Adani vs Hindenburg

Following the report by Hindenburg Research, the shares of Adani Group saw a severe decline. The group accused the US-based research house of not doing its research properly, copy-pasting from company disclosures, and misleading the public.

Additionally, the group also said that the report has been made with the intent to make profits at the expense of the company's stakeholders and public investors. The company also mentioned in its response that 68 of the 88 questions had already been answered by the company in its annual reports, financial statements, and stock exchange disclosures. From the 20 pending questions, the company claimed that 16 are focused on the public shareholders and their source of funding, while the four pending questions are baseless allegations. The group also called this a direct attack on India and its growth.

Hindenburg responded to this 413-page response and said that the fraud cannot be obfuscated by nationalism or a bloated response that ignores every key point that was raised. They also said this is just a method to distract from the issue and instead stroke the nationalist narrative. The research firm also firmly added that they believe that India's growth is being held back by the Adani Group, which is claiming to be a nationalist while it is looting the nation.
