Details on US indictment 

Gautam Adani, the billionaire chairman of the Adani Group, has been indicted by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on charges of defrauding American investors and allegedly bribing foreign officials. 

The indictment, which includes Gautam Adani, his nephew Sagar Adani, 30, and several senior executives of Adani Green Energy, along with Cyril Cabanes, an executive at Azure Power Global Ltd, details their involvement in a large-scale conspiracy to defraud investors and global financial institutions.

The Alleged Fraudulent Scheme

According to the SEC’s case, Adani and the others are accused of conspiring to commit securities and wire fraud, as well as engaging in substantial securities fraud.

The charges stem from their roles in orchestrating a multi-billion-dollar scheme designed to secure funds from US investors and international financial institutions using false and misleading statements. 

The defendants allegedly funneled money through bribes and concealed them from investors and lenders.
