Why Adani Green Share Price is Rising

In the news from the renewable energy space, Adani Green was in news today.

Today, on 5 December 2023, the shares of Adani Green surged 14% in early trade and got locked at 20% circuit in the later part of the trading session.

The reason behind today's rally is because the company announced securing an additional US$ 1.4 billion (bn) funding through a senior debt facility. This funding increases the company's total construction financing framework to US$ 3 bn.

This huge inflow of fund is a crucial step for the development of the world's largest renewable energy park at Khavda in Gujarat, with a planned initial stage capacity of 2,167 megawatt (MW).

Adani Green Energy aims to achieve 45 gigawatt (GW) of operating renewable capacity by 2030 and this Khavda project plays a significant role in this vision.

The management of the company aims to accelerate development activities at the Khavda project, which is poised to become the world's largest Renewable Energy Park with a planned generation capacity of 17 GW.

In a month, the share has rallied over 45% and eroded investors wealth by 34% in a year.

If we have a look at other Adani group stocks, they were trading in green after the news broke out that the US agency declared the accusations made by Hindenburg Research as irrelevant.

A similar outcome was seen after the supreme court hearing on 28 November 2023, here's why.
