In 2004, the government made just ₹900 Cr from the stock markets.

In 2025, it made ₹78,000 Cr.

This money came regardless of whether you made profit or loss.

That's a 15.7% CAGR for 21 years guaranteed, tax-free, and recession-proof.

Here’s the most profitable story no one's talking about: In 2004:
• Securities Transaction Tax (STT): ₹823 Cr
• Stamp Duty: ₹80 Cr
• Capital Gains: Negligible
Total: ₹900 Cr

In 2025:
• STT: ₹50,000 Cr
• Stamp Duty: ₹8,000 Cr
• Capital Gains: ₹20,000 Cr
Total: ₹78,000 Cr

That’s 8,566% growth in annual revenue.
And ₹213 Cr per day just from the stock market.

Adani is spending ₹62,000 Cr + to buy bankrupt companies.

No, that’s not a mistake.
Every acquisition (from cement to power to ports) has one thing in common: the company was nearly dead.

But why is Adani buying broken businesses?

This is the ruthless, strategic empire play that no one is talking about.

Let’s break it down: In the last 24 months, Adani Group has bought over 15 struggling companies.

On the surface, these were distressed, bankrupt or NCLT-bound assets—liabilities that most wouldn’t touch.

But Adani wasn’t scared.

He was strategically hunting value in places others ran from.

Why?

Adani is spending ₹12,000 Cr to buy Jaiprakash Associates.

This isn’t just another acquisition.

It’s the signal that Adani’s back in expansion mode after the Hindenburg hit.

Here’s what’s really happening and why it matters:

Nestlé wanted to sell coffee to Japan.

Because coffee wasn’t a drink. It was a stranger.

Bookmark and retweet this thread to revisit it later The root cause: Population collapse

Japan’s population peaked in 2008 at 12.8 crore.

It’s now fallen to around 12.1 crore and it’s shrinking every year.

Add to that:

• Nearly 30% of Japanese are over 65

• Youngsters are fleeing to Tokyo, Osaka

• Rural areas are turning into ghost zones

924 km.
5 ports.

India’s longest coastal rail line is coming to Gujarat, and it might quietly do what highways and airports never could.

Why is this a game-changer?

Because currently:

* 95% of Indian trade by volume moves through the sea
* But only a fraction of port cargo moves by rail
* Rail logistics are up to 40% cheaper than trucks

A 1% reduction in India’s logistics costs = ₹1.5 lakh crore saved annually

What’s coming isn’t just a railway. It’s a transformation. Gujarat’s 1600 km coastline is India’s longest.

Yet, most of it remains disconnected from rail infrastructure.

Moving cargo from Gujarat’s ports inland involves long truck routes, traffic jams, and time loss.

But the upcoming 924 km Coastal Rail Line aims to change that

240+ lives lost.
₹1,500+ crore in insurance liability.

Air India pays ₹250 crore+ annually in insurance premiums.
