Shares of Adani Power jumped sharply on Tuesday as they extended their rally into the sixth consecutive session.
The consistent rally in the shares came at a time when the company approved an amalgamation scheme for the merger of its six wholly-owned subsidiaries with itself.
On March 22, the company, through a regulatory filing, announced about the merger plan, which is, however, subject to requisite approvals.
