According to Reuters, this is the biggest-ever acquisition for Adani Group, owned by billionaire Gautam Adani. It currently has no cement-making operations, but the deal will make it the country's No. 2 cement manufacturer, Reuters added.

Meanwhile, the AZB team was led by senior partner Ashwath Rau along with partners Kashish Bhatia and Jasmin Karkhanis. Partners Samir Gandhi, Bharat Budholia and Aditya Chandel provided support.
