Global index provider Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) has announced the removal of the freeze on Adani Group stocks, a move that comes amid ongoing scrutiny following the Hindenburg Research allegations.
Starting with the August 2024 Index Review, MSCI will implement changes.
The adjustments will include updates to the Number of Shares (NOS), Foreign Inclusion Factor (FIF), and Domestic Inclusion Factor (DIF) for Adani Group and associated securities.
According to the announcement, these changes will take effect at the close of August 30 and will be fully implemented by September 2.
MSCI clarified that it will also resume the regular implementation of corporate events for these securities from September 2 onwards.
