Hindenburg Research claims that Kotak Mahindra Bank and brokerage firms associated with Uday Kotak were involved in creating and managing the offshore fund structure used by its investor partner to bet against Adani group stocks. The short-seller criticized the Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI) for failing to mention Kotak's name in its show-cause notice. Hindenburg suspects that SEBI may be protecting influential Indian businessmen, suggesting a lack of scrutiny. SEBI's notice, sent to Hindenburg on June 27, is seen as an attempt to intimidate the short-seller.

The Hindenburg report had accused Adani of using tax havens, raising concerns about debt, and engaging in stock manipulation. The Adani group has strongly refuted these allegations, referring to them as unsubstantiated speculations.

US-based short seller Hindenburg Research is accused of sharing an early copy of its report on Adani Group with New York hedge fund manager Mark Kingdon, allowing him to profit from the subsequent market value drop. The Indian regulator, the Securities and Exchanges Board of India (SEBI), has issued a show cause notice to Hindenburg, alleging collusion, insider information use, and misleading tactics to induce panic selling. The notice also implicates a broker connected to Kotak Mahindra Bank. SEBI has given Hindenburg 21 days to respond to the allegations.
