  + stars: | 2023-02-01 | by ( Kane Wu Davide Barbuscia | Kane Wu | Davide Barbuscia | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +5 min
The port-to-property group, led by Gautam Adani, one of the world's richest people, has denied the allegations and called them baseless, adding it has always made the necessary regulatory disclosures. "But from an offshore investor's perspective the allegations (made by Hindenburg) ... do not seem to be clearly addressed," he said. The U.S. short-seller has said Adani's "response largely confirmed our findings and ignored our key questions." Australia's corporate regulator said on Wednesday it would review the Hindenburg report as concerns raised also relate to Adani's Australian operations. Adani Enterprises lost nearly 6% on Wednesday to bring its losses since the Hindenburg report to more than $8 billion.

[1/2] Indian billionaire Gautam Adani speaks during an inauguration ceremony after the Adani Group completed the purchase of Haifa Port earlier in January 2023, in Haifa port, Israel January 31, 2023. Spokespeople for Adani Group and SEBI did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The share plunge was sparked by a report by Hindenburg Research last week which alleged improper use by the Adani Group of offshore tax havens and stock manipulation. The source told Reuters the Indian market regulator is also looking into any possible price manipulation of Adani group stocks, as well as examining possible irregularities in the $2.5 billion share sale of the flagship firm Adani Enterprises (ADEL.NS), which concluded on Tuesday. On Wednesday, a day after the share sale closed, Adani Enterprises (ADEL.NS) plunged 28%, bringing its losses since the Hindenburg report to more than $18 billion.

Hindenburg disclosed that it holds short positions in Adani companies through U.S.-traded bonds and non-Indian-traded derivative instruments. Reuters reported the regulator will continue this scrutiny and draw on any fresh information in the Hindenburg report. The Adani group said that several of the CFOs that the Hindenburg report points to have remained within the group and moved on to new roles. The report says key listed Adani companies have substantial debt and are over-leveraged.
☆ Breakingviews: Short-seller attack raises Gautam Adani stakes

HONG KONG, Jan 25 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Hindenburg Research is going after big game, with devastating timing. Now he is taking aim at the world’s third richest man, Gautam Adani, and his $230 billion infrastructure-focused empire. It follows a tussle last year with Fitch Group after its research outfit, CreditSights, called Adani “deeply overleveraged”. Most of the companies in the Adani group – nine of which are listed – are too closely held, massively overvalued, and largely ignored by Wall Street institutions and big Indian mutual funds. Adani Enterprises stock, for example, fell only 1.5% on Wednesday, though Adani Transmission fell 9%.

MUMBAI, Jan 19 (Reuters) - An Indian regulator is investigating investments between Nippon India Mutual Fund, the largest foreign-owned fund in the country, and Yes Bank between 2016 and 2019 for suspected misuse of investors' money, sources said. SEBI's regulations say that the parent of a mutual fund cannot access investors' money either directly or indirectly. The current owner of the fund, Nippon India, as well as the previous owner could be liable, the sources said. As of December 2022, Nippon India was the fourth-largest mutual fund in India with assets under management of 2.9 trillion rupees ($35.46 billion) as well as the biggest foreign-owned mutual fund. On Friday, SEBI proposed further tightening of mutual fund regulations asking mutual fund owners to reduce their stake gradually as a measure to check their influence on investment decisions.

BENGALURU, Jan 3 (Reuters) - Adani Enterprises (ADEL.NS) said on Tuesday it will raise the amount it pays New Delhi Television Ltd (NDTV.NS) stockholders who tendered their shares in the conglomerate's open offer to match what it paid the news broadcaster's founders for their stake. Adani Enterprises said it will pay an additional 48.65 rupees per NDTV share to investors who sold their shares in an open offer between Nov. 22 and Dec 5, taking the payout to 342.65 rupees per share and matching what it paid NDTV founders Radhika and Prannoy Roy. About 5.3 million shares were tendered in the open offer, at 294 rupees per share, and Indian billionaire Gautam Adani now controls about 65% of NDTV after acquiring a 27.26% stake from the Roys last week, four months after launching his takeover. Founded in 1988 and owned by the husband-and-wife team, NDTV had said the takeover move "was executed without any input from, conversation with, or consent of the NDTV founders". Still, the founders sold a majority of their shares and retained only a 5% stake.
☆ India watchdog ire cools foreign banks’ ambitions
  + stars: | 2022-11-16 | by ( Shritama Bose | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
India is bristling at the idea of foreign regulators inspecting its entities which settle trades in government bonds, foreign exchange and more. The higher costs will make the services of European Union and British banks in India uncompetitive, prompting clients to switch to other foreign or domestic banks. Bosses of smaller foreign banks already complain in private that their returns in India are lousy. The Reserve Bank of India, for example, could in theory strike a deal that sets boundaries on on-site visits, as Singapore has done. The Indian regulators include Reserve Bank of India, Securities and Exchange Board of India and International Financial Services Centres Authority, ESMA said.
