Adani Enterprises has made headlines with its impressive financial results for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ending March 30, 2025. In a remarkable turn of events, the flagship company of the Adani Group reported a staggering 756% year-on-year increase in consolidated net profit, reaching ₹3,845 crore. This phenomenal growth can largely be attributed to an exceptional gain of ₹3,286 crore from the sale of a 13.5% stake in Adani Wilmar. In contrast, the same quarter last year saw a profit of only ₹449 crore.
