According to a Reuters reports Britain's Cairn Energy Plc is set to vote against Vedanta Ltd's $2.3 billion buyout offer for Cairn India's minority shareholders, the Financial Times said on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the situation.

Vedanta is the largest shareholder in Cairn with a near 60 per cent stake.

Financial institutions had also been resenting the merger of Cairn and Vedanta. While earlier Life Insurance Corporation which holds a near 16 per cent stake in the company had shown its unhappiness, now reports suggest that United India Insurance is also unhappy with the move.
