New Delhi: Following a complaint from a US short seller, Deloitte quit as auditor of the Adani group's port operations, with the company owned by billionaire Gautam Adani stating that the auditor wanted a larger remit over other firms in the conglomerate.
This resignation comes after Deloitte expressed alarm about a number of transactions highlighted in a study by Hindenburg Research for several weeks prior to the report's release.
