India's largest and most successful corporate entity is in hot water recently. Or hot air, given the Hindenburg.

Today we have a look over the Adani Conglomerate and its founder Gautam Adani. Its debt-driven business practices have propelled it to meteoric success in recent years in every area and sector you can think of. Problem is, a Wallstreet short-selling hedgefund Hindenburg Research alleges the Adani family owns more of their companies than is legal, and have been funneling billions into them from offshore related entities.

Following Hindenburg's claim of Adani pulling off "the largest corporate fraud in history", we have a look at how the politcally-connected [now former] world's 3rd richest man and his family may have been pulling strings behind the scenes to become India's flagship corporation.
