According to analysts, this move will allow both conglomerates to leverage their existing distribution networks and supply chain efficiencies to gain a larger share of the construction materials market.

For ABG, the foray into cables and wires complements its broader building solutions business, which includes cement, adhesives, waterproofing solutions, and paints. Adani, on the other hand, is expected to integrate the new venture with its real estate, power, and infrastructure businesses, creating a seamless supply chain for its projects.
