The Adani Group paid ₹74,945 crore as tax and related contributions to the exchequer in FY25, up almost 29 per cent from ₹ 58,104 crore a year ago, it said on Thursday.
The contributions were made through a portfolio of 10 listed entities including Adani Enterprises, Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone and Adani Green Energy. They are equivalent to the cost of building the Mumbai Metro network or hosting the Olympics, said the group in a press statement.
Out of the total payments, direct contributions accounted for Rs 28,720 crore, while indirect contributions were at Rs 45,407 crore. Other contributions, including social security, came up to Rs 818 crore.
The Gautam Adani-led group released its voluntary Tax Transparency Report covering domestic and global operations. It includes a breakdown of taxes borne by the group and those collected and paid on behalf of stakeholders.
The group engaged a professional agency to provide independent assurance on its global tax footprint, according to the statement.
The biggest contributors were Adani Enterprises, Adani Cement, and Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone, the operator of India’s biggest commercial ports network.
“Adani Group considers tax transparency as an integral part of its broader ESG framework,” said the company, referring to environmental, social, and governance. “Through this voluntary initiative, the Group aims to demonstrate its commitment to transparency, foster stakeholder trust and contribute to a more accountable global tax environment.”
