New Delhi – The Supreme Court has refused to order a probe by a Special Investigation Team (SIT) in the Adani-Hindenburg case. Rather, it has endorsed an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The Supreme Court also clarified that it will not intervene in SEBI’s Investigation.
The Court said that ‘SEBI’ has investigated 22 out of 24 cases. We are ordering to complete the investigation of the remaining 2 cases within 2 months and submit the report. ‘SEBI’ is a Competent Authority and its investigation cannot be doubted. The Supreme Court has asked the Government of India and SEBI to act according to the recommendations of the expert committee to safeguard the interests of Indian investors. The Court asked SEBI to act on the recommendations of the expert committee to improve the existing regulatory system.
