Vedanta, a metals and mining giant, is being demerged into five separate entities. The demerger, approved by the board on May 1, 2026, aims to unlock value and improve operational focus. The five entities are Vedanta Aluminium, Vedanta Oil & Gas, Vedanta Power, Vedanta Iron & Steel, and Vedanta Limited, which will hold Hindustan Zinc and incubate new verticals, including technology. Each shareholder will receive one additional share in each of the four new companies. The demerger will simplify Vedanta's corporate structure and provide opportunities for global investors. The move is part of Vedanta Chairman Anil Agarwal's '3D' strategy - Demerger, Diversification, and Deleveraging - to double the size of Vedanta.
