Vedanta to Split into Five Companies

Vedanta, a big company, is splitting into five smaller companies.

This is called a demerger.

The plan was approved in December 2025, and the split will happen on 1 April 2026.

The new companies will start trading on the stock market in May 2026.

Vedanta has a lot of debt, and this debt will be shared among the new companies based on their assets and ability to make money.

Three of the new companies will have most of the debt, while two will have almost none.

Vedanta recently made a record profit in the last quarter, which is good news.

One of the new companies, Hindustan Zinc, also made a lot of money because silver prices went up.
