These insights not only reflect the financial robustness but also underscore the portfolio’s dedication to sustainable practices and strategic investments.
A Glance at the Financial Performance
The past year witnessed remarkable growth for the Adani portfolio, marked by a staggering 63.6% Year-on-Year (YoY) increase in quarterly Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA). As of December 31, 2023, the Trailing Twelve-Month (TTM) EBITDA soared to INR 78,823 crore (USD 9.5 Bn), signifying a 2.5x increase from FY21 and a substantial 37.8% rise from FY23.
Core Infrastructure Fueling Growth
The backbone of this growth lies in the core infrastructure platform, which contributed INR 66,208 crore (USD 8 Bn) to the TTM EBITDA, marking a commendable 35.4% YoY surge. This robust financial performance has garnered positive outlook upgrades from renowned rating agencies such as S&P Global and Moody’s.
