Adani Enterprises Completes Acquisition of Balance Stake in IANS India
Adani Enterprises, via its subsidiary AMNL, acquired the remaining stake in IANS India, making it a wholly owned step-down subsidiary. The acquisition cost was ₹4.70 crore. IANS India reported a turnover of ₹8.81 crore in FY25.
The acquisition of a media company like IANS India is strategically important for Adani Enterprises' media arm, although the financial scale of the transaction (₹4.70 crore) and IANS's turnover suggest a medium impact on the overall conglomerate.
The acquisition of the remaining stake in IANS India by Adani Enterprises' subsidiary strengthens its control and strategic position in the media sector, indicating a positive business development.
Adani Enterprises Limited, through its wholly owned subsidiary AMG Media Networks Limited (AMNL), has completed the acquisition of the remaining 24% Category I shares and 0.74% Category II shares in IANS India Private Limited (IANS). This transaction, executed in accordance with the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) signed earlier, makes IANS a wholly owned step-down subsidiary of Adani Enterprises.
The acquisition was finalized and communicated to the stock exchanges on March 24, 2026, at 10:04 AM IST. This move is considered strategic for AMNL and falls within the media industry. IANS India Private Limited, incorporated in 1994, is engaged in the business of collecting, supplying, and disseminating news. Its turnover for the financial years ending March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were ₹8.81 crore, ₹9.74 crore, and ₹11.86 crore, respectively. The cost of acquisition for this transaction was ₹4.70 crore in cash.
The transaction is considered an arm's length transaction, as AMNL is a wholly owned subsidiary of Adani Enterprises, and IANS is now a wholly owned subsidiary of AMNL.
