A leading energy infrastructure company known for power generation and distribution has made a significant acquisition. This article covers its purchase of a 600 MW power plant for Rs. 4,000 crore, boosting total capacity and expanding its operational footprint.
Adani Power Limited’s stock, with a market capitalisation of Rs. 2,30,066 crores, rose to Rs. 615, hitting the intraday high of up to 3 percent from its previous closing price of Rs. 597.15. However, the stock over the past year has given a negative return of 14.6 percent.
Acquisition Details
Adani Power Limited has completed the acquisition of Vidarbha Industries Power Ltd. (VIPL), a 600 MW coal-based power plant located in Nagpur, Maharashtra, for Rs. 4,000 crore.
VIPL was earlier facing financial trouble and was under the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP), which is a legal process under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) that helps companies in financial distress get a fresh start. After the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) approved Adani Power’s plan on June 18, 2025, the company officially took over VIPL on July 7, 2025. With this deal, Adani Power now owns 100% of VIPL, making it a wholly owned subsidiary. This move increases Adani Power’s total operating capacity to 18,150 MW, strengthening its position as India’s largest private thermal power producer.

Future Plans
Looking ahead, Adani Power has big plans to expand its power generation capacity to 30,670 MW by 2030. The company is building several large power plants using both existing locations (brownfield projects) and new sites (greenfield projects). These include ultra-supercritical power plants, which are more efficient and produce less pollution compared to older thermal power plants. Locations for these projects include Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, and Uttar Pradesh. Through these developments, Adani Power aims to meet India’s growing electricity needs while maintaining its lead in the private power sector.
