JP Power retreats 8.5% after two-day rally as investors book profits following Adani-led resolution progress
Shares of Jaiprakash Power Ventures fell sharply on November 21, declining 8.5% to ₹19.79 on the BSE after a strong two-session rally. The pullback came amid heavy profit booking and elevated trading volumes. JP Power had surged 29% over the previous two days after Adani Enterprises secured creditor approval for its ₹14,535-crore acquisition proposal for Jaiprakash Associates (JAL), which is undergoing insolvency proceedings. Adani received 89% creditor votes, ahead of Dalmia Cement and Vedanta, and has been issued a Letter of Intent . 
With JAL holding about a 24% stake in JP Power, markets earlier anticipated that a financially stronger sponsor could unlock additional value for the power business, triggering the brief rally before today’s correction.
