Vedanta's net-zero investments cross $1 billion; renewable use up 52%

Mining major Vedanta on Wednesday said it invested more than USD 1 billion in net-zero transition initiatives in FY26, with renewable energy, lower-carbon fuels, energy efficiency and technology-led interventions driving its decarbonisation efforts. As part of this transition, the group's renewable energy utilisation went up 52 per cent year-on-year to 4 billion units (400 crore units) in 2025-26, equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of around 3 crore Indian households. Vedanta now has nearly 2,000 MW of installed and contracted renewable energy capacity and is targeting 2.5 GW round-the-clock renewable energy capacity by 2030. These initiatives, alongside other decarbonisation interventions, helped avoid approximately 3 million tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions in 2025-26, while greenhouse gas emissions intensity across the group's metals and mining production declined by approximately 14 per cent from the 2020-21 baseline, the company said in a ...

Vedanta group firm Hindustan Zinc Ltd (HZL) is likely to spend about USD 500-600 million (around Rs 5,000 crore) in the current financial year, with most of the capital earmarked for projects already underway and a smaller portion reserved for new initiatives, its Chief Executive Officer Arun Misra said.

Delhi HC upholds Centre's decision to deny oil block extension to Vedanta

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday upheld the Centre's decision to not extend its Production Sharing Contract with Vedanta for an offshore oil block in Gujarat and hand over the operations to Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd (ONGC). Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav dismissed a petition by Vedanta Ltd seeking to set aside the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas's direction passed on September 19, 2025, which rejected its 2021 application to extend the Production Sharing Contract (PSC) dated June 20, 1998, for the Suvali oil block. The petition also sought setting aside of the direction to ONGC to immediately take over the assets and operations of the petitioner over the PSC contract area. The original term of the PSC -- between the Centre, the petitioner, ONGC and Invenire Petrodyne Ltd-- was for 25 years, i.e. from June 30, 1998 till June 29, 2023, and was extendable for a specified period under certain circumstances. The petitioner was the designated operator under the ...

Critical mineral push calls for board-level focus on communication: Experts

India's push for self-reliance in critical minerals is reshaping governance priorities for mining and metals companies, with industry experts calling for communication to become an integral part of board-level decision-making. With the government prioritising supply security for minerals such as lithium, nickel and rare earths to support electric vehicle, clean-energy ambitions and changing geopolitical situations, companies are facing a governance shift that goes beyond capital, technology and regulatory clearances. They said successful project execution will increasingly depend not only on capital, technology and regulatory approvals but also on stakeholder confidence and the ability to sustain a social licence to operate. Sunil Duggal, former Group CEO, Vedanta Group and Former CEO, Hindustan Zinc, and current CEO, Bhumi Ventures, said the role of boards has expanded significantly as mining projects become more stakeholder-driven. "The role of boards has changed fundamentally. .
