The announcement is a routine update regarding an extension of tenure for an executive director and a change in Senior Management Personnel status due to a demerger. It does not contain significant positive or negative financial or operational news.
Vedanta Limited announced that its Board of Directors, in a meeting held on May 29, 2026, approved the extension of Mr. Arun Misra's tenure as an Executive Director for an additional two months. This extension is effective from June 01, 2026, to July 31, 2026, and is subject to shareholder approval. The decision was made based on the recommendation of the Nomination & Remuneration Committee and is intended to ensure leadership continuity during broader organizational transitions within the Vedanta Group.

He has been serving as an Executive Director since August 01, 2023. He also holds the position of CEO of Vedanta's Zinc Business and has been leading Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL), a subsidiary. His experience includes overseeing Vedanta Zinc International and previously holding significant roles at HZL, including CEO & WTD. He is also recognized internationally as the first Indian Chairperson of the International Zinc Association.
The Board also noted that following a demerger, the position of CEO – Aluminium Business is no longer considered a Senior Management Personnel (SMP) position for the Company. Consequently, Mr. Rajiv Kumar has ceased to be an SMP of the Company with immediate effect.
