On Monday, the company’s stock finished 10% down on the BSE at Rs 1,261.4.

Adani Group said on Monday that shares in several of its subsidiaries will be released following the prepayment of $1.11 billion in loans due to mature in September 2024.

With the prepayment of loans against shares, the troubled business said in a statement that promoter interests of 12% in Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd, 3% in Adani Green Energy Ltd, and 1.4% in Adani Transmission Ltd will be freed.

The loan pre-payment is “in light of recent market volatility and in continuation of the promoters’ commitment to reduce the overall promoter leverage”, the conglomerate said.

More Adani Group firms will publish December quarter earnings this week, amid a damning report by US short seller Hindenburg Research. Adani Green, Adani Ports, Ambuja Cements, and NDTV will report Q3 results on Tuesday, Adani Power and Adani Wilmar on Wednesday, and Adani Total Gas on Thursday.
