Adani Transmission on Tuesday said it has sold 25.1 per cent stake in its arm Adani Electricity Mumbai Ltd (AEML) to Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) for approximately ₹3,220 crore.
“Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) has completed acquisition of 25.10 per cent stake in Adani Electricity Mumbai Ltd (AEML) from ATL (Adani Transmission Ltd) along with an investment in shareholder subordinated debt in AEML on 10 February, 2020,” the transmission and distribution business arm of the Adani Group said in a filing to BSE.
The total QIA investment in AEML is approximately ₹3,220 crore, which includes equity consideration of approximately ₹1,210 crore and shareholder subordinated debt of approximately ₹2,010 crore, the filing said.
