As the Vedanta Group stocks were largely trading in the red, the investors continued to analyse the production updates of the companies and factor them ahead of the upcoming first-quarter financial results.

Vedanta Group’s flagship company, Vedanta Ltd, demerged itself into four separate entities and one original entity at the beginning of May 2026, the shares of those demerged companies were listed on the NSE & BSE on June 15.
