India’s market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has asked for a six-month extension to complete its probe into possible lapses in securities laws or regulatory disclosures by billionaire Gautam Adani’s Adani group, two people with direct knowledge of the matter said.
SEBI filed its request with the Supreme Court on Saturday, citing complex transactions involving listed, unlisted and offshore entities that require deeper investigations, the sources said.
SEBI and the Adani group did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
