Adani & his latest adventure!

 Adani is known for building a mega business empire in India and abroad but his adventures are far more enthralling than many fiction stories - it can rival "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"!!

The latest salvo from US is the indictment of DOJ,New York based on FBI investigation into bribery conspiracy alleged to have been done within India involving Indian officials of the State Governments.

There are too many coincidences and red-herrings.

The indictment comes a day after Maha and Jharkhand elections happen but well before the winter session of the Parliament.

Adani has been close to Israel by taking control of its Haifa port and has warned Bangladesh about cutting off power supply if his overdue power bills are not paid.

He has made enemies with China in African & Australian projects and last but not the least, has sent a friendly X message to Trump on his win promising more investments and jobs in US.

All the above point towards conspiracy theories and plots hatched against Adani. But why Adani detractors and conspirators instead of accusing BJP Central Govt and BJP State Govts. have selectively picked up all Governments run by Congress and its alliance partners? So, either conspiracy is not there against Adani and BJP or conspiracy is against Adani and Congress-somebody missed the target?!!

Now DOJ indictment of Adani's conspiracy to bribe does not mention a single bribe taker  and the methodology used to bribe these Indian officials. Had FBI known this bribery conspiracy earlier-alleged to have taken place in 2021 &2022 mainly,  they could have legitimately asked Indian Govt to investigate on this as Principle of Comity of nations requires this since the illegal act as alleged , has taken place within India by Indian Citizens.

USA is not world's policeman to snoop on private business men like Adani ,who is a citizen of India , domiciled in India and running legitimate large businesses. Getting private emails of Adani by hacking and snooping is an illegal act done by US Agencies.

Further the US investor funds obtained by Adani was only US175 million but Adani had spent US265 million on bribes as per FBI!!!

Coming to the alleged bribe amount of US265 million to Indian officials and that too over Rs1750 cr to AP Officials alone begs the question of logic.Moreover my CA friend tells me whether any sane business man give US265 million upfront to earn US2 billion over 20 years as alleged !Time value of money in India is costlier with high interest rate in India .Probably FBI did not take into account Indian Interest rate before coming out with this ridiculously huge bribe amount. Further no names of Officials or Politicians , who are the alleged bribe takers , mentioned in the Indictment of Bribe giver!!

Too many loose ends or goof ups?.

India's Semiconductor play-now only semi-final!

India's Semiconductor Manufacturing in 2026–2030: PLI Impact, Global Standing, and AI-Era Policy Needs How India's PLI scheme is building semiconductor capacity, what it means for global supply chains, and what government must do next as AI demand reshapes the industry. 14 min read Modern semiconductor fab with Indian innovation flags and growth trajectory Semiconductors-Policy in India India's PLI scheme commits $10 billion to build semiconductor manufacturing capacity over 5 years, with TATA and Micron fab projects expected to deliver 1–2 million wafers monthly by 2027. By 2030, India could claim 2–3% of global semiconductor production - a major jump from today's <1%, though still far behind Taiwan and South Korea. Geopolitically, this matters: as supply chains de-risk away from Taiwan and China, India becomes a critical third hub for mature-node and memory-chip manufacturing. However, success hinges on three critical gaps the government must address. First...

Why Indian Rupee is falling steeply against US dollar?

  The Indian Rupee recently crossed the 97 mark against the US Dollar, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. If you've been tracking exchange rates or planning a trip abroad, you've probably felt the pinch. Everything from imported electronics to cooking oil is getting more expensive. And your money just doesn't stretch as far as it used to. This isn't a one-day blip. The rupee has been on a steady downward slide for months, and the reasons go deeper than most headlines suggest. It's a mix of what's happening inside India's economy and what's happening across the globe. Trade deficits, foreign investors pulling out money, rising oil prices, the US Federal Reserve keeping interest rates high — all of these are pulling the rupee in the wrong direction at the same time. In this post, we'll break down the key domestic pressures weighing on the rupee and the global forces making the US Dollar stronger. We'll also look at what the Reserve Bank ...
