INDIAN billionaire Gautam Adani-owned Adani Power has appointed merchant banker for due diligence on delisting plan of the company.

The board of Adani Power has taken on record the delisting proposal letter and has appointed Vivro Financial Services Private as the merchant banker, reported the Economic Times.

Adani Power has a power generation capacity of 12,410 megawatts across six states in India.

A merchant banker has been appointed to finalise the delisting plan, the company informed the Indian bourses on Wednesday (3).

“After the receipt of the due diligence report from the merchant banker, the board will again meet to discuss the delisting proposal in detail,” the company said.

The Adani group announced its intention to delist its power utility last week, following Anil Agarwal announcing the delisting plans of Vedanta.

Promoters of the company hold 74.9 per cent stake in the company. The public shareholding is just over 25 per cen.

Shares of the company closed at Rs 38.70 on the Bombay Stock Exchange on Thursday (4). The price was up 2.65 per cent. The share price touched its year’s high of Rs 73.75 in November last year.

6 UK retailers facing major store closures in 2025

In 2025, several UK retailers are experiencing major store closures as they struggle to navigate financial pressures, rising operational costs, and changing consumer behaviours. These closures reflect the ongoing challenges faced by traditional brick-and-mortar stores in an increasingly digital world. While some closures are part of larger restructuring efforts, others have been driven by financial instability or market shifts that have forced retailers to rethink their business strategies. Let’s take a closer look at six major UK retailers affected by these trends.

1. Morrisons

Morrisons, one of the UK's largest supermarket chains, is undergoing a significant restructuring in 2025. The company has announced the closure of several in-store services, including 52 cafés, 18 Market Kitchens, 17 convenience stores, and various other departments. This move is part of a larger strategy to streamline operations and address rising costs. Morrisons’ parent company, CD&R, has been focusing on reducing overheads and refocusing on core services.

Sainsbury’s to cut 3,000 jobs and close 3 in-store services

Sainsbury’s has announced plans to cut 3,000 jobs across its operations, along with the closure of three key in-store services. The UK supermarket giant confirmed that the closures will impact its larger stores, with the patisserie, hot food, and pizza counters set to shut down by early summer.

As part of the changes, the most popular items previously sold at these counters will be relocated to other sections of the stores, ensuring customers can still purchase these products despite the closure of the dedicated counters. Additionally, Sainsbury’s will introduce new ‘On The Go’ hubs by autumn, offering hot food options to meet customer demand for convenience.

Unsafe ‘energy-saving’ plugs still sold online despite safety concerns

Plug-in devices marketed as “energy-saving” products are still being sold across online marketplaces in the UK, despite being illegal and failing basic safety tests, according to a new investigation by consumer group Which?.

The study found that several of these cheap devices, often called “eco plugs” or “energy-saving plugs”, not only failed to deliver any energy-saving benefits but also posed potential risks such as fire or electric shock. Some of the products, priced as low as £5, were tested and found to be unsafe for household use.
