Vedanta subsidiary FACOR to get ₹1,725 Crore loan; VEDL issues corporate guarantee
Vedanta Limited has approved a corporate guarantee of ₹1,725 Crore for its subsidiary, FACOR. This guarantee supports a Rupee Term Loan facility of up to ₹1,725 Crore for FACOR, valid from Feb'26 to Mar'29. The transaction is at arm's length, with no promoter interest.
The issuance of a corporate guarantee for a significant amount (₹1,725 Crore) creates a contingent liability for Vedanta Limited, which could have a medium-term financial impact if the subsidiary defaults on the loan.
The announcement is a routine disclosure regarding a subsidiary's financing and does not inherently carry positive or negative implications for the parent company beyond a contingent liability.

The corporate guarantee issued by Vedanta Limited is for an amount of ₹1,725 Crore, serving as security for the term loan facility. The guarantee facility is set to be effective from February 2026 and will extend until March 2029.
The announcement clarifies that the promoter/promoter group/group companies do not have any interest in this transaction and that the corporate guarantee is issued at an arm's length basis. The issuance of this Corporate Guarantee constitutes a contingent liability for Vedanta Limited.
The meeting of the Committee of Directors commenced at 2:30 p.m. IST and concluded at 3:35 p.m. IST on January 17, 2026.
