₹47,000 crore in a single day. As Mint reported earlier, the Adani Group promoter firm has increased its stake in two of the group’s listed companies as the conglomerate continues to work on a strategy to recover from the effects of the damaging reports. Shares of Adani Ports jumped 7.10 per cent on NSE while those of the group's flagship firm Adani Enterprises rose 3.68 per cent.
With a gain of 8.90 per cent, shares of Adani Power remained the top gainer among the group stocks. Among the other group stocks, NDTV (up 5.14 per cent), Adani Energy Solutions (up 5.02 per cent), Adani Wilmar (up 2.61 per cent), Ambuja Cements (up 2.47 per cent), Adani Total Gas (up 2.09 per cent), Adani Green Energy (up 1.78 per cent) and ACC (up 1.42 per cent) ended in that order. All these stocks gained after the promoter group in stock exchange filings said it has increased its stake in flagship Adani Enterprises to 71.93 per cent from 69.87 per cent.
The shares were bought by Kempas Trade and Investment Ltd and Infinite Trade and Investment Ltd. This is the second time in less than a month that the promoters have raised stakes in the flagship firm. The promoters had last month increased their stake in Adani Enterprises Ltd from 67.65 per cent to 69.87 per cent.
