In a historic market debut, the four companies that spun off from Anil Agarwal-led Vedanta’s mega demerger will list on the leading stock exchanges – BSE and NSE on Monday, June 15. Analysts predict Vedanta Aluminium will steal the spotlight, expecting its market cap to hit Rs 1.74 lakh crore and surpass its parent company right after the special pre-open session.

Initially, they will be placed in the Trade-to-Trade (T2T) segment, where every transaction results in compulsory delivery.
Vedanta’s four company listing: What it means for investors
This comes on the heels of the conglomerate’s announcement in April, which stipulated that eligible shareholders would get one share in each of the four newly formed entities for every share they own in Vedanta. The massive spin-off stands as one of the largest corporate restructuring exercises ever witnessed in India’s metals and mining sector.
Vedanta has set May 1 as the record date for the demerger. While Vedanta shares have already adjusted to the restructuring, investors are actively awaiting the listing of the four companies that spun out of it.
Vedanta share price: Expert shares trading strategy
Dr. Ravi Diyora, Director and Head of Research at Kunvarji Group, said that if investors have a long-term perspective, holding the stock – given the company’s strong fundamentals and dividend yield, would be a better option than panic selling.
He further advised investors to remain patient amidst the current volatility in Vedanta’s shares. This market instability is likely to persist primarily until June 15. Once this date passes, all aspects regarding the demerger and share pricing will become clear, allowing investors to gain a proper understanding of the investment outlook.
From a long-term perspective, Diyora said Vedanta’s business is in a very strong position. The consistent growth of the company’s minerals and metals business positions it as a potential ‘blockbuster’ stock for the future. Therefore, staying invested at current levels is the most prudent decision, as the company is likely to deliver good performance for investors in the times ahead.
