Governments can enact or are armed with anti-trust legislation and bodies to deal with anti-competitive behavior of all companies public or private.
10-Concentration of wealth:
Ownership of and profits from successful enterprises tend to be dispersed and diversified -particularly in voucher privatization. The availability of more investment vehicles stimulates capital markets and promotes liquidity and job creation.
11-Profits:
Corporations exist to generate profits for their shareholders. Private companies make a profit by enticing consumers to buy their products in preference to their competitors' (or by increasing primary demand for their products, or by reducing costs). Private corporations typically profit more if they serve the needs of their clients well. Corporations of different sizes may target different market niches in order to focus on marginal groups and satisfy their demand. A company with good corporate governance will therefore be incentivized to meet the needs of its customers efficiently.
12-Job gains:
As the economy becomes more efficient, more profits are obtained and no government subsidies and less taxes are needed, there will be more private money available for investments and consumption and more profitable and better-paid jobs will be created than in the case of a more regulated economy.
2-Improvements:
The government is motivated to performance improvements as well run businesses contribute to the State's revenues.
3-Accountability:
The public does not have any control or oversight of private companies.
-7-
4-Civil-liberty concerns:
A democratically elected government is accountable to the people through a parliament, and can intervene when civil liberties are threatened.
5-Goals:
The government may seek to use state companies as instruments to further social goals for the benefit of the nation as a whole.
6-Capital:
Governments can raise money in the financial markets most cheaply to re-lend to state-owned enterprises.
9-Natural monopolies:
Privatizations will not result in true competition if a natural monopoly exists.
10-Concentration of wealth:
Profits from successful enterprises end up in private, often foreign, hands instead of being available for the common good.
11-Political influence:
Governments may more easily exert pressure on state-owned firms to help implementing government policy.
12-Downsizing:
Private companies often face a conflict between profitability and service levels, and could over-react to short-term events. A state-owned company might have a longerterm view, and thus be less likely to cut back on maintenance or staff costs, training etc, to stem short term losses. Many private companies have downsized while making record profits.
-8-
13-Profit:
Private companies do not have any goal other than to maximize profits. A private company will serve the needs of those who are most willing (and able) to pay, as opposed to the needs of the majority, and are thus anti-democratic. The more necessary a good is, the lower the price elasticity of demand, as people will attempt to buy it no matter the price. In the case of price elasticity of demand is zero; demand part of supply and demand theories does not work.
15-Job Loss:
Due to the additional financial burden placed on privatized companies to succeed without any government help, unlike the public companies, jobs could be lost to keep more money in the company.
2.7.2 Non-Profit:
The enterprise could be managed by a private non-profit organization.
2.7.3 Municipalization:
Transferring control to municipal government.

In addition, the British government has involved the private sector more in the workings of the National Health Service principally through outsourcing the construction and operation of new hospitals to private companies. There are also moves to refer patients to private surgeries to ease the load on existing NHS human resources, and covering the cost of this.
2.8 Nationalization
Nationalization is the act of taking an industry or assets into the public ownership of a national government or state. Nationalization usually refers to private assets, but may also mean assets owned by lower levels of government, such as municipalities, being state operated or owned by the state. The opposite of nationalization is usually privatization or de-nationalization, but may also be municipalization. A renationalization occurs when state-owned assets are privatized and later nationalized again, often when a different political party or faction is in power. A renationalization process may also be called reverse privatization. The motives for nationalization are political as well as economic. It is a central theme of certain brands of 'state socialist' policy that the means of production, distribution and exchange, should be owned by the state on behalf of the people to allow for rational allocation and operation, and rational planning or control of the economy. Many socialists believe that public ownership enables people to exercise full democratic control over the means whereby they earn their living and provides an effective means of redistributing wealth and income more equitably. Nationalized industries, charged with operating in the public interest, may be under

Impacts of Privatization on PTCL strong political and social pressures to give much more attention to externalities. They may be obliged to operate some loss making activities where social benefits are clearly greater than social costs - for example, rural, postal and transport services. As an instance, the United States Postal Service is guaranteed its nationalized status by the Constitution. The government has recognized these social obligations and, in some cases, provides subsidies for such non-commercial operations. Since the nationalized industries are state owned, the government is responsible for meeting any debts incurred by these industries. The nationalized industries do not normally borrow from the domestic market other than for short-term borrowing. However, if profitable, the profit is often used as a means to finance other state services such as social programs and government research which can help lower the tax burden.

The Notes were convertible to fully paid "A" class ordinary shares of PTCL and these were 3.3 % of the total share capital issued. In august 1997 foreign receivable has been securitized successfully obtaining 250 million US dollar to GOP. In 1995 a new financial advisor was hired by Privatization commission for the implementation of strategic sale (26% management shares) but the new governments suspended the services of the financial advisor, and in 1998 hire the M/S Goldman Sachs International to provide advisory services on PTCL privatization. The Financial Advisor has start working and established a data room at the head quarter of PTCL where all possible information that is related to PTCL were available to facilitate the team.

Training and Development The role of training and development in a service involved organization is many times more in comparison with what it has in a manufacturing involved organization. This role becomes more significant in a situation where the need to transform organizational culture is identified as the most glaring problem and the most difficult impediment on the way to organizational growth. PTCL employees are a great asset not only for the company but also for the country. Their marvelous potential is yet to

Their skills need to be developed, their expertise need to be updated for which training and development department is at their disposal to cater to their training needs. At PTCL, training and development team would never miss an opportunity to contribute towards the betterment of the company. Training and Developments is playing an essential role in changing PTCL from a government sector organization to corporate sector company. PTCL consider every employee of the company as our customer and firmly believe that meeting their expectation would help us achieve customer satisfaction. We look forward to your input for making our endeavors more effective. The Training and Development has a clear road map of activities and is committed to provide high quality trainings for the development of every single employee.

Le verage Ratio: By using a combination of assets, debt, equity, and interest payments, leverage ratio's are used to understand a company's ability to meet it long term financial obligations. Leverage ratios measure the degree of protection of suppliers of long term funds. The level of leverage depends on a lot of factors such as availability of collateral, strength of operating cash flow and tax treatments.

Interpretation: Debt equity ratio shows that PTCL after privatization use more aggressive financing for its operations, and its debts continuously increases after privatization which owners investment more risky. In case of Interest Earned Ratio, the ability to pay its interest payments before privatization continuously improving but after privatization it shows decline, even that in 2008 it shows negative or unfavorable result which is (5.26) Times.

Impacts of Privatization on PTCL cable. In Pakistan PTCL has a fastest growing and largest network of broadband services. Within a short time after its services launch (2years) it acquires more than 150,000 subscribers from 150 towns and cities across the country. PTCL offer "digital interactive television" services with the highest digital quality picture. More than hundred TV channels are offer in big cities like Lahore, Karachi and Rawalpindi and Islamabad by PTCL Smart TV.
3.4.2 Weakness
Not been able to nurture its growth around customer services oriented strategy Internal organizational and business processes issues Monopolistic culture has further added to its complexities PTCL-V, the fixed wireless phone service is poor Over employment & low productivity. Slow decision making including external interferences. PTCL has a continuous downward trend in its revenue since 2005, where PTCL has Rs.75,972 million revenue and the year Ended June, 2008 it has Rs.61,086 million, when it comes to after tax loss of 2825 million Rupees. Continuous decline in the number of subscriber from 5million in 2006 to 3.5million till late 2008. . Employees are unaware of work ethics, and are irresponsible especially those working in the rural areas. Slow pace in adopting the latest technology. Telephonic complaint will rarely complete, customer need to go physically to the offices for making complaints. PTCL has no Research and Development.

There is no strong competition in the landline market.

Increased competition in long distance continues to exert pressure. Exposure to market competition Migration to Cellular Networks Ability to Attract & Retain Quality Professionals Reduction in International Settlement Rates There is continues price war between telecom operator in Pakistan.

4.1 Conclusion:
Privatization of PTCL have both positive and negative impacts but the negative impacts are more then its positive impacts. Some negative impacts are: The numbers of subscribers are decreases year to year because of poor customer services, poor quality of service, old technology and higher prices then major telecom competitors. PTCL is in the process of layoff and provides a huge some for this purpose while competitors have skilled Personnel and offers attractive packages. Due to competition the revenue of the PTCL is decreases. Besides these negative impacts PTCL also have some positive impacts: PTCL introduced new technology in some areas. Improve customer service Improve
4.2 Recommendations:
I suggest PTCL to improve quality of service, and introducing new products and emerging services to satisfy specific market segment needs besides consolidating its leadership position in fixed line business. The customer interfaces will be fully empowered to achieve corporate objectives. Automation and simplification of internal process, optimization of operational expenditure, enhancement of national backbone infrastructure. Some are as under:

Impacts of Privatization on PTCL network calls. Lower rates of intra-network calls will be strong temptation for customers to remain stuck with PTCL instead of switching over to other choice operators. This practice will be a restraint for other operators, hence will be considered anticompetitive.
