India's Adani Group outlines restructuring to accelerate growth, Bloomberg News reports (updated)

Recasts paragraph 1, changes sourcing and headline, adds details, comment and context from paragraph 2 onwards

May 1 (Reuters) -
Indian billionaire Gautam Adani's group said on Friday that it plans an internal restructuring aimed at speeding up decision-making, as the ports-to-power conglomerate pushes for growth across its businesses.

The move by Adani Group comes as investment activity picks up across India, Asia's third-biggest economy, powered by heavy infrastructure spending and a revival in private capital expenditure.

Under the plans, the company will introduce a three-layer organisational structure with fewer decision-makers.

"The strategy is anchored in three pillars and supported by strong liquidity and access to capital, enabling accelerated capex deployment and faster project execution," the group said.

This is the conglomerate's second restructuring since 2015, when it spun off its ports and power businesses into separately listed companies: Adani Ports APSE.NS and Adani Power ADAN.NS.

The group will also streamline its contractor base, focusing on fewer, larger partners to improve coordination and execution speed, while providing them with easier access to financing, Adani said.

        On Thursday, the group's flagship firm Adani Enterprises ADEL.NS reported its first quarterly loss in 17 quarters, as it grappled with higher depreciation related to a newly operational airport near Mumbai and a copper plant in the western state of Gujarat, along with a surge in expenses.
