Gautam Adani flew from Jamnagar to Delhi on June 2 aboard his Embraer Legacy 650, touching down at Indira Gandhi International Airport after a 86-minute hop. The chairman of the ports-to-energy conglomerate was in Jamnagar, home to his refinery operations, ahead of the trip.

The same week, India's Securities and Exchange Board of India is due to submit its final investigation report into the Hindenburg Research allegations that wiped over $100 billion from Adani Group market value in 2023, per a Reuters report. The March 2024 Supreme Court deadline for SEBI to complete the probe flows into this week's procedural hearing.

Adani's travel pattern shows frequent Delhi visits — the capital is where his group's regulatory and government liaising is concentrated. The brief flight and single-day turn likely point to a closed-door meeting with officials or legal advisors ahead of the submission.
