Adani Enterprises Q4 Results: Net Profit Soars 756% YoY to ₹3,845 Cr on Adani Wilmar Stake Sale
Introduction: Adani Enterprises, the flagship company of the Adani Group, delivered a stellar performance in the March quarter (Q4 FY25), posting a remarkable 756% year-on-year (YoY) jump in net profit. The surge in profitability was primarily driven by a one-time exceptional gain from the partial stake sale in Adani Wilmar Ltd. This robust financial performance signals the company’s resilience and its ongoing transformation into a diversified infrastructure and energy giant.
Exceptional Gains Drive Record-Breaking Profit
In Q4 FY25, Adani Enterprises reported a consolidated net profit of ₹3,845 crore, a significant leap from ₹449 crore recorded in the same quarter last year. This unprecedented growth includes an exceptional gain of ₹3,286 crore from the sale of a 13.5% stake in Adani Wilmar. Excluding the one-time income, the company’s net profit still showed a healthy 24% YoY growth, showcasing operational strength beyond extraordinary gains.
Revenue Decline Amid Strong Operational Growth
Despite the impressive profit figures, the company reported a 7.5% YoY decline in consolidated revenue from operations, which stood at ₹26,966 crore in Q4 FY25 as against ₹29,180 crore in Q4 FY24. This drop was largely due to lower volumes in the Integrated Resources Management (IRM) business.
However, the company’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) rose by 19% YoY to ₹4,346 crore, indicating strong operational efficiency and cost management.
