Synopsis: Backed by strong organic port volume growth and the consolidation of the Abbot Point coal terminal in Australia from December 2025, Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone reported a 27 percent rise in consolidated revenue to Rs.38,736 crore for FY26, with net profit attributable to equity holders climbing 15 percent to Rs.12,806 crore; the board raised the dividend to Rs.7.50 per share.
Shares of India’s largest private port operator came into focus on April 30, 2026, after the company announced audited results for the quarter and financial year ended March 31, 2026. The full-year numbers reflect both the operational strength of the domestic port network and the early contribution of the Abbot Point coal terminal acquisition in Australia.
With a market capitalisation of Rs. 3,69,555.04 crore, the shares of Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd were trading at Rs. 1,605.40 per share, down 3.35 percent from its previous closing price of Rs. 1,661.1 apiece. It is trading at a P/E of 31.16.
Consolidated revenue from operations for FY26 reached Rs.38,736 crore, a 27 percent increase from Rs.30,475 crore in FY25. The port and SEZ segment, which contributed Rs.33,532 crore of that total, remains the profit engine, with segment results of Rs.16,942 crore reflecting the high-margin, infrastructure-led nature of port operations.
Q4 FY26 revenue alone stood at Rs.10,738 crore, the strongest quarter of the fiscal year, indicating the business was accelerating as it closed out FY26. Net profit attributable to equity holders came in at Rs.12,806 crore, up 15.4 percent year-on-year.
The EPS for FY26 was Rs.58.23 against Rs.51.35 in FY25. The board has raised the dividend to Rs.7.50 per equity share for FY26, up from Rs.7.00 the previous year, with a record date of June 12, 2026.
However, the profit growth trails revenue growth by a wide margin, and the reason is finance costs. Interest and bank charges jumped from Rs.2,778 crore in FY25 to Rs.3,833 crore in FY26, a 38 percent increase, driven in part by the Abbot Point acquisition debt and the company’s broader capital programme.
Total borrowings on the consolidated balance sheet grew to approximately Rs.55,103 crore. Against this, the company generated Rs.20,356 crore in net operating cash flow, a solid number that suggests the debt load is serviced comfortably.
The consolidated DSCR stood at 5.04 and the debt-to-equity ratio improved to 0.57 from 0.73 a year ago, reflecting the large equity issuance (14.38 crore shares) made as part of the Abbot Point consideration.
Abbot Point Acquisition and Balance Sheet
The Abbot Point Port Holdings acquisition completed December 23, 2025 for an enterprise value of AUD 3,975 million is the most consequential strategic move in this filing. The deal adds a coal export terminal in Queensland, Australia, and expands the group’s international port presence alongside existing assets in Israel (Haifa), Tanzania, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh. Total consolidated assets surged from Rs.1,35,332 crore in March 2025 to Rs.1,85,315 crore in March 2026, an increase of Rs.50,000 crore in a single year, with property, plant, and equipment alone rising by more than Rs.30,000 crore.
The purchase price allocation for Abbot Point is still provisional. The group is working on a final determination of fair values, which may alter reported goodwill and asset values in subsequent periods.
