The Adani Enterprises (ADE IN) FPO saw VERY muted demand (realtime available on NSE+BSE websites) on Day 1 Friday as the share price plummeted through the bottom of the range.
The Adani Group responded to Hindenburg late Sunday with a 400-page rebuttal, cloaked in nationalistic terms. Hindenburg responded saying the company failed to answer 62 of 88 questions.
