India’s $213 billion conglomerate Adani Group is recovering from a short seller attack that wiped out $150 billion from its market cap in 2023, before erasing losses. Now, its 62-year-old founder, billionaire Gautam Adani, tells Bloomberg he wants to retire in the next eight to 10 years. In the span of a couple of decades, he has taken the group from a small coal trading firm to a behemoth that controls large chunks of the infrastructure that help power India’s $4 trillion economy. In a series of exclusive interviews with Bloomberg’s Anto Antony, his handpicked successors reveal their plans for green energy, real estate and global expansion — though with a more dialed-back risk appetite compared to the founder.
