Explainer-'The Corrupt Solar Project': US findings related to Adani's bribery charges

NEW DELHI (Reuters) -Indian billionaire Gautam Adani has been indicted by U.S. prosecutors for conspiring with executives of a formerly New York listed company to devise a $265 million scheme to bribe Indian officials to boost their solar energy business. Adani Group denied the allegations as "baseless", while Indian government officials haven't commented so far. U.S. prosecutors charged Gautam Adani, his nephew Sagar Adani who is director at Adani Green, and six others with alleged bribery and fraud related to renewable energy projects in India that benefitted the tycoon's company and India's Azure Power, which was listed on the NYSE until late 2023.
