India's LIC on Monday said it will talk to management of Adani Group days amid the Hindenburg row.

India's Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) on Monday said it will talk to management of Adani Group within days after U.S. short-seller Hindenburg Research accused the conglomerate of high debt levels and the use of tax havens.
