Adani settles alleged Iran sanctions violation case with US Treasury

Adani Group on Monday agreed to pay USD 275 million to settle allegations of violation of US sanctions on Iran, with the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) saying the Indian conglomerate extended "extensive cooperation" with the investigation and made "proactive" disclosures. Adani Enterprises, the group's flagship firm, had bought shipments of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) from a Dubai-based trader purporting to supply Omani and Iraqi gas that had actually originated from Iran. The settlement does not constitute a finding of guilt or wrongdoing and resolves all related liabilities. "AEL agreed to settle its potential civil liability for 32 apparent violations of OFAC's Iran sanctions," OFAC said. From November 2023 to June 2025, AEL purchased shipments of LPG from a Dubai-based trader purporting to supply Omani and Iraqi gas. While the Dubai supplier represented itself as a reputable middleman supplying LPG primarily from Oman, as well as Iraq, in .

Compromised PM didn't sign deal but bargain for Adani's release: Rahul

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of signing a trade deal with the US only to secure the "release" of billionaire businessman Gautam Adani. "Compromised PM did not strike a trade deal, but a bargain for Adani's release," Gandhi said in a post in Hindi on X, after reports that the US has agreed to settle the lawsuit that accused Adani of hiding alleged bribery. The US government has agreed to settle the lawsuit filed against Adani, who is accused of duping investors by concealing that his company's huge solar energy project in India was being facilitated by an alleged bribery scheme, according to court filings published Thursday. Reacting to the reports, Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh said it was now clear why the PM agreed to the "hopelessly one-sided Indo-US trade deal that was really a steal by the US".

Norway's sovereign wealth fund drops Adani Green Energy from its portfolio

Norway's USD 1.2 trillion sovereign wealth fund, the world's largest, has decided to exclude Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) from its portfolio due to concern about its alleged links to financial crime. Norges Bank, which had in May 2024 excluded Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd, on its website added AGEL to the list of companies that it has decided to exclude from its portfolio. It cited "gross corruption or other serious financial crime" as the criterion for its decision but gave no explanation.
