Adani Group companies continued their rise on Monday as the conglomerate improved its operating income and decreased its debt as the company recovered from the lows after short seller Hindenburg's report came out.
What Happened: The stocks are surging today as the broader market is showing strength today after a volatile period in May. The markets have been rocketing as exit polls predict a thundering return of the incumbent government. Both benchmark indices Nifty and Sensex hit all-time highs today.
Jefferies in its note on the conglomerate release last week said that Adani group companies saw an EBITDA growth of 40% in FY24 well above its 5-year CAGR of 27% and improved their leverage after Hindenburg's report. The conglomerate's net debt slightly fell to ₹2.2 lakh crore in FY24 from ₹2.3 lakh crore.

In the previous week, London-based Snowcap Research in a report accused Adani Green of inflating financial metrics, overstating cashflow estimates and relying heavily on related party transactions. The company denied the accusations.
