Business Jul 13, 2025

Vedanta Ltd has seriously boosted its political donations this year, giving ₹97 crore to the BJP—almost four times what they gave last year.
Their total political funding for FY25 reached ₹157 crore, marking a major jump from last year's ₹97 crore.

Congress sees major drop in funding

While Congress saw its share drop sharply from ₹49 crore to just ₹10 crore, regional parties like Biju Janata Dal and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha got a boost, receiving ₹25 crore and ₹20 crore each.
Vedanta also increased payments to its parent company as part of their business strategy.
