Vedanta Stock on Fire: Demerger, Record Profits & Big Money Moves Fuel December 2025 Rally

Vedanta

“One stock. Four new companies. Endless possibilities.”

Vedanta Ltd has turned December 2025 into a blockbuster month for investors. The stock has surged sharply, hitting multiple all-time highs, as strong financial performance combined with a long-awaited demerger approval ignited fresh optimism in the market.

🚀 Vedanta Share Price Hits New Peaks

Vedanta shares climbed to a new 52-week high of ₹607.65 on December 26, finally closing at ₹601.10. The company’s market capitalization now stands at ₹2.35 lakh crore, marking a 35%+ gain in 2025 so far.

Earlier this month, the stock crossed ₹542.75, outperforming the Sensex and trading comfortably above all major moving averages — a strong bullish signal. After the NCLT approval, Vedanta delivered 18% returns in just a short span, proving investor confidence is back in full force.

🧩 Demerger Gets Green Signal — Big Value Unlock Ahead

A major trigger behind the rally was the NCLT’s approval of Vedanta’s demerger on December 25, ending a two-year regulatory journey.

Under the plan:

  • Shareholders will receive 1 share each in 4 new companies
    👉 Aluminium
    👉 Oil & Gas
    👉 Power
    👉 Iron & Steel

  • The parent Vedanta will retain zinc, silver (via Hindustan Zinc) and new-growth ventures.

Experts believe the restructuring could unlock value worth ₹2 lakh crore, with a 1:5 split expected before Q3 FY26 results. The demerger is targeted for completion by March 2026.

💰 Strong Financials Power the Rally

Vedanta’s Q2 FY26 results added more fuel to the stock’s momentum:

  • Revenue: ₹39,868 crore (↑ 5.4% YoY)

  • EBITDA: ₹11,397 crore (↑ 14.9% YoY)

  • PAT: ₹3,479 crore (despite exceptional items)

On an annual basis:

  • Sales grew 15%

  • Operating profit jumped 19.45%

  • Operating cash flow reached a massive ₹39,562 crore

Record aluminium and zinc production has positioned FY26 as Vedanta’s strongest year yet.

🔋 Strategic Wins & Analyst Confidence

Vedanta recently won the Genjana Nickel, Chromium & PGE block auction, strengthening its presence in critical minerals vital for India’s energy transition.

Brokerage Emkay Global has issued a BUY rating with a ₹525 target, highlighting manageable debt levels and potential upside from aluminium prices. With the demerger narrowing the conglomerate discount, long-term sentiment remains positive.

👀 What Investors Are Watching Next

With a commanding 41.52% share of the non-ferrous metals sector, Vedanta remains firmly in focus. Markets are now eyeing:

  • Q3 FY26 results

  • Final demerger approvals

  • Commodity price trends

If momentum continues, Vedanta could stay in the spotlight well into 2026.
