30% of profits

Vedanta Ltd plans to change its dividend policy, moving from a fixed payout of at least 30% of profits to a more flexible approach. The board will now have discretion over the dividend amount, which may impact investor sentiment as the company splits into five separate entities. This shift introduces less predictability in returns but aims to maintain strong payouts.
