Launched in November, Vedanta XStrat B-School case study competition gives India's talented student community a sneak-peak into the interesting spectrum of business cases in the metals and oil & gas industry, which they are not generally exposed to, at a time when India is emerging as a global manufacturing destination. The students of ISB Hyderabad, Vishnu Kiritee Guttikonda, Akhil Ruttala and Pradeep Bodige, stood out among all participants for their insightful analysis on unlocking greater value and capitalising on emerging opportunities for Vedanta and its group companies.
The case studies spanned interesting themes such as new market development for Oil & Gas business, innovations in ESG excellence, creating greater value for the conglomerate, among others. In the first season, the competition saw participation of over 6,000 students from 30 premier management colleges of India. 20 CXOs from Vedanta's group companies mentored the students as they competed through various rounds.
