All the Indian companies including Ambani Adani, Tata, Birala, HDFC, ICICI you name it do it. BTW, I was watching movie on Harshad Mehata. I thought a smarter person would have legalised or found middle ground to what Harshad did. After all, Its legal now what essentially he did. So there in lies clue You cannot ban P notes. This is not that big a market as some like to believe. Imagine a 20K crore FPO is under stress. I mean the market has no depth when things get a little rough. We need FII money.

Yeah its not great intent. But it is within the framework. It is as much a scam as big tech not paying taxes in US. Its not right, but it is how companies work. Finding loopholes and safe space wherever they can. Not every corporate is Tata. yeah, I'm not an expert in finance, accounting or securities regulation - but thus far its clear that this story is a lot more complex than some sort of naive "corrupt bad business corporation exposed by investigation". Things are a lot more murky than that. I'm reluctant to fall into the conspiracy speculation of the connect the dots type, so linking this to the BBC report etc is more than a bit.....extrapolated. However, Hindenburg is no white knight here, they have an agenda, and when I read through their "report", even as a layman its very obvious that a lot of it is narrative building using sensational adjectives instead of hard factual evidence. There is indeed some evidence of financial engineering that is potentially illegal, and at a mimimum worth investigating, but they are seriously hyping it up quite a bit in order to make short selling profits, that is unmistakable.

No doubt on the intentions of a short selling firm... whats suspicious is the timing of the release of this report before budget (last one probably before the general elections next year) and dismissing Adanis response as jingoistic nationalism instead of rebutting atleast some of the points raised in it. No accounting firm worth their salt will just dismiss with that tweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No accounting firm worth their salt will just dismiss with that tweet For me, this was a smoking gun. I would imagine Hidenburg replying something like "Our report is not intended towards India, Indian regulators or even Indian people. This is isolated analysis of Adani group which we believe has resorted to unfair trade practices". But the language they used was what liberal left wing uses on social media. Which makes me wonder if there is famous hand ( which moved currency markets ) backing this report.

randomGuy Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 This is strange 1.fpo @3100 looked improbable with this report .... 2. But Fpo was successful and price rose to 3000-3100 3. Today, price tanked 30% to 2100/- 4. Adani comes out n says he will return the 20k cr collected in fpo at 3100 per share as the price has dropped the next day..
