Shares of Adani Group companies are in focus today on the stock exchanges after Hindenburg Research, a US-based short seller, announced it had received a “show cause” notice from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) concerning the Adani issue. Hindenburg revealed that the notice, received on June 27, outlined suspected violations of Indian regulations. Additionally, Hindenburg alleged that SEBI had come to the aid of the Adani Group following the release of its critical report in January 2023. This report had previously sparked significant controversy and scrutiny regarding the Adani Group’s business practices and financial integrity.
