For the first time ever, five of Mumbai’s leading FM stations, Radio Mirchi, BIG FM, Red FM, Radio Nasha and Radio City, set aside competition to broadcast one common message, one shared mission, and one collective voice, amplifying the movement, ‘Meri Dharavi Badlegi, Hamari Mumbai Badhegi.’ The city’s most iconic RJs including RJ Jeeturaaj of Radio Mirchi, RJ Vrajesh Hirjee of BIG FM, RJ Malishka of Red FM, RJ Rohini of Radio Nasha and RJ Salil of Radio City, walked into one studio to host one unified show. The simulcast aired on 24^th December, from 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM, reaching millions of listeners simultaneously across frequencies, marking a defining moment in the evolution of Radio as a medium for purpose-led impact.

The radio-led movement gained momentum after RJs across stations engaged with a series of emotionally compelling films released by Adani that spotlighted the lived realities of Dharavikars, including challenges around sanitation, health and access to education. What began as conversations soon evolved into a city-wide call for participation, with Mumbai’s radio fraternity stepping out of their studios and into Dharavi. Over the last four weeks, RJs met residents, captured lived experiences, and brought authentic human stories to the forefront for millions of listeners. More than 25 RJs participated across stations, contributing through on-air discussions, FCT ads, anthems, social media amplification, and digital storytelling across Radio, Instagram and YouTube, creating an ecosystem-wide impact.

Additionally, in a symbolic and powerful gesture, participating FM stations ran time checks at the 17^th minute of every hour, with a call-to-action Dharavi Ek Saat (400017) Ke Liye, Mumbai Ek Saath, highlighting Dharavi’s pin code (400017) and turning a number into a reminder, a call for attention, and a sign of unity. RJs across stations shared real human-centric stories on air and amplified them further through their social media platforms, making Dharavi’s stories impossible to ignore.

The simulcast is now available for public viewing on YouTube, extending its reach beyond radio and into digital communities. Watch the simulcast here: https://youtu.be/nS5qJ9NDr1A?si=DukIRXKyRr8BdYxW

Speaking on the strategy, Ajay Kakar, Head – Corporate Branding, Adani Group said, “The first-ever Simulcast on Radio marks more than just a media-first. The redevelopment of Dharavi is, at its heart, a human-centric transformation, and this unprecedented collaboration by the city’s leading Radio stations strengthens that message. When storytellers across rival platforms choose purpose over competition, they amplify not just a campaign, but a movement. At the Adani Group we do believe that when all of us rally behind this mission, together, hum karke dikhaenge that Dharavi Badlegi, toh Hamari Mumbai Badhegi.”

As part of the larger campaign, Adani unveiled three emotionally charged campaign films, crafted to foreground the human stories behind Asia’s largest urban regeneration project. These human‑centric films highlight the positive progress of Dharavi Redevelopment, a transformative effort designed to bring dignity, safety and inclusiveness to a million lives.

Launched by The Times Group and recognised as India’s official and only national pickleball league sanctioned by the Indian Pickleball Association (IPA), under the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports, the IPBL will debut from December 1–7, 2025, at the KD Jadhav Indoor Hall, Indira Gandhi Stadium in New Delhi, showcasing city-based teams and top Indian and global talent in a fast, competitive, and television-friendly format.

With pickleball emerging as one of the world’s most exciting participation-led sports, the association with Adani reinforces IPBL’s vision of shaping a new, contemporary sporting property rooted in accessibility, energy, and a growing fanbase, at a time when India itself is fast establishing its presence as a rising force on the worldwide stage.

Speaking on the partnership, Sameer Pathak, President – Pickleball World Rankings (A Times Group Company), said: “We are delighted to welcome on board the Adani Group for IPBL’s debut season. Their dedication to nurturing Indian sport aligns with our ambition to scale pickleball with the structure, visibility, and ambition it deserves. Together, we aim to elevate the sport’s journey and set the stage for a league that reflects the energy and potential of a new India.” 

Sanjay Adesara, Chief Business Officer, Adani Sportsline, added: “The Adani Group is proud to support the debut edition of the Indian Pickleball League. Pickleball is among India’s fastest-growing sports, and our association reflects our commitment to nurturing emerging talent and building world-class sporting ecosystems. We believe the IPBL has immense potential to scale nationwide and inspire a new generation of athletes.” 

The Adani Group has long been focused on strengthening India’s sporting landscape by building grassroots systems, nurturing young talent, and creating pathways that help athletes progress to national recognition. With IPBL introducing a fresh, competitive league format for one of India’s fastest-growing sports, the partnership brings two aligned missions together: Adani’s commitment to developing sport at the foundation level and IPBL’s drive to elevate pickleball, combining to deliver an experience that amplifies the sport’s growing momentum nationwide.

Pickleball’s rise in India is being matched by its growing international presence. Team India’s historic run at the Pickleball World Cup 2025 in Florida—bringing home 25 medals (8 Gold, 8 Silver, 9 Bronze) and finishing 7th overall as the only Asian nation in the top 10—has accelerated the sport’s momentum nationwide.

Stepping in at this pivotal moment, the Indian Pickleball League, powered by its partnership with the Adani Group, enters its debut season with conviction and purpose. Together, they aim to elevate one of India’s fastest-growing sports and deliver a league experience that is aspirational, modern, and built for today’s India, while contributing to a long-term ecosystem that strengthens the sport’s national presence.

Bengaluru, 7 July 2025: Adani Enterprises Limited (“the Company” or “AEL”), the flagship company of the Adani Group and India’s largest listed business incubators in terms of market capitalization with a long track record of creating sustainable infrastructure businesses since 1993, has announced the launch of its second public issuance of secured, rated, listed redeemable, non-convertible debentures. AEL’s first NCD issuance of ₹800 crore, launched in September last year, was fully subscribed on the first day.

“The second public issuance of NCDs by AEL, further deepens our commitment to inclusive capital markets growth and retail participation in long-term infrastructure development. This new issuance follows the strong market response to AEL’s debut NCD offering, which witnessed capital appreciation for debt investors after a rating upgrade within six months, reflecting the Group’s consistent delivery and financial robustness,” said Jugeshinder ‘Robbie’ Singh, Group CFO, Adani Group. “As the incubator of India’s most critical energy and transport utility platforms including Adani Ports & SEZ, Adani Energy Solutions, Adani Power, and Adani Green Energy, AEL is now successfully scaling the next generation of infrastructure businesses across airports, roads, data centers, and the green hydrogen ecosystem. Each of these verticals is poised to play a transformative role in India’s journey toward a $5 trillion economy,” he added.

AEL is the only corporate (outside of NBFCs) offering a listed debt product for retail investors, thereby creating a rare opportunity for individual and non-institutional investors to participate in India’s infrastructure growth story. With the recent rate cuts and the beginning of a softer interest rate cycle, the AEL NCD issue comes at an opportune time for investors seeking stable, fixed-income avenues. Offering competitive yields compared to similarly rated NCDs and fixed deposits, this public issue presents a valuable proposition for the investors.

The proposed NCDs have been rated “Care AA-; Stable” and “[ICRA]AA- (Stable)”. CARE Ratings first upgraded the credit rating of AEL on 19 February 2025 and reaffirmed the rating on 18 June 2025. ICRA assigned ‘“[ICRA]AA- (Stable)’ rating on 28 March 2025 and reaffirmed it on 17 June 2025. Securities with this rating are considered to have a high degree of safety regarding timely servicing of financial obligations. Such securities carry very low credit risk.

The base size issue is ₹500 crore, with an option to retain over-subscription up to an additional ₹500 crore (“Green Shoe Option”) aggregating up to ₹1,000 crore (“Issue” or “Issue Size”). The Issue will open on 9 July 2025, and close on 22 July 2025, with an option of early closure or extension.

The NCDs have a face value of ₹1000 each. Each application will be for a minimum of 10 NCDs and in multiples of 1 NCD thereafter. The minimum application size would be ₹10,000.

At least 75% of the proceeds from the issuance will be utilized towards the prepayment or repayment, in full or in part, of the existing indebtedness availed by the Company, and the balance (up to a maximum of 25%) for general corporate purposes.

Nuvama Wealth Management Limited, Trust Investment Advisors Private Limited and Tipsons Consultancy Services Private Limited are the Lead Managers to the Issue.

The NCDs are available in tenors of 24 months, 36 months and 60 months with quarterly, annual and cumulative interest payment options across eight series.
