Adani stocks, including Adani Enterprises, have been hammered hard at Dalal Street after US-based short-seller Hindenburg Research made allegations and accused the billionaire Gautam Adani-led group of fraudulent transactions and share price manipulation. Adani, however, refuted the allegations as baseless.
Earlier this week, valuation guru Aswath Damodaran had pegged the fair value of Adani Enterprises at Rs 945 apiece as he said that the Nifty stock was still not cheap even if the allegations made in the Hindenburg report are incorrect. In his detailed calculation, the finance professor showed stock’s fair value without factoring in Hindenburg’s accusations.
On Wednesday, nine out of Adani Group stocks were trading in green. Other than Adani Enterprises, Adani Ports rose 8 per cent, whereas Adani Wilmar and Adani Transmission were locked in buyers’ circuit of 5 per cent, each. Only Adani Total Gas hit a lower circuit of 5 per cent.
