Summary Following the recent Lok Sabha and Andhra assembly elections, Heritage Foods, a company founded by Chandrababu Naidu, saw a remarkable surge in its shares by 55%. This surge resulted in a significant increase in wealth for Naidu’s wife, Nara Bhuvaneshwari, and his son, Nara Lokesh. Bhuvaneshwari, who serves as a promoter in the company, witnessed a rise of ₹535 crore, while Lokesh’s net worth soared by ₹237.8 crore. The surge in Heritage Foods’ shares coincided with the electoral success of Naidu’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) in securing victories in 16 out of 17 seats it contested. This development underscores the close interplay between politics and business dynamics, with implications for both economic stakeholders and the broader political landscape.
In the wake of the Lok Sabha and Andhra assembly elections, Heritage Foods, a company established by Chandrababu Naidu, has witnessed a remarkable surge in its shares, leading to a substantial increase in wealth for Naidu’s family members. Over the course of five days, the shares of Heritage Foods surged by 55%, translating to a staggering rise of ₹535 crore for Naidu’s wife, Nara Bhuvaneshwari, who serves as a promoter in the company.
The stock, which was trading at ₹424 on June 3, saw a remarkable climb to ₹661.25 today, indicating a significant uptick in investor confidence following the election outcomes. Founded in 1992 by Chandrababu Naidu, Heritage Foods has emerged as one of the fastest-growing public-listed companies in India, boasting two primary business divisions: dairy and renewable energy. Its products, particularly milk and milk derivatives, enjoy widespread market presence across several states, including Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Kerala, and others.
At the helm of Heritage Foods, Nara Bhuvaneshwari holds a substantial shareholding, totaling 2,26,11,525 stocks, as per BSE data. Similarly, Naidu’s son, Nara Lokesh, holds 1,00,37,453 shares in the company. With the recent surge in Heritage Foods’ shares, Lokesh’s net worth has also witnessed a notable increase, soaring by ₹237.8 crore.
The meteoric rise in Heritage Foods’ shares coincided with the announcement of Lok Sabha election results on June 4, wherein the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), led by Chandrababu Naidu, secured victories in 16 out of the 17 seats it contested. The pivotal role played by the TDP in the National Democratic Alliance’s (NDA) electoral success further bolstered investor sentiments, contributing to the upward trajectory of Heritage Foods’ shares.
In the larger political landscape, the NDA emerged victorious with 293 seats in the 543-member Lok Sabha. However, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), despite its significant electoral gains in previous terms, fell short of securing a majority with only 240 seats, necessitating coalition-building efforts to form a government.
As Heritage Foods continues to witness unprecedented growth and Naidu’s family experiences a surge in wealth, the intersection of politics and business dynamics remains a subject of keen observation, with implications for both economic stakeholders and the broader political landscape.
