Globe Aerospace branded airport infrastructure, commercial jet, and defense facility under overcast sky.
Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has accused the Adani Group of “brazenly lying” to stock exchanges concerning the conglomerate’s alleged intentions to venture into the airline business. The accusation stems from a purported letter dated June 4, sent by Adani Airports to the Airports Authority of India (AAI).
The letter reportedly seeks a waiver that would permit Adani Defence & Aerospace and its affiliated entities to invest in, establish, own, or control a scheduled airline. This move, if realized, would mark a significant diversification for the Adani Group, which already has substantial interests in airports, logistics, and defense manufacturing.
Moitra’s statement highlights a potential conflict or regulatory challenge, as the group’s alleged pursuit of an airline license through a subsidiary involved in defense could raise questions about its disclosures to the stock market and regulatory bodies. The specifics of the waiver request and the Adani Group’s official response are keenly awaited amidst these allegations.
