"Our partnership with the Adani Group reflects our confidence in their contributions to the green energy and sustainability sectors," IHC, one of Adani group's key foreign investors, said in a statement.
"As with all our investments, our team continues to evaluate relevant information and developments. At this time, our outlook on these investments remains unchanged."
