Vedanta Limited — Insider Trade, 05-08-2025: Insider/ Institutional Trade
Vedanta Ltd (VEDL) has seen a significant update regarding shares held by its promoter group. Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) has released encumbrances on 56.38% of VEDL shares, approximately 2.2 billion shares. These shares are held by VEDL subsidiaries, including Twin Star Holdings, Welter Trading, Vedanta Holdings Mauritius, VHML II, and Vedanta Netherlands Investments B.V. This release follows the full repayment of a $125 million facility by Vedanta Resources Limited. The encumbrance, which was a financial arrangement rather than a pledge, had been in place since October 2024 and was officially released on August 1, 2025. This development frees up a substantial portion of shares linked to the promoter group, potentially reducing financial overhang for VEDL investors.
