Vedanta Announces Second Dividend, Demerger Hearing Delayed
Vedanta, a large company, is giving money back to its shareholders in the form of dividends.
They approved a second dividend of ₹16 per share, totaling a large payout.
The company had already paid out a dividend earlier this year.
The company's plan to split into smaller companies is being reviewed by SEBI and the central government has raised objections.
A court hearing about this split has been postponed because regulators need more time.
Vedanta approved a second interim dividend of ₹16 per share.
The total dividend payout amounts to ₹6,256 crore.
The first dividend resulted in an outflow of ₹2,737 crore.
The NCLT deferred the hearing on Vedanta's demerger to September 17.
SEBI is yet to complete the scrutiny of the demerger proposal.
