Crisil Ratings has upgraded the long-term debt ratings of Vedanta group companies to ‘AA+’ and assigned a ‘stable’ outlook. This significant upgrade reflects the group’s strengthened financial profile and enhanced financial flexibility, particularly following the demerger of its entities.
Vedanta Limited, the flagship company, underpins the group’s market leadership and holds a substantial stake in Hindustan Zinc, contributing to its overall stability. The agency anticipates that the group’s leverage will remain comfortably below 1.0x over the medium term, a key indicator of financial health.
The diversification across various metal segments further bolsters Vedanta’s operating profile, providing resilience against market fluctuations. This upgrade by Crisil Ratings underscores the group’s strategic financial management and robust operational performance.
