Vedanta Ltd, one of India's leading diversified natural resource companies, is moving ahead with its demerger plan. Founder Anil Agarwal stated that the company expects the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) to approve the proposed demerger within the next 4-6 weeks. However, he did not commit to an exact timeline for the restructuring process.

During an exclusive interview with CNBC-TV18’s Shereen Bhan, Agarwal highlighted Vedanta’s significant shareholder value growth, stating that the company's shareholders have witnessed a fourfold increase in value over the past year. He also pointed out that the Indian government holds a 25% stake in all of Vedanta’s businesses, further strengthening its market position.

Vedanta's Exit from Steel Business & Focus on Aluminium

Addressing Vedanta’s exit from the steel business, Anil Agarwal emphasized that steel was never a core business for the company. Instead, the company is focusing on expanding its aluminium production capabilities, leveraging sustainable energy solutions to cater to the transportation, infrastructure, and defence sectors.

With India’s aluminium industry experiencing a surge in demand, Vedanta Aluminium is at the forefront of production growth. The company aims to integrate renewable energy solutions into its operations, aligning with global sustainability goals.

How the Vedanta Demerger Will Benefit Shareholders

Under the demerger scheme, every Vedanta shareholder will receive one additional share in each of the four newly-demerged companies upon completion of the restructuring process. The companies formed through the demerger include:

• Vedanta Aluminium – One of the world’s largest aluminium producers.

• Vedanta Oil & Gas – India’s largest private sector crude oil producer.

• Vedanta Power – A major player in India’s power generation sector.

• Vedanta Iron & Steel – A company with a highly scalable ferrous portfolio.

• Vedanta Ltd – Will retain Hindustan Zinc, the world’s second-largest integrated zinc producer and third-largest silver producer, along with incubating new technology verticals.

Vedanta’s Strategy for Future Growth

The company’s restructuring aims to create five independent entities of global scale, each specializing in mining, production, and supply of key commodities, including:

• Aluminium

• Iron ore

• Copper

• Oil & Gas

• Power generation & distribution

Vedanta Ltd is focused on scaling up operations across its various business verticals, with a clear strategy to drive growth and efficiency. The company’s sustainable energy initiatives, coupled with its strong government partnerships, position it as a leader in India’s industrial landscape.

Vedanta Stock Market Performance

Shares of Vedanta Ltd closed at ₹460.20 on the BSE, reflecting a marginal decline of ₹0.35 or 0.076%. The company’s stock performance remains a key focus for investors, especially with the upcoming demerger expected to unlock significant shareholder value.

As Vedanta Ltd moves forward with its restructuring, industry analysts are closely monitoring the NCLT’s decision, which is expected to be a major catalyst for the company’s future trajectory.
