      <title>Adani shares rise as US drops fraud charges against Gautam Adani</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330459196/adani-shares-rise-as-us-drops-fraud-charges-against-gautam-adani</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shares of Adani Group companies rose between 0.13% and 2.32% on Tuesday, after the Trump ​administration &lt;a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="link--external" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/india/us-treasury-announces-275-million-settlement-with-indias-adani-enterprises-2026-05-18/"&gt;moved to dismiss&lt;/a&gt; criminal fraud charges against billionaire Gautam Adani, ‌easing a key legal overhang on the conglomerate.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The US Justice Department on Monday moved to drop charges accusing Adani and associates of paying bribes to secure power supply contracts ​in India, while Adani Enterprises separately settled alleged Iran sanctions violations ​tied to liquefied petroleum gas imports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Shares of the group’s flagship, ⁠Adani Enterprises, rose 1.67% in pre-open trade and extended gains to trade ​2.06% higher at 2,475.30 rupees.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In November last year, US prosecutors accused Gautam ​Adani and associates of agreeing to pay $265 million in bribes to Indian officials to secure approvals for solar power projects and misleading US investors about the group’s anti-corruption practices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Separately, ​the US Treasury Department on Monday said Adani Enterprises had agreed to ​pay $275 million to resolve alleged sanctions violations tied to liquefied petroleum gas imports from Iran.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ‌company ⁠has ceased LPG imports into India and created a compliance leadership role to ensure adherence to Treasury guidance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The resolution of the US cases came after Adani’s attorney, who is also a personal attorney to US President Donald ​Trump, said last month ​that the group ⁠planned to invest $10 billion in the United States but could not proceed while the cases remained unresolved, according ​to a source familiar with the matter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ports-to-power conglomerate has ​faced governance-related ⁠concerns since short seller Hindenburg Research’s 2023 report alleged stock manipulation and improper use of offshore tax havens.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Adani Group has repeatedly denied wrongdoing.&lt;/p&gt;
