Adani Power Board Approves ₹150 Billion QIP and ₹1 Trillion Borrowing Limit

AHMEDABAD, India — Power generation firm Adani Power Limited (NSE: ADANIPOWER, BSE: 533096) confirmed that its Board of Directors has approved a proposal to raise up to ₹150 billion (approximately $1.8 billion) via a Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP) or other eligible equity-linked instruments on Wednesday, July 22, 2026.

In regulatory disclosures filed with domestic stock exchanges, the Ahmedabad-headquartered company also confirmed that its board cleared a resolution to increase the company’s maximum borrowing limit from ₹750 billion (₹75,000 crore) to ₹1 trillion (₹100,000 crore). The capital authorization accompanies the release of the company’s first-quarter (Q1 FY27) financial results, which showed consolidated revenue from operations reaching ₹189.02 billion and consolidated net profit rising to ₹48.06 billion, driven by sustained domestic electricity demand and higher plant load factors.

Financial Highlights and Q1 FY27 Earnings Performance

Adani Power reported strong top-line and bottom-line operational momentum across its thermal and ultra-supercritical power plant portfolio during the quarter ended June 30.

The expansion in power sales volume was supported by record national peak power demand exceeding 250 GW during summer months. Lower imported coal costs relative to prior peak periods helped support operating EBITDA margins.

Strategic Capital Allocation and Capacity Expansion Plans

The combined ₹150 billion QIP authorization and ₹1 trillion borrowing ceiling provide the financial framework for Adani Power's target to expand its total thermal power generation capacity to 24 GW over the coming years.

Capital market desks note that the QIP proceeds will be deployed to fund brownfield expansions at existing ultra-supercritical plants, acquire distressed power generation assets, and refinance high-cost debt obligations to maintain credit metrics.
