BlackRock emerges as largest investor in Adani's $750 mn bond issue

Funds managed by BlackRock, the global investment behemoth, emerged as the largest subscribers of the USD 750-million private bond issuance by the Adani Group. The US-based asset manager, overseeing USD 12 trillion in assets, has taken on one-third of the USD 750 million issuance, which carries a tenure of 3-5 years, sources with direct knowledge of the matter said. This investment comes at a time when Adani Group officials are under scrutiny following a US Department of Justice (DOJ) indictment in a bribery case in November last year. BlackRock's move marks its first private placement in India's infrastructure sector -- a segment the firm is increasingly bullish on. "Infrastructure is one of the most exciting long-term investment opportunities, as a number of structural shifts re-shape the global economy," BlackRock Chairman Larry Fink had stated in January 2024, following the company's USD 12.5-billion acquisition of Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), a major player in ports,

Adani, Aditya Birla Group to compete in wire, cable industry after cement

After cement, billionaire Gautam Adani's group and Kumar Mangalam Birla's Aditya Birla Group are set for a face-off in the wires and cable business with both conglomerates announcing forays into the high double-digit growth sector. In less than a month, both groups -- who have been fiercely competing in the cement sector leaving smaller players way behind -- announced their entry into the wires and cables segment, which is dominated largely by unorganised players and some smaller companies. Entry of the two big players will intensify competition in the wires and cables industry, which posted 13 per cent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in revenue between FY19 and FY24 and is migrating towards an organised branded market. This was evident as sensing disruption from these deep pockets, share prices of listed players in the wires and cable segments slumped a day after March 19, when Adani Enterprises informed bourses of entering the segment.
