Shares of Adani Group companies soared on Monday, May 5, 2025, with several stocks gaining up to 14% after news emerged that Gautam Adani’s representatives had met with former Trump administration officials in an effort to resolve ongoing legal issues tied to a U.S. bribery investigation.
According to a report from The Economic Times, the discussions aimed to explore political avenues for dismissing or de-escalating charges tied to the U.S. Department of Justice’s ongoing probe into foreign corruption allegations involving Adani-linked companies.
This broad rally added over ₹1.2 lakh crore (~$14.5 billion) in market capitalization to the group, restoring investor confidence after weeks of volatility tied to legal uncertainty.
The spike came after insider reports suggested that Adani’s legal advisors met with high-level contacts from the Trump-era White House, seeking support or diplomatic leverage in softening the impact of the investigation. Though the DOJ has not issued formal charges, the group remains under scrutiny for its dealings in the U.S. energy and infrastructure sectors.
Market experts believe that investors are betting on a favorable resolution, particularly if U.S. political support can help shift the legal narrative or delay proceedings. The move also signals Gautam Adani’s aggressive strategy to stabilize international business operations amid global regulatory pressures.
The Adani Group has denied wrongdoing and reiterated its commitment to full legal compliance. A spokesperson stated, “We are cooperating fully with authorities and pursuing all diplomatic and legal options available.”
Analysts caution that while the rally reflects short-term optimism, long-term investor sentiment will hinge on the outcome of the legal case. The group continues to face high scrutiny from global watchdogs, particularly as its global infrastructure deals intersect with political risk.
