“PSU stocks” refers to stocks of companies that are owned or controlled by the government, commonly known as Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs). These companies are typically involved in sectors such as energy, banking, telecommunications, and infrastructure. In many countries, including India, PSUs play a significant role in the economy and are often listed on stock exchanges, allowing investors to buy and sell shares in these government-owned enterprises. Investing in PSU stocks can offer certain advantages such as stability, steady dividends, and potential government support, but they can also come with risks associated with government interference, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and sometimes slower growth compared to private sector companies.
