Exactly a year ago, United States forensic financial research firm Hindenburg in its report had dropped a big bombshell, accusing Gautam Adani-led business conglomerate Adani Group. The firm had accused Adani Group of improper use of tax havens and flagged concerns about debt levels. Adani group in its response had termed the report baseless and called the allegations “unsubstantiated speculations”.

On February 9 last year, the Supreme Court agreed to hear a plea seeking Centre to set up a panel monitored by a retired top court judge to probe the allegations levelled against Adani in the report.

However, on January 3 this year, the Supreme Court refused to form the SIT to probe Adani group and said that market regulator Sebi will continue to investigate.

When the Hindenburg report had exploded in 2023, Adani had lost $34 billion in just three days of the release of the report. Following the relief by apex court, the Adani Group firms shares rallied by 18 per cent despite the stock market falling flat.

Here’s how the Adani Group firm shares are performing on the first anniversary of the Hindenburg report controversy.
