Vedanta reported Q1 FY27 production numbers (ended June 30, 2026). Zinc India posted best-ever Q1 mined metal output at 268 kt. FACOR hit record ore production of 153 kt, up 41% YoY. Copper India sales were highest Q1 in 8 years at 53 KT. Gamsberg Phase 2 output targeted from July 2026. Ports achieved record discharge volumes of 2,358 kt, up 40% YoY. On the downside, Copper International rod sales fell 51% QoQ to 9 KT due to Strait of Hormuz closure, and Zinc International total mined metal dropped 14% QoQ.
Mixed quarter: strong domestic zinc, copper and port volumes offset by weak international copper and zinc from Hormuz disruption and aging mines.
