Allegations Against Adani Group and SEBI
A recent investigation by Hindenburg Research has accused the Adani Group of stock manipulation and accounting fraud, prompting significant drops in the company’s stock value. This new batch of allegations also implicates the chairperson of India's Securities and Exchange Board, SEBI, suggesting a conflict of interest due to her investments linked to the Adani family. Hindenburg claims that SEBI's lack of action regarding the earlier accusations may stem from these investments.
