The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has sought the assistance from Indian authorities to serve the legal documents to Adani Group founder.
The US panel has invoked the Hague Service Convention to formally notify them of the lawsuit.
The Hague Service Convention, formally known as the 'Convention on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents in Civil or Commercial Matters.'
It was established to standardise the process of delivering legal documents across international borders.
With 68 signatory countries, the convention is the most widely recognised method for international legal service.
