However, many of them may have missed to check with the update or may have failed to get the information due to some technical issues.
Who are eligible investors?
Investors who held or bought Vedanta shares in their demat accounts on 29 April, 2026, are eligible to receive shares in the company’s four demerged entities. Although 1 May was the record date, Vedanta traded ex-demerger on 30 April because the record date fell on a market holiday.
This also means investors who bought Vedanta shares on or after 30 April, 2026, will not be entitled to the shares of the demerged entities. The credit of shares to eligible shareholders has now begun and is scheduled to be completed between 8 May and 11 May.

Investors will get one share each of four companies for every one share held of Vedanta as of the record date. Here's how to check the allotment of shares:
When new companies shall be listed
The four entities are expected to be listed soon. Demerged entities are usually listed within a month or two of a spin-off. According to select media reports, Anil Agrawal-led Vedanta may approach the exchanges for listing by next week. If that timeline holds, the four demerged entities could make their stock market debut in the second half of June 2026.
