Adani Group On Hindenburg New Report: American research and investment company Hindenburg has once again made a new claim in the case related to Adani Group. This time, American short-seller Hindenburg Research has accused market regulator SEBI chairperson Madhavi Puri Buch and her husband of having stakes in foreign funds linked to Adani. However, the SEBI chairperson has said in her clarification that all these are baseless and an attempt to defame her. So now a statement has also been issued by the Adani Group in this matter.
What did the Adani Group say?
The Adani Group has categorically rejected the allegations of Hindenburg and called it a malicious, mischievous and baseless conspiracy to make profits. On the report released by Hindenburg Research on Saturday, the Adani Group has said that the US firm has cleverly presented some selected facts available publicly in this report in its own way. It has no business relationship with the persons named in the report. The Adani Group has said that these allegations are merely recycling of the previously discredited Hindenburg claims, which have been thoroughly investigated and have been proven to be baseless. The Adani Group has also said that in January 2024, the Supreme Court has rejected these allegations.
