Established in 1965 as India’s first PSU, Bharat Aluminium Company Limited (BALCO) saw a pivotal shift in 2001 when the Government of India divested 51% to Sterlite Industries (India) Limited, now Vedanta Limited. BALCO’s Legal Team, aligned with Vedanta’s Zero Litigation vision, achieved an impressive 104 case closures, valued at approximately INR 1000 crore. Their success not only shields BALCO’s leadership from criminal liability but also underscores their role in enhancing legal compliance and safeguarding the company’s reputation within the industry.
