Swati Chauhan, formerly with Vedanta Group, has founded Vaydha, an investor relations (IR) advisory for small and mid-cap listed companies in India. According to her LinkedIn post and profile, she has been associated with the venture as founder since October 2026 and is based in Gurugram.
In her post, Chauhan said her experience in investor relations at Vedanta had shown her that financial results did not always speak for themselves. Investors also needed to understand the factors driving business performance, how growth was being funded and the company's future direction. She said Vaydha aims to help management teams communicate their investment case more clearly and consistently.
Advisory Services
Vaydha's LinkedIn page lists three service areas. These include core investor relations, covering results releases, earnings call scripts and management question-and-answer preparation; strategic investor relations, covering investor targeting and analyst engagement; and transactions and special situations, including initial public offering (IPO) preparation, demergers and acquisitions.
The company's profile lists five sector focus areas, including metals, mining and resources. It also indicates a team size of two to 10 employees and states that Chauhan personally leads client engagements.
Career At Vedanta
Chauhan spent five years and three months at Vedanta Group, where she held three positions. She served as Deputy CFO of the Anil Agarwal Foundation from April 2024 to May 2026, Deputy Head of Investor Relations from September 2022 to March 2024 and Associate General Manager, Group Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A), from March 2021 to September 2022.
During her tenure, she supported investor communication around a $4 billion debt refinancing and a five-way group demerger.
Before joining Vedanta, Chauhan worked at Apollo LogiSolutions, Delhivery and Wisdom Mart. Vaydha's LinkedIn page also lists Lenovo among her previous professional associations.
