Opinions on Indian stocks and mutual funds LIC-Adani: Indian

LIC says Adani exposure is under 2% and the risk is minimal, a line that’s lighting up mutual-fund chatter. Retail investors are being asked to weigh a pension fund’s due-diligence claim against governance questions and external ratings [1].

LIC’s stance - LIC argues due diligence is done and the exposure is under 2%, with risk labeled as minimal. The claim is framed as a risk signal for funds that hold Adani stocks and related assets [1].

Governance and ratings chatter - Beyond a single line, the discussion toggles to governance and ratings. The thread references a Washington Post report alleging concerns, noting a BBB- rating, while local ratings are described as AAA in some sources; rating agencies S&P and Fitch are part of the overall debate [1]. Some threads even joke about exposure to names like HDFC, Reliance, SBI, and ITC amid the noise [1].

Mindset for traders - In a separate take, a post argues: “As traders and investors we are not allowed to have ideologies.” The message is to question biases, whether you love or hate Adani, and to avoid letting emotion drive trading decisions [2].

Bottom line: the risk-minimal line from LIC is just one data point. For retail funds, governance signals and bias-awareness deserve as much scrutiny as the raw numbers.
