For FY 2025–2026, Vedanta Limited declared an interim dividend of ₹7 per share, or ₹2,737 crore. The company’s dedication to generating substantial returns for shareholders in the face of continuous capital spending is further demonstrated by the June 24, 2025, record date for shareholders.
Vedanta, a mining and metals giant, declared on Wednesday that its first interim dividend for the fiscal year 2025–2026 (FY26) would be ₹7 per equity share.
The decision, which was made at the Board of Directors’ meeting earlier in the day, represents a sizable payout to shareholders of almost ₹2,737 crore.
Vedanta verified that the interim dividend is based on a face value of ₹1 per equity share in a regulatory filing to the stock exchanges under Regulation 30 of the SEBI Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements (LODR) Regulations, 2015.
Date of Vedanta Dividend Record Set
The business had previously informed shareholders that the record date for determining their eligibility for the interim dividend would be Tuesday, June 24, 2025. The dividend payment will be issued in accordance with the legal deadlines.
In its stock exchange notification, Vedanta Limited stated that the First Interim Dividend of ₹7 per share, or approximately ₹2,737 crore, has been reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors at its June 18, 2025, meeting.
One of the favored dividend-paying firms on Dalal Street is Vedanta, which has a long history of providing its shareholders with steady and substantial dividend payments. The company’s dedication to compensating its investors despite ongoing capital expenditure plans and demerger-related developments is further demonstrated by the most recent dividend.

Vedanta Ltd. also disclosed today that it has raised ₹3,028 crore by selling institutional investors a 1.6% share in Hindustan Zinc Ltd. (HZL) through block sales. The action is a component of Vedanta’s larger deleveraging plan, which aims to improve the company’s balance sheet.
According to CNBC-TV18, approximately 7.2 crore shares, or 1.71 percent equity, were exchanged earlier in the day for ₹460.5 each, for a total of ₹3,323 crore. Later, Vedanta explained that it had used an expedited bookbuild method to sell 66.7 million shares.
Vedanta is anticipated to collect ₹2,679.54 crore from Hindustan Zinc’s recently announced ₹10 per share dividend in addition to the equity sale. With an emphasis on capital discipline and continuous corporate reorganization, the dual cash inflows will help Vedanta achieve its financial objectives.
