Adani ports to repurchase Rs 23 billion of 2024 bond

28 Sep 2023 CW Team

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone has announced its intention to repurchase up to $ 195 million worth of its 2024 bonds. This move comes as the Indian conglomerate, backed by billionaire Gautam Adani, aims to put behind the accusations made by a US shortseller. The 3.375% notes experienced their most significant increase in value since April when it was revealed that the company would be willing to pay $975 for every $1,000 in principal for debt submitted for redemption by October 11. Subsequently, the offer price will decrease to $ 965 per $ 1,000. Adani Ports stated that it would finance this repurchase using its cash reserves and clarified that the targeted bond has $520 million in outstanding principal. In recent months, the Adani group has been working to restore investor confidence, particularly following the publication of allegations of wrongdoing by shortseller Hindenburg Research, which had triggered a sell-off in both its bonds and stocks. Adani officials have consistently refuted these allegations.
