<p>The Securities and Exchange Board of India’s regulatory failure and the alleged breaking of laws by the Adani Group were being investigated by an expert panel appointed by the Supreme Court. Earlier in May, the expert panel informed the top court that the allegations of stock price manipulation or norm violation by the Adani Group cannot be proven at this time.</p>
<p>The Supreme Court-appointed panel’s findings, which said that it found no fault, was cited by Gautam Adani on June 27 in the annual report of his flagship company Adani Enterprises Ltd. The tycoon described the study as containing “targeted misinformation” and “outdated discredited allegations” that were intended to harm his name and make money by purposefully driving down stock prices.</p>
