Adani’s Inspiration Arunima Sinha and Kiran Kanojia
While speaking to the media, the Chairperson of Adani Group, Gautam Adani said, “As an ordinary man, the courage, strength, resilience and tenacity of the average Indian are very inspiring and motivating for me. To share with you, at the second edition of our Green Talks series, I was greatly moved by the stories of Arunima Sinha and Kiran Kanojia, two extraordinary women who unfortunately lost their limbs but yet conquered the world. Arunima climbed Mt Everest and Kiran, a blade runner, is running marathons. Both are incredible women and the pride of India.”
Bring an amputee; Arunima Sinha has successfully scaled some of the highest peaks in Asia, Australia, Europe, Africa, and South America. Kiran Kanojia is an Indian para-athlete, who has earned the moniker of “India’s blade-runner”.
The Chairperson said that he was humbled by the spirit the two women.
Further, the business tycoon added, “They are the real heroes of naya (new) India. Their stories moved me so much that I had tears in my eyes. I am truly humbled by their spirit. Could there be anything more motivating than such courage, valor and determination in the face of adversity? Seeing their story, my belief is further reinforced that there is no machine stronger than human beings. Such human stories are the biggest source of motivation for me.”

Adani On Business Growth
The founder of Adani Group, Gautam Adani, said credit metrics at his businesses are improving and a deeper understanding of his rapidly expanding conglomerate would allay any concerns around its borrowings.
Speaking to the media, he said, “In the past nine years, our profit has been growing at twice the rate of our debt.” Asserting that the ports-to-power conglomerate is “financially very strong and secure,” he said that the strong profit trajectory had helped pare the Debt-to-Ebitda ratio to 3.2 from 7.6 in the same time period. That “is very healthy for a large group where most of the companies are in the infrastructure space.”
