Adani Green Energy Ltd. is in early talks to raise up to $1 billion through an international offshore loan. This marks the company’s first major overseas borrowing since resolving its recent legal issues with United States regulators.
According to Bloomberg reports, the proposed five-year loan facility will likely be raised in two tranches over the next three months. The pricing of this credit line will be benchmarked against the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR).
The company intends to use these international funds primarily for capital expenditures. The new credit line serves as a crucial building block for Adani’s ambitious $100 billion green energy vision, helping speed up its massive renewable energy portfolio. A significant portion of this money is expected to flow into its premier project, the Khavda renewable energy park in Gujarat, to help it reach its long-term target of 45 gigawatts (GW) of capacity.
This global fundraising push comes directly after a major breakthrough in the US. Billionaire founder Gautam Adani and his nephew, Sagar Adani, agreed to pay $18 million to settle a lawsuit with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC had alleged that the company made false and misleading statements to global investors regarding compliance.
By finalising this settlement, Adani Green has successfully removed a massive governance and environmental risk premium. This resolution has restored institutional confidence, allowing the company to tap into global credit channels that were paused since late 2024.
If finalised, this transaction will provide a much-needed lift to India’s slow offshore credit market. Local businesses have raised only $9.6 billion via foreign credit routes so far in 2026, marking the slowest fundraising pace in four years.
