Hindustan Zinc targets doubling output by 2030 and hints at reviving its stalled demerger

Published on 24 April 2026

Government blocked the demerger over minority shareholder concerns

Hindustan Zinc says it aims to double output by 2030 and may revisit a demerger plan first proposed in 2023. That proposal was opposed by the Government of India, which holds a 27.92% stake, citing potential disadvantages for minority shareholders. The company’s chair suggested the issue could resurface after the demerger related to Vedanta is completed, without committing to a timeline.
