ITD Cementation shares surge over 15% amid reports that Adani Group leading bid for 46.64% promoter stake

Shares of ITD Cementation India soared by over 15 percent in intra-day trading on Friday, September 20, following reports that the Adani Group has emerged as the leading contender to acquire the promoter's 46.64 percent stake in the company. Based on current market valuations, this potential deal, inclusive of a fully subscribed open offer, could be valued at 5,888.57 crore.

The buzz around the deal stems from an earlier announcement on July 4, 2024, when Italian-Thai Development Public Company Limited (ITD), the majority stakeholder in ITD Cementation, revealed its plans to explore divestment opportunities. However, the process remains in its preliminary stages, with no final decision taken yet.
