The Adani juggernaut rolls on

MAJOR BUSINESS groups are typically assessed by investors and corporate watchers on a few key parameters. Chief among them are their growth ambitions and, equally important, how well they execute those growth plans. Take any major business group in India or overseas, and you will find the best of the best are known for the power of their ambition and the smoothness of execution. If these two criteria are applied as measures of success, the multi-diversified mega conglomerate Adani Group will rank very high. Over the past five years, the Gautam Adani-led group has set out a scorching pace of growth across key infrastructure sectors — from ports to airports to energy, data centres and realty — backed by massive investments and major assets on the ground. The figures speak for themselves: from group revenues of ₹98,000 crore in FY20, it touched a whopping ₹3 lakh crore or thereabouts in FY26, and counting. The pace of growth and expansion — across two dozen businesses and more — is relentless and Adani shows no signs of slowing down.
