Vedanta Limited has disclosed that its ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) Ratings by ESG Risk Assessments and Insights Limited (ESGRisk.ai) have been downgraded from 67 (Strong Category) to 57 (Adequate Category). The company clarified that it has not engaged ESGRisk.ai for the evaluation and that the ratings were issued independently by the SEBI-registered ESG Rating Provider. The notification was received via BSE email on April 27, 2026, and the updated ratings have been published on the ESGRisk.ai website.
The downgrade in ESG rating from Strong to Adequate may negatively impact sentiment among ESG-focused investors and could attract scrutiny on the company's ESG practices. The company's statement distancing itself from the rating provider adds an unusual dimension to this disclosure.
