Adani Group stocks have experienced a remarkable upswing, with gains of up to 13% noted during trading on Monday. This surge comes in the wake of reports suggesting that aides to Gautam Adani engaged with U.S. officials in a bid to have criminal charges related to a bribery investigation dismissed. Last November, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in New York had indicted Gautam Adani along with seven others for allegedly orchestrating a long-term bribery scheme targeting Indian officials.
Investor Sentiment Boosted by Meetings
The recent interactions between Adani representatives and U.S. administration members have sparked renewed investor interest, propelling the stocks of the conglomerate. During the trading session, Adani Enterprises shares climbed nearly 7%, breaking a three-day streak of losses.
- Adani Green Energy and Adani Ports shares rose by up to 8%.
- Adani Total Gas shares skyrocketed over 13%.
- Adani Power shares increased by 10%.
Other stocks within the Adani portfolio also saw positive movement, with Adani Energy Solutions rising by over 6%, and NDTV shares gaining more than 6%. Ambuja Cements and ACC shares also reflected growth, climbing nearly 3% and 2%, respectively.
The Factors Behind the Rise
While the meetings with U.S. officials acted as a catalyst for the stock increase, analysts highlight that the robust Q4 performance of several Adani companies has played a significant role in boosting investor confidence. Despite some stocks experiencing declines after announcing their Q4 results, many investors are capitalizing on buying opportunities, driven by a promising growth outlook.
- Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) reported an impressive 50% increase in consolidated net profit for Q4 FY25, reaching ₹3,023 crore, up from ₹2,025 crore in the previous year.
- Adani Enterprises recorded a staggering 756% year-on-year increase, with a consolidated net profit of ₹3,845 crore, largely due to a significant gain from a 13.5% stake sale in Adani Wilmar.
Earnings Report Highlights
- Adani Power noted a 4% decline in net profit, totaling ₹2,637 crore for Q4 FY25, although its revenue rose by 6.5% year-over-year to ₹14,237 crore.
- Meanwhile, Adani Green Energy achieved a 24% growth in net profit, reaching ₹383 crore in Q4, with core revenue surging by 21.6% to ₹3,073 crore.
