ADANI response to it's HINDENBURG Saga !

Adani made a 413-page response to @HindenburgRes 's report:

Summarising it below. A thread🧵👇:

1/ Adani Group is Deeply over leveraged

- Group has executional excellence

- Net Debt to EBITDA has reduced from 7.6x to 3.2x

- EBITDA has grown at 22%, Net Debt has grown at 11% CAGR in last 9 yrs.

2/ Highly pledged promoter stake in group cos

- The promoter pledge has reduced drastically in the last few years.

3/ Diamond Trading Tax Evasion & Over-Invoicing

🔶 Allegations made in the past have been highlighted

🔶 Issues have been settled with the courts already

🔶 Supreme Court has also exonerated the group of all charges.

3/ Payment of ₹780 Crores to an Offshore Entity

The payment was made by AEL on account of payment for Terminal Charges in Australia

Hindenburg Claimed that NQXT is owned by Adani group co

Not paying them would've been a Related Party Transaction, not at arm's length.

4/ FIIs controlling Adani's public float

Hindenburg claimed Adani Green chose a broker for share sale in 2019 accused of Market Rigging 

Name: Monarch Networth Capital

The stake of 'certain' FIIs increased after share sale indicating that they participated in it.

Response by Adani Group on this👇

These claims are:
🔶 Unsubstantiated accusations
🔶 Without evidence
🔶 No understanding of Indian laws and related party disclosures.

5/ Adani's corporate structure is convoluted - has 578 subsidiaries

- As per Hindenburg, Adani group has 6,025 related party transactions in FY22

- Adani: Infra biz requires creating a subsidiary for each project

6/ Questions on Overseas Entities Buying Adani Group Co shares

- Hindenburg claims that Adani is controlling the public float via foreign entities (ultimately controlled by group)

- Adani group refutes the claim saying that these are public shareholders not related to the group.

7/ Adani getting Journalists jailed

- Hindenburg claims that Adani has got journalists silenced by:

A. Getting them jailed or
B. Through Litigation

using their political connection.

Adani group says that a journalist didn't appear before the court

And consequently a non-bailable warrant was issued against him

The group claims that they'll take the legal recourse where the other person is falsely accusing the group (not in cases of criticism).

8/ Auditor's Experience Issue

- Shah Dhandharia & Co. is a peer reviewed ICAI firm

- Hindenburg has shown utter disgrace by revealing PAN of the CAs

- They are duly qualified CAs and are very well equipped to sign the financials as per the law.

Sholay - Jai-Mausi (Property Indexation)

*Mousi to Jai:* Beta, I have got this message that they have restored the indexation benefit for the LTCG. Is it correct Beta? Jai :   Yes, Yes  Mousi ji, Hon. FM has announced in parliament that they have restored benefits of indexation. Now in case of LTCG from the transfer of land and buildings purchased before 23rd July 2024, the tax  calculated @12.5% without indexation or @20% with indexation- whichever is lower, would be the tax liability. Mousi : Ok Beta, so all the assets purchased upto 22nd July 2024 would be eligible for indexation, right? Jai : Aree nahi Mousi. Only land and buildings would be eligible for this indexation benefit. Other assets like your jewellery etc. would not be eligible. Mousi : Samjhi, got it.  Achha,  I have a partnership with Basanti  and we have purchased a land in that firm. Indexation benefit is available for this land- hai na? Jai : Na,na, na  Mousi ji. Indexation benefit has been  restored only for indi...

P/E ratio can make you rich ! Lets find out.

What is P/E ratio?       In some words P/E ratio = Current stock price / EPS (Earnings per share) of the year.       Here, Current stock price is the price at which trading is going on or the latest close price of a stock and EPS is Earning per share of recent 4 quarters which is also know as TTM EPS (Trailing 12 months ).       Lets take an example and calculate the P/E ratio for a company for better understanding. Lets take XYZ Industries.       Current Price - 2840/-       For EPS let me show you what data you need.     So TTM EPS = 28.53+ 23.67 + 25.71+ 25.52 = 103.43       So P/E ratio = 2840/103.43 = 27.4       Now PE ratio is available at many places but its important to understand where it comes from for knowing its significance. Significance of P/E ratio:       P/E ratio gives us an idea on the valuation o...
