Adani Group rejected all the allegations
Adani Group says industrialist Gautam Adani and his nephew Sagar Adani have not been charged with violating the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) in an alleged bribery case. Rather, he has been charged with securities fraud, which can carry monetary penalties. AGEL is accused of paying bribes worth US$265 million to Indian officials to win solar power sales contracts, which could have netted the company US$2 billion in profits over a 20-year period. According to the company, the three AGEL executives have been charged only with securities fraud conspiracy, wire fraud conspiracy and securities fraud. Generally the penalties for such charges are less severe than those for bribery. Adani Group has rejected all the allegations and has said that it will adopt all possible legal means to defend itself.
