Adani group stocks have been a topic of interest in the financial world due to the company's rapid growth and diversification into various industries.
However, the company has also faced criticism and controversy. For instance, the latest Adani-Hindenburg saga.
The US-based short-seller released a long-report, criticizing the Adani group at a time when the company's flagship firm Adani Enterprises was on its way to garner Rs 200 billion (bn) via a follow-on public offer (FPO).
The markets became so unpredictable after the report was released. Take a look at the table below to see the performance of Adani group stocks post release of the report.

Our deep value guru and Co-head of Research at Equitymaster Rahul Shah examined whether there are any Adani group stocks that look attractive post the meltdown.
Here's Rahul:
I don't think so. Those with weak fundamentals like Adani Power or Adani Green Energy have scarcely managed to improve them while the ones that were expensive like Adani Total Gas or Adani Ports, don't look cheap even after the recent fall.
In view of this, I am not inclined to keep any of the group company stocks on my watchlist for now.

"For me, the interest of my investors is paramount and everything is secondary. Hence to insulate the investors from potential losses we have withdrawn the FPO," Adani said in a message to shareholders.
