On Tuesday, stocks of all the ten listed Adani group firms ended lower, with flagship firm Adani Enterprises tanking over 7 per cent amid a weak trend in the equity markets.

After taking a beating on the bourses, following the report by US-based short seller Hindenburg Research, the group stocks had recovered. However, amid sluggish broader market trends, the group's stocks have declined in the last few trading sessions.

The report had made a litany of allegations, including fraudulent transactions and share-price manipulation, against it.

The group has dismissed the charges as lies, saying it complies with all laws and disclosure requirements.
