Following the Hindenburg controversy and subsequent investigation by markets regulator Sebi on allegations of share price manipulation, the 61-year-old tycoon saw the highest decline in his personal wealth globally, data from Bloomberg Billionaires Index shows. In pre-Hindenburg days, the maverick businessman's wealth saw a gravity-defying one-way movement that took him to the position of world's second richest man for a brief period.

The combined market capitalisation of all 10 listed Adani stocks has now fallen to about Rs 14 lakh crore from over Rs 19 lakh crore before the Hindenburg report was released.
