The Indian Indices that started the day's trade in red on Monday, August 12 have managed to make a remarkable comeback.
Lukewarm Hindenburg
The markets started the day's proceedings in negative territory as it was shrouded by the clouds of uncertainty that were strewn by the recent tranche of Hindenburg revelations. In another report, the American entity levelled allegations against the SEBI chief, Madhabi Puri Buch, of having a vested interest in the Adani group.
This claim, although rebutted by Adani and Buch, caused ripple effects across the board, naturally also impacting the stock markets.
However, after starting in red, the marquee indices have now returned to green ways.
