Adani Hindenburg Report

Adani After Hindenburg Report
After the Hindenburg Report was released, the company experienced a significant downfall in market capitalisation overnight; the Report drastically changed the landscape of the Adani group.

A month after the Report was published, Adani already had a game plan and started to fight back by visiting and making deals in global financial hubs like London, Dubai And Singapore.
