Adani Enterprises Limited, the main company of the Adani Group, has announced the specifics of its substantial ₹24,930 crore rights issue, which was previously approved last month. The company plans to issue 13.85 crore partly paid-up equity shares, each with a face value of ₹1. The price for this rights issue has been set at ₹1,800 per share, representing a notable discount of 24% compared to Adani Enterprises' closing share price on Tuesday.
A rights issue is a method companies use to raise additional capital by offering new shares to their existing shareholders, usually at a discounted price. This provides current investors an opportunity to increase their stake or participate in the company's growth. The 'record date' for this issue is fixed as November 17, 2025. This means only shareholders who own Adani Enterprises shares by the close of trading on Friday, November 14, 2025, will be eligible to participate in the rights offering.
Eligible shareholders will be entitled to subscribe to three new rights equity shares for every 25 fully paid-up equity shares they hold on the record date. The exact dates for the subscription period of the rights issue are yet to be announced.
Impact This significant capital infusion can support Adani Enterprises' expansion plans and debt reduction strategies, potentially boosting its long-term growth prospects. However, it may also lead to share price dilution for existing holders if they do not subscribe. The discounted price could attract investors, but short-term market sentiment may react to the news of a large capital raise. Rating: 7/10
