At a time when the ministry of petroleum and natural g4as is exploring ways to start home delivery of petroleum products such as diesel and petrol, Reliance Industries (RIL) is looking to enter the segment as well. According to three people close to development who requested not to be named, RIL has applied for a licence to home-deliver motor fuel to the Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation (PESO). However, though the company has been allowed to use bowsers to transport fuel to its mobile phone towers, it has not been granted licence for fuel home delivery as of now. Reliance operates a mobile phone network under the brand Jio.

Tata Consultancy Services on Wednesday surpassed Reliance Industries to reclaim the status of the country's most valued firm by market valuation.

At close of trade today, the market capitalisation (m- cap) of TCS stood at Rs 4,63,287.02 crore, which was Rs 8,555.55 crore more than RIL's Rs 4,54,731.47 crore valuation.

MUMBAI: Billionaire Mukesh Ambani has left his salary unchanged at Rs 15 crore for the ninth consecutive year, while remuneration of most other whole-time directors of the company has increased.

Ambani, who is the richest Indian, will still take home a hefty dividend payment for his shareholding in the energy conglomerate.

Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) plans to raise Rs 25,000 crore through privately placed debentures as the energy-to-retail conglomerate seeks to replace existing high-cost borrowings as well as build a war chest for its aggressive expansion strategy in the telecom space.

The Mukesh Ambani-led firm sought shareholders' nod to issue redeemable non-convertible debentures (NCDs) on private placement.

After a gap of 2-months, Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) regained the status of the country's most valued firm on Friday, overtaking Tata Group's TCS in terms of market valuation.

At close of trade, RIL commanded a market capitalisation (m-cap) of Rs 4,66,599.69 crore, which was Rs 1,450.62 crore more than TCS' Rs 4,65,149.07 crore valuation.

Almost a week after the big-bang announcement by Reliance Industries (RIL) and BP Plc to invest Rs 40,000 crore in the Krishna Godavari Basin field, a senior BP official said that the company has withdrawn its arbitration with the government related to gas prices.

This has triggered expectations that the government could now allow the oil majors to charge a higher price for gas from KG-D6. While the price for domestic natural gas for the period of April 1 to September 30 has been kept at $2.50 per million metric British thermal unit (mmbtu), for deepwater blocks, a higher price of $5.56 per mmbtu is allowed. However, RIL and its partners were denied this price due to arbitration.

Reliance Industries’ planned USD 6 billion investment to monetise gas finds in KG-D6 block will increase its exposure to the extremely challenging Indian gas business that is fraught with delays and retrospective changes in regulation, Moody’s Investor Service said today. Reliance Industries(RIL) and its partner BP Plc of the UK last week announced that they are moving ahead with development of three fields in the KG-D6 block off the east coast of India. Investment of Rs 40,000 crore in the development of the fields is expected to produce 30-35 million cubic meters of gas a day (mmscmd) by the year 2020-2022.

Reliance Industries (RIL) was up 1.9% at Rs 1,415, trading higher for the fourth straight trading sessions on the BSE.

Since Jun 14, in past four trading days, the stock has outperformed the market by gaining 8% as compared to 0.33% rise in the S&P BSE Sensex.

Reliance Industries shares jumped ahead of a joint address later today by company chairman Mukesh Ambani and BP Plc’s group chief executive Bob Dudley. Reliance shares were trading up 2.2% at Rs 1,386 after rising to the day’s high of Rs 1,394.25. The subject of the address scheduled for 5.30 pm today is not immediately known. Meanwhile, the benchmark BSE Sensex was down 0.26% at 31,076.24 points.

Mumbai: Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) is targeting doubling its market share in fuel retail in the next two-three years as it expands the business, two people aware of the plan said. RIL currently has a 5% share of India’s fuel retail market.

“RIL is working on various plans to improve its market share in the fuel retailing segment. It is looking at all the markets it is not currently represented in, and these are areas other than urban markets,” said one of the two officials cited above. This person spoke on condition of anonymity as he is not authorized to speak to the media.
