According to Adani group, the stake acquisition will likely be in two modes:

Firstly, it is going to be by way of Vishvapradhan Commercial Private Ltd (VCPL).
And then VCPL, its wholly-owned guardian AMG Media Networks and Adani Enterprises Ltd (individuals appearing in live performance).

Key points:

The VCPL holds 1,990,000 warrants of RRPR Holding entitling it to transform them into a 99.99 per cent stake within the latter.
The VCPL has exercised its choice partly, leading to the acquisition management of RRPR Holding – 1,990,000 fair shares or 99.50 per cent.
RRPR Holding holds a 29.18 per cent stake in NDTV which has three nationwide tv channels.
