Hindenburg Research on SEBI: As the night deepened, the US short seller firm Hindenburg Research made the latest disclosure, but this time it has directly attacked the chairperson of India’s stock market regulator, i.e. SEBI. Hindenburg has cited whistleblower documents and accused SEBI chairperson Madhabi Puri Buch that Madhabi Buch and her husband Dhawal Buch have had a stake in the same obscure offshore entity of Gautam Adani which was used in the Adani money siphoning scandal. However, it is important to note here that ABP News does not confirm these documents.

Hindenburg’s report begins with the background of Adani revelations
Hindenburg’s report states that it has been almost 18 months since its report on the Adani Group, which presented strong evidence that this Indian group was committing the biggest scam in corporate history. The report begins with the statement that…
Background: “18 months after our Adani report, SEBI’s lack of interest in Adani’s alleged undeclared web of Mauritius and offshore shell entities is surprising.”
Hindenburg further wrote in bold letters in its published report that “We did not realize that the current SEBI chief and her husband Dhaval Buch had hidden stakes in the same obscure offshore Bermuda and Mauritius funds. This was found in the same complex nested structure used by Vinod Adani.”
Note-For information, let us tell you that Vinod Adani is the elder brother of India’s billionaire businessman and owner of Adani Group, Gautam Adani.
Hindenburg Research has said in its allegations that Madhabi Puri Buch was a full-time member of SEBI from April 2017 to October 2021, i.e. for 4 years and 7 months. She had 100 percent stake in a consulting firm named Agora Partners in Singapore. She was appointed as the chairperson of SEBI on 16 March 2022. Just two weeks before this happened, she transferred her shares in the company to her husband Dhawal Buch.
