Billionaire Gautam Adani’s embattled conglomerate said that its balance sheet is “very healthy” and is laser-focused on continuing business momentum, as it looked to reassure investors to keep faith in the group despite a share rout triggered by a damning report by a US short-seller.

Group CFO Jugeshinder (Robbie) Singh in an earnings call said the group is confident of its internal controls, compliance, and corporate governance. “Our balance sheet is very healthy. We have industry-leading development capabilities, strong corporate governance, secure assets, and strong cash flows,” Singh said.

The group has been under pressure since the Hindenburg Research on January 24 accused it of accounting fraud and stock manipulation, allegations that the conglomerate has denied as “malicious”, “baseless” and a “calculated attack on India”. Listed companies of the group have lost over USD 125 billion in market value in three weeks.
