BENGALURU, Jan 26 - Adani Group said on Thursday it is evaluating taking "remedial and punitive action" under U.S. and Indian laws against short-seller Hindenburg Research, which"The maliciously mischievous, unresearched report published by Hindenburg Research on 24 Jan 2023 has adversely affected the Adani Group, our shareholders and investors," Adani Group Head - Legal, Jatin Jalundhwala, said in a statement.
The report by Hindenburg, which said it held short positions in the conglomerate, led to seven listed group companies of Adani losing $10.73 billion in market capitalisation on Wednesday. Indian markets are closed on Thursday for a public holiday. The group, which is led by Gautam Adani, the world's third richest person according to Forbes, dismissed the U.S. short-seller's claims on Wednesday as baseless, saying it was timed to damage its reputation ahead of a large share offering.Adani's secondary share sale saw participation from Maybank Securities and Abu Dhabi Investment Authority among others.
