INDIA's Vedanta will split into five listed companies early next month as part of a restructuring plan aimed at reducing debt, the Financial Times reported on Saturday, citing an interview with chairman Anil Agarwal.

A tribunal cleared the oil-to-metals conglomerate’s plan to split into five listed entities in December.

After the demerger, the company will continue as Vedanta Limited, which will hold its base metals business. Vedanta Aluminium, Talwandi Sabo Power, Vedanta Steel and Iron, and Malco Energy will operate as separate entities.

Agarwal told the Financial Times that the combined market capitalisation of the five companies would be higher than the group’s current $27 billion.

He said a private parent company controlled by him will keep about half of the shares in each of the new entities.

The plan, first proposed in 2023, faced opposition from the government, which said a break-up could affect its ability to recover dues.

Chief Financial Officer Ajay Goel said in an interview with Reuters in January that Vedanta plans to list the four demerged units on Indian exchanges by the middle of May.

OnlyFans has grown into one of the most profitable companies in Britain, despite employing just 47 people

Leonid Radvinsky

OnlyFans made £513m in dividends for its owner before he died, here's the full picture

  • OnlyFans owner Leonid Radvinsky received dividends worth more than £513m (over $700m) before his death in March at the age of 43.
  • The company made $714m in profit before tax last year, a rise of 5 per cent from 2024, despite employing only 47 people.
  • OnlyFans has paid over $30 billion to creators since launch, according to chief executive Keily Blair.

The man behind OnlyFans was paid an extraordinary sum in dividends in the months leading up to his death from cancer earlier this year, newly published company accounts show. Fenix International Ltd, the British company that owns the streaming platform, paid its late owner Leonid Radvinsky more than £513m (around $700m) before he died in March.

According to Fenix International's annual report, the company made $714m in profit before tax last year, up 5 per cent from 2024. What makes the figure especially striking is the size of the company behind it. OnlyFans employs just 47 people, a staggeringly small workforce for a business generating that kind of profit. For comparison, Marks and Spencer, which employs more than 65,000 people, made £671m in profit last year, roughly in the same ballpark as OnlyFans despite a workforce thousands of times larger.
