Mining Sector

Vedanta Ltd., one of India’s largest diversified natural resources companies, has reported recycling and reusing approximately 85 million cubic metres of water across its operations, marking a significant milestone in its sustainability efforts. The initiative reflects the company’s growing emphasis on responsible resource management amid rising concerns about industrial water consumption and environmental impact. By investing in advanced water treatment technologies and circular resource practices, Vedanta aims to reduce freshwater dependency while maintaining operational efficiency.

Indian mining and natural resources giant Vedanta Limited has called for significant policy reforms in the country’s mining sector, warning that regulatory and operational challenges could hinder long-term resource development. The company argues that modernizing mining regulations, improving approval timelines, and strengthening infrastructure support are essential to sustaining investment and production growth. Industry observers note that the sector remains critical to India’s economic expansion, supplying key raw materials to energy, infrastructure, and manufacturing industries.
