Adani Group Chief Financial Officer Jugeshinder Singh told Managing Editor, Business Today Television, Siddharth Zarabi.

A report by Hindenburg Research alleging accounting frauds, stock manipulations and money laundering last week led to negative sentiment around the Adani Group stocks in the last three sessions.

Adani Group had said that the timing of the Hindenburg report’s publication clearly betrays a brazen, mala fide intention to undermine the group’s reputation with the principal objective of damaging the follow-on public offering from Adani Enterprises, which is the biggest FPO ever in India.

Meanwhile, Sensex was trading 52 points or 0.08 per cent higher at 59,382 and Nifty gained 47  points at 17,651 at 9.56 am today.
