Vedanta (NYSE: VEDL ) Ltd.'s shares have fallen to a yearly low of Rs 210, marking a significant downturn in the company's stock performance. This drop occurred within seven trading sessions following a downgrade by Moody's (NYSE: MCO ) Investors Service from Caa1 to Caa2, as concerns over the firm's debt continue to grow.

The downgrade by Moody's, a leading provider of credit ratings, research, and risk analysis, has fueled investor concerns about Vedanta's financial health. The Caa2 rating is considered high-risk and suggests that the company may struggle to meet its financial commitments.

The impact of this downgrade was immediate on Vedanta's stock performance, with shares hitting a yearly low in the seventh session post-downgrade. This indicates a bearish sentiment among investors towards the company amid ongoing debt concerns.

Investors will be closely monitoring Vedanta's financial situation and market performance in the coming weeks. The company's ability to address its debt issues will likely play a significant role in restoring investor confidence and stabilizing its share price.
