One of the key triggers came from Jefferies. The global financial services firm highlighted several growth drivers across Adani Group’s infrastructure and energy businesses following interactions at its India Forum. The commentary focused on areas including capacity expansion, transmission opportunities, ports and Logistics, trading businesses and improving cash-flow prospects across different Adani Group companies. Several Adani stocks moved higher following the commentary.
Adani Total Gas was the standout performer. It was already trading around 4.4 per cent higher at Rs 612.80 at 9:27 am before the rally gathered further momentum during the session. It is worth noting that the available reports do not indicate a fresh Jefferies recommendation specifically on Adani Total Gas. The stock appears to have benefited from the broader positive sentiment surrounding the group.
