Adani Group stocks surged on Wednesday, defying market volatility amid the lingering Hindenburg saga. The Supreme Court’s impending verdict on the allegations against Gautam Adani’s empire adds anticipation, given the prior market downturn and substantial investor losses.
Today in early trading, Adani Energy Solutions saw the highest percentage gain, rising by 15.55% and reaching an intraday high of Rs 1,244. Adani Total Gas followed closely, which gained 10%, reaching an intraday high of Rs 1,100. NDTV shares surged by 9.9%, hitting a day’s high of Rs 302.5, and Adani Green Energy shares went up by 7.5%, touching an intraday high of Rs 1,745 each.
Meanwhile, Adani Enterprises, the flagship company of the Adani Group, rallied by 6.5%, reaching an intraday high of Rs 3,178. Adani Wilmar shares jumped by 7.2%, hitting the day’s high of Rs 397.8, and Adani Power recorded a 5% upper circuit, reaching Rs 544.5. Notably, Adani Ports and Ambuja Cement share prices reached new 52-week highs of Rs 1,125 and Rs 541.45 respectively. Lastly, ACC shares climbed by 1.6%, reaching an intraday high of Rs 2,332.
By the end of 2023, only Adani Power and Adani Ports had rebounded from the Hindenburg controversy. The New Year brought optimism among investors as Adani stocks showed signs of reclaiming pre-Hindenburg levels. The outlook for 2024 appears positive, with investors closely monitoring recovery efforts.
The awaited Supreme Court verdict, scheduled for today, revolves around petitions related to the Adani-Hindenburg matter. The Hindenburg report accused Adani of stock manipulation, causing significant declines in 2023. Despite this, Adani raised substantial funds, totalling Rs 41,500 crore in 2023.
Global investors, including GQQ Partners, QIA, and Total Energies, played a crucial role in acquiring Adani shares. Adani’s promoters infused Rs 4.5 billion for loan repayment and green investments. In 2023, key mergers and acquisitions, such as Sanghi Cement and stakes in Indian Oil Tanking, showcased strategic moves amid market challenges.
The Supreme Court’s involvement, directing SEBI to investigate short sellers’ allegations in March 2023, aimed to protect investors. The awaited verdict signifies a critical juncture in resolving the Adani Hindenburg case, influencing market perception and stability.
Adani Group stocks have rebounded from Hindenburg-induced losses, with some reaching new highs. The overall market capitalisation, at Rs 15 lakh crore, has recovered but remains below the peak. The financial landscape awaits the Supreme Court’s verdict, holding potential implications for Adani’s future trajectory in the stock market.
