Vedanta Ltd (VEDL) has released puzzling Q2/23-24 results. The oil & gas segment recorded a huge y-o-y jump in earnings during the quarter, for no apparent reason. In our view, the lack of explanation and attribution for the unexpectedly large earnings jump is very strange, compounded by the timing of the call (on a weekend, when fewer analysts would have attended). It is unclear if VEDL has made an accounting error, or if this was an attempt to put itself in a more positive light to gain better access to capital. This is a crucial period for the group, with parent Vedanta Resources (VRL) facing significant debt maturities in the next two years (USD 3 bn, with the nearest being the USD 1 bn maturing in January 2024). The results have increased our scepticism of the group's financial reporting. We move our recommendation on the VEDLN notes to “Not Recommended” from “Hold”.
