Independent Auditor's Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI
(Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended
Review Report to
The Board of Directors
Vedanta Limited
1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of

Vedanta Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (the Company and its subsidiaries together
referred to as "the Group") , its associates, joint ventures and joint operations for the quarter ended
September 30, 2022 and year to date from April O1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 (the "Statement")
attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33
of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 , as amended (the
"Listing Regulations").
2. The Company's Management is responsible for the preparation of the Statement in accordance with
the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS
34) "Interim Financial Reporting" prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as
amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations . The Statement
has been approved by the Company's Board of Directors . Our responsibility is to express a
conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
3. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review
Engagements (SRE) 2410, ''Review oflnterim Financial Infonnation Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This standard
requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the
Statement is free of material misstatement. A review of inte1irn financial infom1ation consists of
making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and
applying analytical and other review procedures . A review is substantially less in scope than an
audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to
obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in
an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
We also perfo1111ed procedures in accordance with the Circular No. ClR/CFD/CMDl/44/2019 dated
March 29, 2019 issued by the Securities and Exchange Boa~d of India under Regulation 33(8) of
the Listing Regulations, to the extent applicable.
4. The Statement includes the results of the entities as mentioned in Annexure- I
5. Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above and based
on the consideration of the review reports of other auditors refeITed to in paragraph 6 and 8 below,
nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement,
prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid
Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS') specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013,
as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, has not disclosed the infom1ation required to be disclosed in tenns of the Listing
Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material
misstatement.

* The Government of India ("Gol") vide its notification dated 30 June 2022 levied Special Additional Excise Duty (' SAED ' ) on production of crude oil, i.e., cess on windfall
gain triggered by increase in crude oil prices which is effective from OI July 2022. The consequential net impact of the said duty on the quarterly results has been presented a
an exceptional item.
4 The Company operates an oil and gas production facility in Rajasthan under a Production Sharing Contract ("PSC"). The Go! accorded its approval for extension of the PSC
for the RJ Block for a period of IO years till 14 May 2030, under the Pre-NELP Extension policy as ·per notification dated 07 April 2017 ("Pre-NELP Policy"), vide its Jette
dated 26 October 2018, subject to fulfilment of certain conditions.
The management believes that the Company is eligible for extension of the PSC on same terms and challenged the applicability of above-mentioned policy. The Company' s
petition was allowed by Single Bench, however was overturned by Division Bench in appeal filed by Go!. The Company has filed an appeal against the order of Division
Bench before the Supreme court. However, the Company has been paying additional I 0% profit petroleum to the Government as per the conditions of extension .
One of the conditions for extension relates to notification of certain audit exceptions raised for FY 2016-17 as per PSC provisions and provides for payment of amounts, if
such audit exceptions result into any creation of liability.
Director General of Hydrocarbons (" DG H") has further updated its demand on account of audit exceptions vide letter dated 06 September 2022 for period up to 14 May
2020 for total amount of< 9,474 Crore (US$ I , 162 million) and applicable interest thereon relating to the share of the Company and one of its subsidiaries.
The Company has disputed the aforesaid demand and the other audit exceptions, notified till date, as in the Company's view the audit notings are not in accordance with the
PSC and are entirely unsustainable. Further, as per PSC provisions, disputed notings do not prevail and accordingly do not result in creation of any liability. The Company
believes it has reasonable grounds to defend itself which are supported by independent legal opinions. In accordance with PSC terms, the Company had commenced arbitration
proceedings. The final hearing and arguments were concluded in September 2022 . Post hearing briefs would be filed by the parties on 11 November 2022 .
For reasons aforesaid, the Company is not expecting any material liability to devolve on account of these matters.
Pursuant to GOI ' s approval for extension vide letter dated 26 October 2018 , the parties have now executed the addendum for PSC extension for 10 years from 15 May 2020
to 14 May 2030 on 27 October 2022 .
5 The Company has a copper smelter plant in Tuticorin. The Company' s application for renewal of Consent to Operate ("CTO") for the plant was rejected by the Tamil Nadu
Pollution Control Board ("TNPCB") in April 20 I 8. Subsequently, the Government of Tamil Nadu issued directions to close and seal the existing copper smelter plant
permanently. The Principal Bench of National Green Tribunal ("NGT") ruled in favour of the Company but its order was set aside by the Supreme Court vide its judgment
dated 18 February 2019, on the sole basis of maintainability. The Company had filed a writ petition before the Madras High Court challenging various orders passed against
the Company. On 18 August 2020 , the Madras High Court dismissed the writ petitions filed by the Company, which has been challenged by the Company in the Supreme
Court while also seeking interim relief to access the plant for care and maintenance. The hearing on care and maintenance could not be listed at the Supreme Court. Instead,
the matter is now being heard on merits.
The Company was also in the process of expanding its capacities at an adjacent site ("Expansion Project"). The High Court of Madras, in a Public Interest Litigation, held that
the application for renewal of the Environmental Clearance ("EC") for the Expansion Project shall be processed after a mandatory public hearing and in the interim, ordered
the Company to cease construction and all other activities on the site with immediate effect. In the meanwhile, State Industries Promotion Corporation of Tamil Nadu
("SfPCOT") cancelled the land allotted for the Expansion Project, which was later stayed by the Madras High Court. Further, TNPCB issued an order directing the withdrawal
of the Consent to Establish ("CTE") which was valid till 3 I March 2023. The Company has also appealed this action before the TNPCB Appellate Authority and the matter is
pending for adjudication and the matter is now being heard on merits. As per the Company's assessment, it is in compliance with the applicable regulations and hence there is
no impact on the carrying value of the assets.
6 On 21 July 2022, the Company acquired Athena Chhattisgarh Power Limited ("ACPL") under the liquidation proceedings of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 for a
consideration on 565 Crore. ACPL is building a 1,200 MW (600 MW X 2) coal-based power plant located at Jhanjgir Champa district, Chhattisgarh. The plant is expected to
fulfill the power requirements for the Company' s aluminium business. On consolidation, the consideration paid for acquisition of ACPL represents mainly Capital work in
progress.
7 The Company had filed a Scheme of Arrangement ("Scheme") for its capital reorganization, whereby the balance of the General Reserves of~ 12,587 Crore as at 31 March
2022 is proposed to be transferred to Retained Earnings. Pursuant to the Order ofHon'ble National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench, a meeting of the shareholders of
the Company was held on 1 I October 2022, where the matter was approved with requisite majority. The Scheme is subject to completion of further compliances as may be
required under Section 230 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.

Independent Auditor's Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited Standalone
Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 and 52 of the SEBI (Listing
Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended
Review Report to
The Board of Directors
Vedanta Limited
1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of unaudited standalone financial results of

Vedanta Limited (the "Company") for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and year to date
from April 0 I, 2022 to September 30, 2022 (the "Statement") attached herewith, being
submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 and 52 of the SEBI
(Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the
"Listing Regulations") .
2. The Company's Management is responsible for the preparation of the Statement in accordance
with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34,
(Ind AS 34) "Interim Financial Repo1iing" prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act,

generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 and 52 of the Listing

3. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review

This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to
whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review of interim financial
infonnation consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters, and applying ·analytical and other review procedures. A review is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing
and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all
significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit
opimon.
4. Based on our review conducted as above , nothing has come to our attention that causes us to
believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the recognition and
measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standards (' Ind AS')
specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules
issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed
the information required to be disclosed in te1111s of the Listing Regulations , including the
manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

*The Government of India ("GoI") vide its notification dated 30 June 2022 levied Special Additional Excise Duty ('SAED') on
production of crude oil, i.e., cess on windfall gain triggered by increase in crude oil prices which is effective from 0 l July 2022. The
consequential net impact of the said duty on the quarterly results has been presented as an exceptional item.
4 The Company has a copper smelter plant in Tuticorin. The Company's application for renewal of Consent to Operate ("CTO") for the
plant was rejected by the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board ("TNPCB") in April 2018. Subsequently, the Government of Tamil
Nadu issued directions to close and seal the existing copper smelter plant permanently. The Principal Bench of National Green
Tribunal ("NGT") ruled in favour of the Company but its order was set aside by the Supreme Court vide its judgment dated 18
February 2019, on the sole basis of maintainability. The Company had filed a writ petition before the Madras High Court challenging
various orders passed against the Company. On 18 August 2020, the Madras High Court dismissed the writ petitions filed by the
Company, which has been challenged by the Company in the Supreme Court while also seeking interim relief to access the plant for
care and maintenance. The hearing on care and maintenance could not be listed at the Supreme Court. Instead, the matter is now being
heard on merits.
The Company was also in the process of expanding its capacities at an adjacent site ("Expansion Project"). The High Court of Madras,
in a Public Interest Litigation, held that the application for renewal of the Environmental Clearance ("EC") for the Expansion Project
shall be processed after a mandatory public hearing and in the interim, ordered the Company to cease construction and all other
activities on the site with immediate effect. In the meanwhile, State Industries Promotion Corporation of Tamil Nadu ("SIPCOT")
cancelled the land allotted for the Expansion Project, which was later stayed by the Madras High Court. Further, TNPCB issued an
order directing the withdrawal of the Consent to Establish ("CTE") which was valid till 31 March 2023. The Company has also
appealed this action before the TNPCB Appellate Authority and the matter is pending for adjudication and the matter is now being
heard on merits. As per the Company's assessment, it is in compliance with the applicable regulations and hence there is no impact on
the carrying value of the assets.
5 The Company operates an oil and gas production facility in Rajasthan under a Production Sharing Contract ("PSC"). The GoT accorded
its approval for extension of the PSC for the RJ Block for a period of IO years till 14 May 2030, under the Pre-NELP Extension pol icy
as per notification dated 07 April 2017 ("Pre-NELP Policy"), vide its letter dated 26 October 2018, subject to fulfilment of certain
conditions .
The management believes that the Company is eligible for extension of the PSC on same terms and challenged the applicability of
above-mentioned policy. The Company's petition was allowed by Single Bench, however was overturned by Division Bench in appeal
filed by GoT. The Company has filed an appeal against the order of Division Bench before the Supreme court. However, the Company
has been paying additional I 0% profit petroleum to the Government as per the conditions of extension.
One of the conditions for extension relates to notification of certain audit exceptions raised for FY 2016-17 as per PSC provisions and
provides for payment of amounts, if such audit exceptions result into any creation of liability.
Director General of Hydrocarbons ("DGH") has further updated its demand on account of audit exceptions vide letter dated 06
September 2022 for period up to 14 May 2020 for total amount of { 9,474 Crore (US$ I , 162 million) and applicable interest thereon
relating to the share of the Company and one of its subsidiaries.
The Company has disputed the aforesaid demand and the other audit exceptions, notified till date, as in the Company' s view the audit
notings are not in accordance with the PSC and are entirely unsustainable. Further, as per PSC provisions, disputed notings do not
prevail and accordingly do not result in creation of any liability. The Company believes it has reasonable grounds to defend itself
which are supported by independent legal opinions. In accordance with PSC terms, the Company had commenced arbitration
proceedings . The final hearing and arguments were concluded in September 2022 . Post hearing briefs would be filed by the parties on
11 November 2022.
For reasons aforesaid, the Company is not expecting any material liability to devolve on account of these matters.
Pursuant to GOI's approval for extension vide letter dated 26 October 2018, the parties have now executed the addendum for PSC
extension for IO years from 15 May 2020 to 14 May 2030 on 27 October 2022.
6 On 21 July 2022, the Company acquired Athena Chhattisgarh Power Limited ("ACPL") under the liquidation proceedings of the
Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 for a consideration of { 565 Crore, pending receipt of share certificate . ACPL is building a
1,200 MW (600 MW X 2) coal-based power plant located at Jhanjgir Champa district, Chhattisgarh. The plant is expected to fulfill the
power requirements for the Company ' s aluminium business .
