Vedanta Strong Outperformance in 2025

So far in 2025, Vedanta has delivered a 24% return, clearly beating the broader market. In comparison, the Sensex is up about 8.5%, while the BSE Metal index has gained 21%, highlighting Vedanta’s relative strength.

What Is Driving the Rally?

Vedanta’s recent performance is supported by its diversified presence across aluminium, zinc, silver, oil & gas, iron ore, steel and power. The company is India’s largest aluminium producer and a global leader in zinc and silver.

Recently, Vedanta emerged as the successful bidder for the Genjana Nickel, Chromium and PGE Block, strengthening its critical minerals portfolio. This has added to positive sentiment around the stock.

Silver Prices and Zinc India Boost Outlook

China’s plan to restrict silver exports from 2026 is expected to keep silver prices firm in the medium term. This is positive for Hindustan Zinc, where silver contributes a large share of profits. 

Vedanta has generated strong cash flows of over ₹30,000 crore since FY22, helping reduce debt. Net debt-to-EBITDA has improved to 1.37x and is expected to fall further. 

Vedanta plans to demerge into 5 separate listed companies, allowing investors to directly own specific commodity businesses. 

Conclusion

Vedanta’s steady rally reflects strong fundamentals, healthy cash flows and optimism around metals and restructuring plans.
