We show that the baryon asymmetry produced by the out of equilibrium decay of heavy $GUT$ scalars can be the baryon asymmetry that is observed today. No restrictions need be imposed on the initial values of $B$, $L$ and $B-L$, nor on the neutrino masses; no new symmetries need be gauged nor new fermions introduced. We find two mechanisms that can bring this about for any $GUT$ gauge group. Two illustrative models are discussed that are robust, and need just two (at most four) more $GUT$ scalar fields than the minimum model. The additional scalar fields can also help in generating an adequately large value of the CP violation parameter and in efficiently annihilating the monopoles. Our work should firmly re-establish heavy $GUT$ scalars as probable progenitors of today's baryon asymmetry.
