Vedanta Plans Third Domestic Rupee Bond Issue to Raise ₹1,000 Crore
Vedanta Ltd., controlled by billionaire Anil Agarwal, plans to raise at least ₹1,000 crore through a third domestic rupee bond issue this year, with maturities ranging from three to seven years. The proceeds will primarily refinance existing debt. This move aligns with a broader trend of Indian companies tapping bond markets amid expectations of potential interest rate hikes. Vedanta previously raised ₹7,575 crore through two bond sales in March, contributing to a domestic bond market recovering after a slow start.
