Shares of Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Limited opened strongly during Wednesday's trading session after a brokerage maintained its bullish stance following MSC Group's $1.4 billion investment in the company's Vizhinjam port. The partnership between the two entities is likely to strengthen APSEZ's growth and long-term cargo visibility.

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZL) share price opened marginally higher on Wednesday and was trading 0.43% higher at Rs 1,818 per share on NSE with a market capitalisation of Rs 4,18,445.05 crore at 9:30 am.

Adani Ports Deal

Terminal Investment, a unit of MSC Group will acquire a 49% stake in Vizhinjam International Seaport for $1.4 billion, said Adani Ports in a statement on Tuesday, June 30. The recent tie-up will mark one of the largest foreign private investments in India's domestic port infrastructure. Adani Ports-Terminal Investment partnership is expected to accelerate cargo ramp-up at the Kerala port and deepen its strategic relationship with MSC.

Adani Ports & Special Economic Zone Share Price Recommendation

The definitive agreement with MSC Group's arm, Terminal Investment, is likely to accelerate the port ramp-up through improved cargo visibility, incremental transhipment volumes and stronger access to Bangladesh and East Africa trade routes, according to Motilal Oswal.

"APSEZ volumes continue to clock healthy growth despite muted industry growth. All-India major port volumes increased 6.6% YoY in May'26 and 4.6% YTD in FY27, driven by strong container traffic growth of ~10%, while POL and fertilizer volumes declined," noted the brokerage in its report. Motilal Oswal maintained a 'Buy' recommendation for the stock.

"APSEZ is well-positioned to sustain growth, aided by ongoing expansions of port capacity, marine services, and integrated end-to-end logistics."

Adani Ports Share Price Target

Motilal Oswal maintained a 'Buy' recommendation with a target price of Rs 2050 per share indicating a 13% upside from its Tuesday's closing price. "We anticipate APSEZ to report 11% growth in cargo volumes over FY26-28. This growth is likely to drive a CAGR of 17%/18%/22% in revenue/EBITDA/PAT over FY26-28E. We reiterate our BUY rating on the stock with a TP of INR2,050 (premised on 16x FY28E EV/EBITDA)."
