Adani Enterprises' wholly owned subsidiary AMG Media Networks Limited (AMNL) has completed the acquisition of the remaining 24% voting shares and 0.74% non-voting shares in IANS India Private Limited. With this, IANS has become a wholly owned step-down subsidiary of Adani Enterprises. The total cash consideration was Rs. 4.70 crore, and the deal was completed on March 24, 2026, following the share purchase agreement signed on January 22, 2026. IANS is a Delhi-based news agency incorporated in 1994 that collects, supplies and disseminates news, with a turnover of Rs. 8.81 crore in FY25 (down from Rs. 11.86 crore in FY23). The transaction is classified as a related party deal done at arm's length.
This is a small, strategic bolt-on acquisition within Adani's media vertical, with negligible financial impact given the Rs. 4.70 crore size. Shareholders should see it as a consolidation move that gives full ownership and operational control of IANS under the AMNL umbrella.
