  1. WHY LEADING BROKERAGE FIRMS CONTINUE TO BACK AND BE BULLISH ON VEDANTA?

  2. INTRODUCTION When foreign short-sellers launch manipulative and aggressive attacks, it’s often the Indian companies that find themselves in the spotlight. That’s exactly what happened with a renowned conglomerate, Vedanta Ltd. (NSE:VEDL), which was recently roped in false allegations. American short-seller, Viceroy Research, has made headlines by publishing a controversial report against Vedanta’s parent company, Vedanta Resources Ltd. (VRL). The 87-page report raised several concerns about VRL, raising a question about its ethical business practices. Though such allegations typically rattle investors, in the case of Vedanta, leading global brokerage firms and Indian retail have shown remarkable confidence in Vedanta, continuing to back the company in the toughest times.

  3. WHO IS VICEROY RESEARCH? Viceroy Research LLC is an investigative financial research firm with registration in Delaware, USA. Viceroy is not a SEBI-registered research entity, nor does it operate under the oversight of Indian regulatory bodies. Viceroy has a history of manipulation, falsely targeting several global companies through detailed negative reports, often while holding active short positions in their stocks or bonds. The recent 87-page Viceroy Research report accused VRL of draining VEDL, forcing it to take on more debt and deplete its cash reserves, impairing creditors’ ability to recover their principal. The report further alleged that VEDL promoted capital-intensive projects.

  4. THE BIGGER PICTURE: VEDANTA ISN’T JUST A CONGLOMERATE, IT’S A CONTRIBUTOR TO THE NATION Beyond business, Vedanta’s Chairman, Anil Agarwal, has shown deep commitment to giving back to society and communities. He has pledged to donate 75% of his wealth to social causes, with a keen focus on women and child development, education, and youth empowerment. Anil Agarwal also regularly features on the Hurun India Philanthropy List for his philanthropic contributions. In the 2024 list, he secured the 8th position, having donated ₹181 crores. He was also recognised in the 2020 list, with his contributions increasing by 90% compared to the previous year, placing him among the top five philanthropists in India, according to the Hurun Report.

  5. FINAL THOUGHTS In the end, leading brokerages like JP Morgan and Bank of America continue to support Vedanta because the facts speak louder than speculation. Numbers, not narratives, shape long-term trust. And while foreign short sellers may come and go, strong businesses built on transparency, compliance, and contribution, like Vedanta, will continue to thrive.
