Evidence that Adani Group has engaged in stock man...
But if the stock goes to zero and you are shorting it the trade was massively profitable. why would you then be at risk of a margin call?

If trading is halted or it's delisted, how can you prove the value of the stock is zero?

You don’t have to “prove” anything, you already got the money

You're still stuck paying borrow fees and posting collateral, potentially forever.

This is just wrong. If the stock is delisted you no longer are "borrowing" anything. There is nothing to borrow.

An unlisted stock is still a stock, you still have to have a borrow for it until the company is fully wound up (which could be years after being delisted).
