The large-cap stock hit a 52-week high of Rs 4238.55 on September 16, 2022 and a 52-week low of Rs 630 on March 1, 2023.  The stock is down 81% from 52-week high.  

In terms of technicals, the relative strength index (RSI) of Adani Transmission stands at 42.2, signaling neither the stock is overbought nor oversold. The stock has been highly volatile with its beta at 1.4 in the last one year. Adani Transmission shares are trading lower than the 5 day, 20 day, 50 day, 100 day and 200 day moving averages.  

Adani Transmission had sought shareholders' nod through postal ballot to raise up to Rs 8,500 crore by way of qualified institutional placement through issuance of equity shares and/or other eligible securities to eligible investors on May 15, 2023. According to the company's BSE filing, 98.64 percent votes were polled in favour of the resolution.

The company's board had approved the proposal at a meeting on May 13, 2023. Adani Transmission had earlier said it anticipates growth opportunities in its existing operations and continues to evaluate various avenues for organic expansion and achieving inorganic growth. 

Toward this, the company continues to require capital for achieving such growth and expansion. 

The stock is trading 81% lower to its record high after the Hindenburg report, which was released on January 24 this year, led to weak sentiment around the Adani Group stocks. In response, the Group called Hindenburg report as maliciously mischievous and unresearched, which, it said, adversely affected the Adani Group, its shareholders and investors. 

Adani Group had said that the timing of the Hindenburg report's publication clearly betrays a brazen, mala fide intention to undermine the group's reputation with the principal objective of damaging the follow-on public offering from Adani Enterprises, which was the biggest FPO ever in India.
