The Hindenburg Report’s effects have badly strained and impacted Corporate Behemoth Adani Group market cap even as policymakers are working around the clock to strengthen the economy. There has been a significant sell-off in the shares of the Adani Group; in three trading sessions, foreign funds withdrew just over $2 billion, or around Rs 17,300 crore, from the Indian market.
