Vedanta has undergone a significant demerger, resulting in the formation of four new companies: Vedanta Aluminium Metal, Talwandi Sabo Power (to be renamed Vedanta Power), Malco Energy (to be renamed Vedanta Oil and Gas), and Vedanta Iron and Steel. This restructuring has raised concerns among its 2.1 million shareholders regarding future dividend payouts. In March, Vedanta declared an interim dividend of ₹11 per equity share for FY26, with cumulative payouts totaling ₹4,300 crore. The company's dividend yield currently stands at nearly 11%. Analysts suggest that while Vedanta will continue to pay dividends, the absolute dividend per share is expected to decline due to the separation of several profitable businesses. Future dividend distributions will primarily be driven by Hindustan Zinc's performance, which holds a 60.71% stake in Vedanta. Investors who previously relied on Vedanta's consolidated yield will now need to assess each new entity's cash flow and growth strategies. The demerger is seen as a recalibration of portfolios for dividend-focused investors, who may need to evaluate their holdings in light of the new structure.
