Vedanta Plans FY27 Dividend Amid Strong Q2 Performance and Odisha Mining Dispute
Vedanta Ltd plans to consider its first interim dividend for FY27 on October 8, following strong Q2 operational performance, including record zinc production and increased power sales. The company reported growth in aluminium, zinc, steel, and power sectors, while oil and gas output declined. Separately, Vedanta Aluminium faces a ₹5,600 crore demand from Odisha Mining Corporation after the Orissa High Court rejected its plea to maintain an old bauxite pricing agreement, with the case now pending before the Supreme Court.
