Encumbrance flagged over 56.38 percent of VOGL shares via Vedanta group bonds

GLAS Agency (Hong Kong) as security trustee disclosed encumbrance over 2,204,724,753 shares of Vedanta Oil and Gas, about 56.38 percent of equity. This relates to US dollar 1.75 billion senior bonds issued by Vedanta Resources Finance II on June 25 2026 in three tranches at 7 to 7.75 percent maturing 2032, 2034 and 2037. No actual pledge exists yet; the encumbrance arises from bond covenants that restrict promoter group entities from creating further security or disposing of shares. VRL group must retain at least 50.1 percent of VOGL.
