  • Vedanta Shares Drop 63% After Demerger Price Discovery; What Investors Should Know
    April 30, 2026, 2:24 AM EDT. Shares of Vedanta Ltd fell sharply by over 63% to ₹289.50 on the NSE following a special price discovery session caused by its historic five-way demerger. This drop reflects the valuation of the residual Vedanta entity, which now focuses on the Zinc business and global copper assets, excluding aluminium, power, oil and gas, and steel units. The adjustment is procedural, not a market sell-off. Investors will receive shares in four new entities expected to list by mid-May 2026 after regulatory approvals. Volatile trading during the session showed uncertainty around debt distribution among the new entities. The effective ex-date for the demerger is April 30, ahead of a market holiday on May 1.
