What did the Supreme Court bench say?
SEBI will have to complete an investigation in all 24 cases.
Cannot accept the Hindenburg Report as true. There is no means to test the veracity of the Hindenburg report and hence SEBI has been asked to investigate.
There must be some responsibility in making allegations.
Can SEBI be asked to disclose the findings even before initiating proceedings under law? How can we pre-judge SEBI’s findings?
SEBI cannot be asked to accept the news published in a newspaper, even if it is in the Financial Times, as true.
Investigation of 22 cases has been completed
The investigation in 22 out of 24 cases related to the allegations against Adani Group has been completed while in two cases information needs to be obtained from foreign regulators. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta had said that for the remaining two cases we need information from foreign regulators and some other information. We are consulting with them.
