Exposure to the Adani Group companies has not created any credit quality concerns as all the group companies are generating strong cash flows, according to bankers.

Shares of the group flagship have fallen below the offer price amid volatility stemming from the Hindenburg Research report that alleged "stock manipulation and fraud".
