2)    Hind Zinc (HZL), its 65% subsidiary, may declare an interim dividend of Rs. 20 or so, with Q4 numbers,which will see Vedanta receiving Rs.5,500 crores divedend. To claim exemption on this, under section 80M of Income tax Act, Vedanta may decalre a dividend of Rs. 15 per share.
3)    Govt may divest its 29.5% stake in HZL in FY 22, with 19.5% as OFS and 10% to be offered and acquired by Vedanta. This will raise Vedanta stake to 75% in HZL.
