Vedanta, which faces bond redemptions exceeding $3 billion over the next 18 months at its UK-based holding company, Friday said it would demerge into six listed companies to undergird the valuations of its revenue streams as diverse as mining, energy, and non-ferrous metals. Mumbai-listed Vedanta, which produces copper, aluminium, iron ore and crude oil, and is a subsidiary of the London-based Vedanta Resources (VRL), said the exercise was aimed at building a simplified corporate structure that would appeal to focused investors. Separate listed companies for each vertical should boost the valuations of revenue streams that typically have slightly different business cycles and competitive dynamics despite sharing the broader industry classification of commodities and natural resources.
