Sebi is probing allegations of violation of foreign investment and minimum public shareholding rules by the Adani Group raised by Hindenburg in late January. Foreign shareholding in six listed Adani companies is also under investigation. As early as October 2020, SEBI had initiated an inquiry into the shareholding patterns of the Ahmedabad-based company. Since then, there are indications that there has been a change in FPI shareholding in these institutions.

SEBI suspects that some of the public shareholders holding shares are not actually public shareholders and are related to promoters of Adani companies. SEBI is in the process of introducing changes in norms regarding participation of public shareholders to prevent misuse of foreign investment channels.
