Adani Power, the thermal power generator of the Ahmedabad based Adani group, has become the sixth company in the group to cross the Rs.1 trillion (100,000 crore) market capitalization benchmark. This landmark was hit by Adani Power after the stock spiked by 5% on Monday to touch a high of Rs.272, amidst a market where the stocks were falling like nine pins across the board. The stock of Adani Power is up 170% since start of Jan-22.

Adani Power, incidentally, is the largest private thermal power producer in India with installed capacity of 12,450 MW. Only NTPC (a public sector player) has a higher capacity than Adani Power, although it is substantially larger at 69,000 MW.

Adani Power has thermal power plants located in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh apart from a 40 MW solar power project in Gujarat. Thermal power plants are coal based plants, which still account for a chunk of power generation in India.

It is not just Adani Power that has risen sharply. If  you look from the lows of March 2020, the entire Adani group market is up multi-fold. That has pushed the Adani Group to become the third largest group in India in terms of market capitalization after the Tata group and Reliance Industries. The table below captures the market cap of the major stocks in the Adani group as of 26th April.
