In other developments, April Moon Retail Private Limited—a joint venture of Adani Airport Holdings—plans to acquire a 74% stake in Cococart Ventures Private Limited for Rs 2 billion, as disclosed in a recent stock exchange filing.

Adani Enterprises, which manages the group’s businesses across airports, roads, and data centers, has earmarked Rs 800 billion for capital expenditure in the current fiscal year. Out of this, Rs 500 billion is allocated to airports and Adani New Industries. Adani Airports, which currently operates seven airports and is constructing an eighth facility in Navi Mumbai, has outlined an investment of $21 billion over the next decade, according to group CFO Jugeshinder Singh.

Since entering the airports sector in 2019, the Adani Group has become India’s largest private airport operator.
