Gautam Adani gives Rs 750000000000 to Indian government in…, money is big enough to build….

The figure also includes the tax paid by three other listed companies - NDTV, ACC and Sanghi Industries - that are held by the seven companies.

The Adani Group reported a 29% increase in tax payments across its portfolio companies and it has almost reached Rs 75,000 crore. This figure has direct and indirect taxes and also contributions made for employee social security, the company announced on Thursday.

“For fiscal year 2025 (April 2024 to March 2025 financial year), the Adani Group’s total contribution to the exchequer increased by 29 per cent to Rs 74,945 crore, from Rs 58,104 crore in FY 2023-24, through its portfolio of listed entities,” it said in a statement. This huge amount can build entire metro network of one city.

The Rs 74,945 crore tax outgo in FY25 is roughly the cost of building the entire Mumbai Metro network – an infrastructure lifeline for millions of people. It’s also nearly enough to host a modern-day Olympics.
