Backstory,In July-21 Govt in parliament responded to questions raised by @MahuaMoitra and stated that SEBI is investigating Adani Group

Same day, Adani group clarified that there is no investigation ongoing by Sebi, though theybmentioned that Sebi has sought some "specific information" (more details on this later)
A month after parliamentary response, Sebi kept Adani Wilmar IPO "in abeyance" without giving further details.
Most probably due to Sebi ongoing investigation which Govt mentioned

Adani Group in RHP documents (Adani Wilmar IPO and Adani Enterprises IPO) didn't disclose about any such investigation which govt mentioned
But stated that Sebi sought some information in Nov-20 and it responded but no show cause notice or further communication issued

Also interesting to note is how the description of "specific information" sought by Investigation dept of Sebi has changed in both (Adani Wilmar vs Adani Ent) has changed

To give perspective on timing,
Sebi sought information from Adani Group in Nov-20 (before @suchetadalal 's tweet on Adani Group) while Govt response came after her tweet

Fast forward to 2023, @HindenburgRes says SEBI investigation is ongoing and not concluded as of Sept-22
Summarizing there are evidences that investigation is ongoing but Adani group has denied it.
If investigation is ongoing Adani Enterprises is no eligible for Fast Track FPO route
If investigation is ongoing Adani Enterprises is no eligible for Fast Track FPO route
Sebi needs to clarify
1. Whether investigation is ongoing or not?
2. What actions Sebi took after taking information from Adani in Nov-20?
3. Clarify on scope & person involved in investigation mentioned by Govt
4. Whether there investigation is on Adani or its FPIs?

Interestingly fast track route of FPO doesn't need Sebi nod.
