On the roles of Adani’s older brother, Vinod, the group says he “does not hold any managerial position in any Adani listed entities” or units and no role in their day-to-day affairs; not in a position to comment on his business dealings. On the choice of Monarch Networth Capital to run share sales, Adani says the firm was selected for its credentials and ability, and the alluded one-month suspension more than a decade ago has no relevance.
