Adani denies any deal linked to US criminal case dismissal in affidavit

Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani has denied under oath that there was any promise, agreement or deal behind the US Department of Justice's move to dismiss a criminal indictment against him, saying, in a sworn affidavit, that he was unaware of any exchange connected to the decision. The affidavit was filed in response to a July 8 order by the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York asking Adani to state under oath whether he was aware of any promise, offer or agreement related to the dismissal of the indictment. Adani said he was not aware of "anything promised, offered, sought, received, agreed to, or accepted" by anyone in connection with the dismissal, and denied knowledge of any agreement involving an exchange of anything of value for dropping the criminal charges. The Justice Department had moved to dismiss charges filed in 2024 under the Biden administration, accusing Adani and seven others of participating in a scheme to pay about USD 250 million in bribes to .

Adani Enterprises Ltd has partnered with French clean-technology company Dioxycle to develop low-carbon chemical manufacturing in India, beginning with a pilot plant to produce formic acid using captured carbon dioxide and renewable electricity, the companies said on Friday.

Adani to file affidavit in US court this week on indictment dismissal

Billionaire Gautam Adani will file this week a sworn affidavit in a US federal court stating whether he is aware of any promise, agreement or benefit linked to the US government's decision to dismiss a criminal indictment against him. US District Judge Nicholas Garaufis directed Adani to file the affidavit by July 15 before ruling on the Justice Department's motion to dismiss the indictment with prejudice. The judge asked Adani to state whether he is aware of any promise, offer, agreement or benefit connected to the dismissal, or of any exchange made in return for the charges being dropped. Sources said Adani is likely to file the affidavit this week. The Adani group did not offer any comment on the issue, saying the matter is sub judice. The order of June followed a filing by Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General in the Department of Justice, R Trent McCotter, who said he was the "final and sole decision-maker" behind the dismissal and denied media reports that the decision

CPI(M) alleges IAS officer's removal as Vizhinjam MD was to benefit Adani

The opposition CPI(M) on Saturday alleged that the recent removal of IAS officer Divya S Iyer as the Managing Director of Vizhinjam International Seaport was aimed at benefiting the Adani Group, and demanded that Chief Minister V D Satheesan explain the reasons behind her transfer. Senior CPI(M) leader and Kannur district secretary K K Ragesh made the allegation in a Facebook post amid the ongoing controversy over Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd's (APSEZ) proposed transfer of a 49 per cent stake in Adani Vizhinjam Port Private Limited (AVPPL), the port concessionaire, to Switzerland-based shipping giant Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC). Ragesh alleged that Iyer had played a key role in safeguarding the state's interests by resisting attempts to alter provisions of the Vizhinjam port concession agreement and claimed that Adani authorities had made repeated efforts to have her removed from the post. He further alleged that the then Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan had ...

Adani Green becomes first Indian firm to hit 20 GW renewable capacity

Adani Green Energy Ltd on Wednesday said it has surpassed 20 gigawatts (GW) of operational renewable energy capacity, becoming the first clean energy player in India to achieve the milestone through greenfield development. The company generates over 52 billion units of clean electricity annually. The output accounts for nearly 3 per cent of India's electricity consumption, which is enough to power New York City for a year, or almost the combined electricity needs of Mumbai and New Delhi, the Adani Group company said in a statement. The milestone has been achieved within a decade of commissioning AGEL's first renewable energy project at Kamuthi in Tamil Nadu in 2016, making it India's largest and fastest greenfield renewable energy capacity addition company. The company added 5,051 megawatts (MW) in FY26, the highest annual renewable capacity addition by any company outside China. Commenting on the milestone, Sagar Adani, Executive Director, Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL), said, ...

Adani case: NY judge's query unlikely to stall DoJ move, says lawyer

A US federal judge's decision to seek a fuller explanation from prosecutors before approving the dismissal of criminal charges against Indian billionaire Gautam Adani is a procedural requirement and does not signal that the case is likely to proceed, according to a senior US lawyer familiar with federal criminal practice. "The judge's order is procedural," lawyer Chris Man said. Under Rule 48(a), the Department of Justice must obtain leave of court to dismiss an indictment, and judges can ask questions or seek additional briefing before ruling. "That, by itself, is not unusual," he said. The lawyer added that there is little precedent for a federal court compelling prosecutors to continue pursuing a criminal case once the Justice Department has decided it should be dismissed. Judges "have little discretion," he said. "There is effectively no modern precedent for a judge forcing the Department of Justice to prosecute a case that the executive branch has determined should be abandone
