Mumbai, April 22, 2026 - Vedanta Limited has said its Board of Directors has approved key steps to implement its previously announced Composite Scheme of Arrangement, marking a significant milestone in the company’s ongoing strategic restructuring.
The Board has fixed May 1, 2026, as both the effective date and record date for the demerger. This will determine the shareholders eligible to receive shares in the newly-formed entities resulting from the restructuring.
The demerger aims to simplify Vedanta’s corporate structure by creating independent, sector-focused businesses. It is also expected to attract global investors — including sovereign wealth funds, retail investors and strategic investors — offering them direct exposure to India’s growth story through Vedanta’s world-class assets.

Eligible shareholders of Vedanta Ltd will receive shares in the resulting companies in the following ratio:
- Vedanta Aluminium Metal Limited (VAML): 1 equity share (Rs 1 face value) for every 1 Vedanta share
- Talwandi Sabo Power Limited (to be renamed Vedanta Power Limited): 1 equity share (Rs 10 face value) for every 1 Vedanta share
- Malco Energy Limited (to be renamed Vedanta Oil & Gas Limited): 1 equity share (Rs 1 face value) for every 1 Vedanta share
- Vedanta Iron & Steel Limited (VISL): 1 equity share (Rs 1 face value) for every 1 Vedanta share
Key Restructuring Highlights
The demerger will result in four independent, sector-focused entities across:
- Aluminium
- Power
- Oil & Gas
- Iron Ore & Steel
This move is expected to enhance operational focus, improve efficiency and allow each business unit to align more closely with its respective market, customer base and investment cycle.
Additionally, the restructuring will improve transparency and make it easier for investors to evaluate each vertical independently.
