Adani Enterprises Limited has announced the acquisition of the remaining stake in IANS India Private Limited through its subsidiary, AMG Media Networks Limited (AMNL). This move solidifies IANS as a wholly owned step-down subsidiary of Adani Enterprises.
On January 21, 2026, AMNL executed a Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) to acquire the remaining shares in IANS India from Mr. Sandeep Bamzai. Prior to this agreement, AMNL held 76% of Category I shares and 99.26% of Category II shares in IANS.
The acquisition involves AMNL purchasing 24% of Category I shares, which come with voting rights, and 0.74% of Category II shares, which do not have voting rights. This transaction will result in IANS becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of AMNL.
The agreement includes significant terms such as the right to appoint directors, the first right to share subscription in case of new share issuance, and restrictions on changes to the capital structure. The transaction is classified as a related party transaction but is conducted at arm's length.
