As of 1.50 pm, Adani Enterprises shares were down 2.13 per cent at Rs 3,230 on the BSE.

Jefferies projected a significant growth in Adani Enterprises’ Ebitda, doubling from FY23 to FY26 and tripling by FY28.
Adani Ports & SEZ experienced a 1.59 per cent drop to Rs 1,308.30. Despite a hopeful outlook from the Adani Ports management for improved market share and network effects, marketmen have set price targets in the range of Rs 1,280-1,470 for the stock.
Adani Power faced a 2.27 per cent decline to Rs 553.80, while Adani Energy Solutions and Adani Green Energy shares slipped 2.89 per cent to Rs 1,089.45 and 2.39 per cent to Rs 1,932, respectively.
