Adani Group Completes Full Takeover of IANS

Adani Group Completes Full Takeover of IANS

The Adani Group, led by billionaire Gautam Adani, has now fully taken over the news agency IANS.

They started by buying a little over half of IANS in December 2023.

Then, in January 2024, they increased their ownership to 76%.

Finally, on January 21, 2026, they bought the remaining 24% to own IANS completely.

This means IANS is now a fully owned part of the Adani Group's media network.

The exact amount of money they paid for the final takeover wasn't shared with the public.
