Reliance Infrastructure Share Price Falls 5% Despite ₹526 Crore Arbitration Win

On Wednesday, August 13, Reliance Infrastructure share price hit the 5% lower circuit at ₹257.55. This came even after the company announced it had won an arbitration award worth ₹526.23 crore against Aravali Power Company Private Limited (APCPL).

Details of the Arbitration Case

The dispute began in 2018 when APCPL allegedly ended a contract with Reliance Infrastructure without valid grounds. The company challenged this termination through arbitration.

A three-member tribunal ruled, by majority, that the termination was illegal and partly approved Reliance Infrastructure’s claims for damages and costs. The award includes interest, and the company plans to use the proceeds to strengthen its finances and support growth.

Why Reliance Infra Share Price is Still Falling

Despite the favourable verdict, the stock has been falling for two days straight, with August losses nearing 22%. Investor sentiment remains weak after SEBI rejected a settlement proposal from Anil Ambani over charges related to Yes Bank investments, which could lead to a $208.40 million penalty.

Reports also mention that the Enforcement Directorate recently searched ADAG group locations in connection with a ₹3,000 crore loan siphoning case from Yes Bank.

The stock opened at ₹270.00 and touched a high of ₹273.70 before slipping to its day’s low of ₹257.40. The company has a market capitalisation of ₹10,500 crore, a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 1.94, and does not currently offer a dividend yield.

Conclusion

While Reliance Infrastructure’s legal win should be positive, ongoing regulatory and legal troubles surrounding its promoter group are overshadowing the good news, keeping pressure on the stock.
