Adani Power Plans to Acquire 51% Stake in Jaiprakash Power Ventures by 2026
Adani Power plans to increase its stake in Jaiprakash Power Ventures (JP Power) from 24% to 51% by the end of 2026. This will involve purchasing an additional 2% stake through the secondary market, triggering a mandatory open offer to acquire 25% more shares from public shareholders at a premium of Rs 25-27 per share, above the current Rs 15.35 market price. The move follows a May agreement where Adani Power acquired 24% stake and thermal assets from Jaiprakash Associates. An Adani Group spokesperson declined to comment.
