Vedanta’s share price dropped by nearly 65% following its strategic demerger into five separate entities on April 30, 2026. The company aims to unlock value by separating different business segments.
The demerger ratio is set at 1:5. Before the demerger, Vedanta’s share price was around ₹773. After the adjustment, it fell to approximately ₹290.
Vedanta’s market capitalization stood at ₹1,08,141.78 crore after the price drop. The new entities will be listed within 4 to 8 weeks from the record date.
Eligible shareholders will receive shares in the new companies in a 1:1 ratio. The listing date is expected around June to July 2026.
Analysts project that the revised sum of the parts valuation for all resulting entities combined is estimated at ₹820 per share. Among these, Vedanta Aluminium is believed to be the most attractive entity.
Investors should track the combined value of Vedanta Ltd and the new entities after the demerger. Observers emphasize that this is a significant restructuring of Vedanta’s business model.
