Adani Group is an Indian multinational conglomerate, headquartered in Ahmedabad. It was founded by Gautam Adani in 1988 as a commodity trading business, with the flagship company Adani Enterprises. The Group's diverse businesses include port management, electric power generation and transmission, renewable energy, mining, airport operations, natural gas, food processing and infrastructure.[3] Adani Group employs over 100,000 people worldwide.[4][5] The Adani Group is controversial, with many reports of irregular practices in various fields.[6][7][8]

In April 2021, Adani Group became the third Indian conglomerate to cross US$100 billion in market capitalisation.[9] It crossed the market capitalisation of US$200 billion in April 2022, becoming the third Indian conglomerate after Tata Group and Reliance Industries to do so.[10] In November 2022, Adani Group market capitalization reached top $280 billion (INR 24 trillion) surpassing Tata Group.[11]

According to The Washington Post, more than 60 percent of the Adani Group's revenue is derived from coal-related businesses.[12]

History

Adani Exports Limited commenced as a commodity trading firm in 1988 and diversified into the import and export of multi-basket commodities. With a capital of ₹5 lakhs, the company was established as a partnership firm with the flagship company Adani Enterprises, previously Adani Exports.[13] In 1990 the Adani Group developed its own port in Mundra to provide a base for its trading operations. It began construction at Mundra in 1995. In 1998, it became the top net foreign exchange earner for India Inc.[14] The company began coal trading in 1999, followed by a joint venture in edible oil refining in 2000 with the formation of Adani Wilmar.[15]

The group's second phase started with the creation of large infrastructure assets. The company established a portfolio of ports, power plants, mines, ships and railway lines inside and outside India.[citation needed]

Adani handled 4 Mt of cargo at Mundra in 2002, becoming the largest private port in India. Later in 2006, the company became the largest coal importer in India with 11 Mt of coal handling.[14] The company expanded its business in 2008, purchasing Bunyu Mine in Indonesia which has 180 Mt of coal reserves. In 2009 the firm began generating 330 MW of thermal power. It also built an edible oil refining capacity in India of 2.2 Mt per annum.[14] Adani Enterprises became the largest trading house in India importing coal with a market share 60%. It also supplies coal to NTPC, India.[citation needed] The Adani group became India's largest private coal mining company after Adani Enterprises won the Orissa mine rights in 2010.[16] Operations at the Port of Dahej commenced in 2011 and its capacity subsequently grew to 20 Mt. The company also bought Galilee Basin mine in Australia with 10.4 gigatonnes (Gt) of coal reserves. It also commissioned 60 Mt of handling capacity for the coal import terminal in Mundra, making it the world's largest.[17] In the same year, the Adani group also bought Abbot Point port in Australia with 50 Mt of handling capacity. It commissioned India's largest solar power plant with a capacity 40 MW. As the firm achieved 3,960 MW capacity, it became the largest private sector thermal power producer in India. In 2012 The company shifted its focus on three business clusters – resources, logistics and energy.[18]

Adani Power emerged as India's largest private power producer in 2014.[19] Adani Power's total installed capacity then stood at 9,280 MW.[20] The Mundra Port, Adani Ports and SEZ Ltd. (APSEZ), handled 100 Mt in fiscal 2013–14.[citation needed] On 16 May of the same year, Adani Ports acquired Dhamra Port on East coast of India for 5,500 crore (equivalent to 88 billion or US$1.1 billion in 2023).[21] Dhamra Port was a 50:50 joint venture between Tata Steel and L&T Infrastructure Development Projects, which has been acquired by Adani Ports. The port began operations in May 2011 and handled a total cargo of 14.3 Mt in 2013–14.[22] With the acquisition of Dhamra Port, the Group is planning to increase its capacity to over 200 Mt by 2020.[23][24]

In September, Adani Green Energy (Tamil Nadu), the renewable wing of the Adani Group, began operations in Kamuthi in Ramanathapuram, Tamil Nadu with a capacity of 648 MW at an estimated cost of 4,550 crore (equivalent to 65 billion or US$780 million in 2023). In the same month, the Adani Group inaugurated a 648 MW single-location solar power plant. It was the world's largest solar power plant at the time it was set up.[27] In December, the Adani Group inaugurated a 100 MW solar power plant in Bhatinda, the largest in Punjab. The plant was built at a cost of 640 crore (equivalent to 920 crore or US$110 million in 2023).[citation needed]

Launched in 2016 to prepare athletes for Rio Olympics, Garv Hai ( transl. We are proud) is a nationwide programme to promote sports and support athletes in India.

Controversies

Coal mining in Australia

Coal spill at Abbot Point, Australia, after Cyclone Debbie in 2017.

The Adani Group launched in 2014, with the support of a part of the Australian Government and Queensland, a mining and rail project (Carmichael coal mine) in Carmichael in Queensland's Galilee Basin for $21.5 billion[84] (over the life of the project, i.e. 60 years[84]). This mine is one of many coal mines in Queensland, Australia. Its annual capacity would be 10 Mt of thermal coal.[85]

This project will occupy an area of 35,000 hectares (86,000 acres). In response to activist pressure some international banks refused to finance it,[86] and in November 2018, Adani Australia announced that the Carmichael project would be 100% financed by Adani Group resources.[87] In July 2019, the project received its final approvals from the Australian Government and construction of the mine commenced.[88]

The Australian Government has been taken to the Federal Court of Australia by the Australian Conservation Foundation twice, once in 2018 and once in March 2020 (still ongoing as of September 2020), relating to its contravention and alleged contravention of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 with respect to the impact of the Carmichael mine on groundwater and the country's water resources.[89]

In 2020, Adani Mining changed its name to Bravus Mining and Resources.[90]

On 29 December 2021, Bravus announced that the first shipment of high-quality coal from the Carmichael mine had been assembled at the North Queensland Export Terminal (NQXT) in Bowen ready for export as planned.[91]

Cronyism

Chairman and MD Gautam Adani has been described as being close to former Chief Minister of Gujarat and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).[92] This has led to allegations of cronyism as his firms have won many Indian energy and infrastructure government contracts.[93] In 2012, an Indian government auditor accused Modi of giving low cost fuel from a Gujarat state-run gas company to the Adani group and other companies.[94][95] In Jharkhand, the BJP-led state government made an exception to its energy policy for Adani's Godda power plant.[96] Both the Adani Group and Modi's government have denied allegations of cronyism.[95]

Leverage

In August 2022, CreditSights, a unit of Fitch Ratings, warned that Adani Group was "deeply overleveraged” and that its recent aggressive expansion had hurt the company's cash flow and credit. It also stated that a potential "worst-case scenario" could lead the company to end up in a debt trap and a potential default.[97][98] However, in September 2022, CreditSights made some corrections in the report and removed the mention of Adani Group being "deeply overleveraged".[99]

Tax evasion

On 27 February 2010, Central Bureau of Investigation arrested Rajesh Adani, managing director of Adani Enterprises Ltd., on charges of custom duty evasion amounting to ₹80 lakh.[100]

In August 2017, Indian customs alleged the Adani Group was diverting millions of funds from the company's books to Adani family tax havens overseas. Adani was accused of using a Dubai shell company to divert the funds.[101] The details of a $235 million diversion were obtained and published by The Guardian.[102] In 2014, the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence mapped out a complex money trail from India through South Korea and Dubai, and eventually to an offshore company in Mauritius allegedly owned by Vinod Shantilal Adani, the older brother of Gautam Adani.[103]

Stock Manipulation

In January 2023 Hindenburg Research published the findings of a multi-year investigation showing evidence that Adani had purposefully engaged in market manipulation to overvalue seven companies belonging to the group by billions of dollars. [104]
