Vedanta Aluminium Raises ₹13,500 Crore Loan Following Group Demerger; Brokerage Initiates Buy
Vedanta Aluminium Metal Ltd., a unit of Vedanta Group, is raising about ₹13,500 crore (approximately $1.4 billion) through loans from Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank. This is the first major local-currency borrowing since the conglomerate's recent split into separate listed companies. The funds will refinance existing debt inherited from the integrated structure. Separately, brokerage Systematix initiated coverage on Vedanta Aluminium with a Buy rating, citing expected earnings growth driven by higher volumes, backward integration, and strong aluminium demand.
