Vedanta

ONE VISION. ONE VEDANTA

Individually, one can take rapid strides, but together we can take
giant leaps. Individually, one can achieve unidimensional growth, but
together we can pursue well-rounded and sustainable development.

At Vedanta, we believe that the outcome of working collectively is
always greater than the sum of its parts. That is why, we rigorously
practise the philosophy of 'working together, growing together'.

The three imperatives that govern our business approach are conversation, collaboration and creation of shared value. Over the

years, we have been meticulously building symbiotic relationships
with our stakeholders. This year was no different. We formed public-
private partnerships to mount high-impact community interventions,
collaborated with community to achieve greater goals, worked hand-
in-hand with our suppliers to enhance their sustainability quotient
and continued to ensure fair value for our employees and
shareholders.

We synergised strengths and interwove all facets of the triple bottom line to create a strong fabric of inclusive growth.
