This is significance in view of the allegations of fraud and stock manipulation by a short-seller against the Adani Group, which led to a steep fall in the share prices of group firms.
Mumbai, Feb 06: Adani Group will pre-pay USD 1,114 million for the release of pledged shares of its firms ahead of the maturity in September 2024.

It comes days after the company's stocks took a beating following criticism by American short seller Hindenburg Research.
Adani Group stocks have taken a beating on the bourses after Hindenburg in the report made a litany of allegations, including fraudulent transactions and share price manipulation, at the Gautam Adani-led group.
However, the company slammed the Hindenburg Research Report calling it a "calculated attack on India.
"In a 413-page response, Adani Group said the report was driven by "an ulterior motive" to "create a false market" to allow the US firm to make financial gains.
"This is not merely an unwarranted attack on any specific company but a calculated attack on India, the independence, integrity and quality of Indian institutions, and the growth story and ambition of India," it said.
