Vedanta's chief executive said the diversified Indian miner received "constructive feedback" from minority shareholders in Cairn India to a sweetened buyout offer, and was hopeful it can clinch the long-delayed deal.
"We have reached out to all shareholders and we have held constructive discussions across the board...We look forward to the vote in the coming weeks," said Vedanta Chief Executive Tom Albanese, speaking in an interview with Reuters on Friday.
