History[edit]

1960 1980[edit]
The company was co-founded by Dhirubhai Ambani and his cousin Champaklal Damani in 1960s as Reliance
Commercial Corporation. In 1965, the partnership was ended and Dhirubhai continued the polyester business
of the firm.[8] In 1966, Reliance Textiles Industries Pvt Ltd was incorporated in Maharashtra. It established
a synthetic fabrics mill in the same year at Naroda in Gujarat.[9] In 1975, company expanded its business into
textiles, with "Vimal" becoming its major brand in later years. The company held its Initial public offering (IPO)
in 1977.[10] The issue was over-subscribed by seven times.[11] In 1979, a textiles company Sidhpur Mills was
amalgamated with the company.[12] In 1980, the company expanded its polyster yarn business by setting up a
Polyester Filament Yarn Plant in Raigad, Maharashtra with financial and technical collaboration with E. I. du
Pont de Nemours & Co., USA.[9]

1981 2000[edit]
In 1985, the name of the company was changed from Reliance Textiles Industries Ltd. to Reliance Industries
Ltd.[9] During the years 1985 to 1992, the company expanded its installed capacity for producing polyster yarn
by over 145,000 tonnes per annum.[9] The Hazira petrochemical plant was commissioned in 199192.[13] In
1993, Reliance turned to the overseas capital markets for funds through a global depositary issue of Reliance
Petroleum. In 1996, it became the first private sector company in India to be rated by international credit rating
agencies. S&P rated BB+, stable outlook, constrained by the sovereign ceiling. Moody's rated Baa3,
Investment grade, constrained by the sovereign ceiling.[14] In the year 199596, the company entered
the telecom industry through a joint venture with NYNEX, USA and promoted Reliance Telecom Private Limited
in India.[13]In 199899, RIL introduced packaged LPG in 15 kg cylinders under the brand name Reliance Gas.
[13]

During 19982000, the company completed setup of integrated petrochemical complex at Jamnagar in

Gujarat.[13]

2001 present
In 2001, Reliance Industries Ltd. and Reliance Petroleum Ltd. became India's two largest companies in terms
of all major financial parameters.[15] In 200102, Reliance Petroleum was merged with Reliance Industries. [10] In
2002, Reliance announced India's biggest gas discovery (at the Krishna Godavari basin) in nearly three
decades and one of the largest gas discoveries in the world during 2002. The in-place volume of natural gas
was in excess of 7 trillion cubic feet, equivalent to about 1.2 billion barrels of crude oil. This was the first ever
discovery by an Indian private sector company.[10][16] In 200203, RIL purchased a majority stake in Indian
Petrochemicals Corporation Ltd. (IPCL), India's second largest petrochemicals company, from Government of
India.[17] IPCL was later merged with RIL in 2008.[18][19] In the years 2005 and 2006, the company reorganized its
business by demerging its investments in power generation and distribution, financial services and
telecommunication services into four separate entities. [20] In 2006, Reliance entered the organised retail market
in India[21] with the launch of its retail store format under the brand name of 'Reliance Fresh'. [22][23] By the end of
2008, Reliance retail had close to 600 stores across 57 cities in India. [10] In November 2009, Reliance Industries
issued 1:1 bonus shares to its shareholders. In 2010, Reliance entered Broadband services market with
acquisition of Infotel Broadband Services Limited, which was the only successful bidder for pan-India fourthgeneration (4G) spectrum auction held by Government of India. [24][25] In the same year, Reliance
and BP announced a partnership in the oil and gas business. BP took a 30 per cent stake in 23 oil and gas
production sharing contracts that Reliance operates in India, including the KG-D6 block for $7.2 billion.
[26]

Reliance also formed a 50:50 joint venture with BP for sourcing and marketing of gas in India. [27] In 2012, RIL

set up a joint venture with Russian Company Sibur for setting up a Butyl rubber plant in Jamnagar, Gujarat.
The plant is scheduled to be operational in 2015[28] Presently, Vivek Lall is the President and CEO of New
Ventures in the Chairmans Office at Reliance Industries Limited. [29]

Controversies[edit]

De-merger of RIL in 200506[edit]


The Ambani family holds around 45% of the shares in RIL. [73] Since its inception the company was managed by
its founder and chairman Dhirubhai Ambani. After suffering a heart attack in 1986, he handed over the daily
operations of the company to his sons Mukesh Ambani and Anil Ambani. After the death of Dhirubhai Ambani in
2002, the management of the company was taken up by both the brothers. In November 2004, Mukesh
Ambani, in an interview, admitted to having differences with his brother Anil over 'ownership issues'. [74] He also
said that the differences "are in the private domain". The share prices of RIL were impacted by some margin
when this news broke out. In 2005, after a bitter public feud between the brothers over the control of the
Reliance empire, mother Kokilaben intervened to broker a deal splitting the RIL group business into the two

parts.[75] In October 2005, the split of Reliance Group was formalized. Mukesh Ambani got Reliance Industries
and IPCL. Younger brother Anil Ambani received telecom, power, entertainment and financial services business
of the group. The Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group includes Reliance Communications, Reliance Infrastructure,
Reliance Capital, Reliance Natural Resources and Reliance Power.[76][77]
The division of Reliance group business between the two brothers also resulted in de-merger of 4 businesses
from RIL.[78][79] These businesses immediately became part of Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group. The existing
shareholders in RIL, both the promoter group and non-promoters, received shares in the de-merged
companies.[20]

RIL Plane grounded[edit]


Business jet owned by Reliance Industries (RIL) was grounded by The Directorate General of Civil Aviation
(DGCA) on 22 March 2014 during a surprise inspection, for carrying expired safety equipment on-board and
also suspended its pilot for flying without a licence.[80]

ONGC Controversy[edit]
In May 2014, ONGC moved to Delhi High Court accusing RIL of pilferage of 18 billion cubic metres from its
gas-producing block in the Krishna Godavari basin.[81] Subsequently, the two companies agreed to form an
independent expert panel to probe any pilferage.[82]

Petition against Reliance Jio[edit]


A PIL filed in the Supreme Court by an NGO Centre for Public Interest Litigation, through Prashant Bhushan,
challenged the grant of pan-India licence to RJIL by the Government of India. The PIL alleged that RJIL was
allowed to provide voice telephony along with its 4G data service, by paying an additional fees of just 165.8
crore(US$26 million) which was arbitrary and unreasonable, and contributed to a loss of 2284.2
crore (US$360 million) to the exchequer.[83][84]
The CAG in its draft report alleged rigging of the auction mechanism, whereby an unknown ISP, Infotel
Broadband Services Pvt Ltd, acquired the spectrum by bidding 5000 times its net worth, after which the
company was sold to Reliance Industries within minutes of acquiring license. [85]

Reliance Petroleum Limited was set up by Reliance Industries Limited (RIL), one of India's largest
private sector companies based in Ahmedabad. Currently, RPL amalgamated with RIL, and has
interests in the downstream oil business. RPL also benefits from a strategic alliance with Chevron
India Holdings Pte Limited, Singapore, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chevron CorporationUSA
(Chevron), which currently holds a 5% equity stake in the Company.[2]

Jamnagar Refinery[edit]
With an annual crude processing capacity of 580,000 barrels (92,000 m3) per stream day (BPSD),
RPL will be the sixth largest refinery in the world. It will have a complexity of 14.0, using the Nelson

Complexity Index, ranking it one of the highest in the sector. The polypropylene plant will have a
capacity to produce 0.9 million metric tonnes per annum.[citation needed]
The refinery project is being implemented at a capital cost of Rs 270,000 million being funded
through a mix of equity and debt. This represents a capital cost of less than US$10,000 per barrel
per day and compares very favourably with the average capital cost of new refineries announced in
recent years.[citation needed] The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates the average capital cost of
new refinery in the OECD nations to be in the region of US$15,000 to 20,000 per barrel per day.[citation
needed]
The low capital cost of RPL becomes even more attractive when adjusted for high complexity of
the refinery.

Reliance Solar
Reliance Solar, the solar energy subsidiary of Reliance, was established to produce and retail solar energy

Relicord is an initiative by the Reliance Industries in the field of biotechnological advancement. It is


established as a part of the subsidiary of Reliance Industries, Reliance Life Sciences. ReliCord is the
first to have a registered cord blood bank and repository in India as well as the entire region of South
East Asia. In terms of Biotechnology India is currently amongst the top five countries in the Asia
Pacific region. Reliance Life Sciences and ReliCord are an endeavour by the Reliance Group to tap
into this emerging market that has great potential.

About Relicord[edit]
ReliCord has already stored over 3,500 cord blood samples at its repository. It conforms to the AABB and
USFDA guidelines and has an infrastructure to collect cord blood from any corner of the country through its
collection centres. ReliCord offers public as well as private banking and is the only facility in India that offers
stem cell research for current and future applications. The cord blood samples are stored at the Dhirubhai
Ambani Life Sciences Centre (DALC) campus in Navi Mumbai. The repository is completely automated and
uses the most advanced technology under the supervision of a host of experienced scientists.

Social view[edit]
ReliCord runs three programs for the collection of cord blood: ReliCord S, ReliCord A and ReliCord M. ReliCord
S and ReliCord A offer stem cell enriched cord blood repository services as well as stem cell enriched cord
blood for transplantation to address haematological disorders. ReliCord S is a program for sibling donors. This
program is for a mother or a family that wants to process and bank the umbilical cord blood stem cells from the
present pregnancy. Only family members waiting for transplantation can utilize this program. Under ReliCord S
the stored cord blood stem cells can be used for haematopoetic stem cell transplantation for family members
suffering from diseases such asthalassemia or leukemia. The ReliCord S and A program not only stores the
stem cells but also tests and processes the same along with delivering the stem cells to the transplant site as
per the direction received from the transplant physician.
[1]

Research[edit]
ReliCord A is meant for patients who require transplants with grafts from the repository. Under this program a
patient first has to obtain his HLA profile to facilitate the availability of the graft. HLA profiling is also offered by
Reliance Life Sciences. ReliCord M offers umbilical cord banking and cord tissue derived mesenchymal stem
cells banking services as a combined storage service for parents-to-be. The Relicord M program offers
umbilical cord collection, processing of the cord, culturing of mesenchymal stem cells and storage of cord
tissue with 15 million stem cells. Before storage the cord blood is tested for HIV, HBV, HCV and CMV. The
blood is also typed for Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) Class 1 and 2 antigens before processing. The stem
cell enriched cord blood is then cryo-preserved at the repository at a temperature of minus 196 degrees
Celsius. Stem cell enriched cord blood can be used as a therapy for the treatment of thalassemia, leukemia,
brain tumor, meuroblastoma and sickle cell anaemia and can be used as an adjunct therapy for chemotherapy.

making it the biggest inward stake buy in the mutual fund industry. The deals were lauded in the Indian financial
services sector in India by analysts. Value Research, a major financial research firm lauded this strategic stake
sale by Reliance Capital to Nippon Life Insurance in two of its businesses. [34][35][36]
Industry players also believe that such high value and credible deals struck by Reliance Capital has helped
increase the valuations of the Indian financial services space in the prolonged global economic slowdown and
after the Lehman triggered financial crisis.[37]
Reports indicate that Reliance Capital is also planning to sell 26% stake in its general insurance business Reliance General Insurance - at an appropriate time.[38] India's leading financial daily Economic Times wrote,
since Reliance General Insurance is one of the leading players, the proposed stake sale is expected to
generate handsome capital gains for Reliance Capital. The de-leveraging of the balance sheet and ongoing

restructuring should help Reliance Capital conserve capital and generate better return ratios. A leaner company
will also mean that it will be able to grow faster when the business environment turns favourable once again. [39]
After the recent announcement by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley to increase investment limit for foreigners in
Indian insurance sector to 49%, Espirito Santo said Reliance Capital is going to benefit the most from the
decision due to its successful presence in both life and general insurance and ability draw appropriate valuation
from foreign partners due to its diversified strength and last mile reach in financial services sector in India. [40]
Reliance Capital in July announced the merger of its global film and media services business with Prime Focus
to create an entity with a combined turnover of over Rs 1,800 crore. [41]

Reliance Power Limited is part of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group. It was established to
develop, construct and operate power projects in the Indian and international markets. Reliance
Energy Limited, an Indian private sector power utility company and the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group
promote Reliance Power.
With its subsidiaries, it is developing 13 medium and large-sized power projects with a combined
planned installed capacity of 33,480 MW.
Reliance Natural Resources merged with Reliance Power in 2010, shortly after its initial public
offering.[1] In July 2014, Reliance Power acquired the entire 1,800 MW hydropower portfolio
of Jaiprakash Associates for over 10,000 crore.[2]

Overview[edit]
The company was incorporated in January 1995 as Bawana Power Private Limited and changed its name to
Reliance Delhi Power Private Limited in February 1995. Its name was changed to Reliance Energy Generation
Limited in March 2004, and finally to Reliance Power Limited in July 2007. [3]
The company website identifies project sites broadly to be located in western India (12,220 MW), northern
India (9,080 MW) and northeastern India (4,220 MW) and southern India (4,000 MW). They include six coalfired projects (14,620 MW) to be fuelled by reserves from captive mines and supplies from India and abroad,
two gas-fired projects (10,280 MW) to be fuelled primarily by reserves from the Krishna Godavari basin (the
"KG Basin") off the east coast of India, and four hydroelectric projects (3,300 MW), three of them in Arunachal
Pradesh and one in Uttarakhand.

Order to Shanghai Electric[edit]


Anil Dhirubhai Ambani placed a single order for $8.3 billion with Shanghai Electric Group Company (SEC) for
buying 36 coal-fired thermal power generation units, spare parts and related services over a 10-year period.
This took the total deal size between Reliance Power and the Chinese power equipment maker over the past
couple of years to $10 billion, making it the largest contract between a private Indian company and a
government-owned Chinese firm.
While Reliance Power has also given a $2.2 billion deal to US-based General Electric, the agreement signed
with SEC is on a different plane. The Chinese company will supply boiler, turbine and generator packages for
up to 30,000 MW capacity of coal-based power at six plants, including the 4000 MW ultra mega power project
in Krishnapatnam, the 3960 MW Project in Chitrangi and the 4000 MW Power Project in Tilaiya.

Loans from Exim bank[edit]


Reliance Power Ltd. signed an agreement with the US Export-Import Bank in 2010 for a $5 billion loan to
finance power projects. The loan will finance 900 megawatts of renewable technologies such as solar and wind
energy,[6] as well as up to 8000 MW of gas-based power generation technology, the Indian company said in a
statement. This $5 billion agreement is in addition to the $917 million already approved by the Ex-Im Bank for
Reliance Power's coal-fired power plant at Sasan in central India.
The agreement will allow Reliance Power access products and services at competitive rates and help create
manufacturing and services jobs in the US. The loan will also enable quicker access to the bank's long-term

dollar loans. Reliance Power signed a pact with the US's General Electric Co. (GE) worth INR100 billion ($2.2
billion) to implement a 2400 MW power plant. The plant will be located in the southern Indian town
of Samalkot and the pact was signed during the visit of President Barack Obama. [7]

Initial public offering and controversies[edit]


On 15 January 2008, the company attracted $27.5 billion of bids on the first day of its initial public
offering (IPO), equivalent to 10.5 times the stock on offer, thereby, creating India's IPO record. The upper cut off
price for the bid was Rs. 450[8] The proposed IPO was to fund the development of its six power projects across
the country whose completion dates are scheduled from December 2009 to March 2014. [9]
A media report suggested that, if the companys stock price were to cross Rs. 650700, Anil Ambani would go
past L. N. Mittal to become the richest Indian.[10] "It is a reflection of world community in the future of India...
Investors seem to be confident in the future of Indian economy," Indian Finance Minister, P. Chidambaram told
the media about the IPO.[11]
The Securities and Exchange Board of India, which is an organisation that regulates the activity in
the Indian stock market, placed some restrictions based on a complaint about the formulation of the IPO. [12] The
complaint also resulted in a public interest litigation being filed against the company. However, the Supreme
Court of India passed a ruling that the IPO would go ahead even if any order is passed by any Indian court
against the venture.[13]
Reliance Power debuted on the stock markets on 11 February 2008. However, the markets were still reeling
after the January 2008 stock market volatility, and concerns over speculation that the issue was overpriced
sent the stock plummeting soon after its listing. At the end of the day, the stock traded at a value that was 17
per cent lower than its issue price of Rs. 450 . [14] Investors who were betting on the stock reaching 1.5 or even
twice its issue price lost a fortune in the process. On 25 February, in an effort to mitigate investor losses,
Reliance Power decided to issue 3 bonus shares for every 5 shares held. [15]

Carbon credits[edit]
On 2 February 2011 United Nations registered Reliance Power's Sasan Power Plant to be eligible for earning
carbon credits followed by Krishnapatanm Ultra Mega Power Project and Tilaiya Ultra Mega Power Projects.
United Nations issues carbon credits to companies which employs advanced technologies in reducing carbon
emission . These carbon credits can then be sold to those companies that are emitting more than their statutory
emission limits.

2012, the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai proposed constructing a 35 km coastal road
between Nariman Point andKandivali.[13]
Reliance protested against this project as it claimed it would incur losses. [14] Subsequently, the Government of
Maharashtra appointed a committee to look into the matter.[15]Later, it was reported that the MSRDC was likely
to scrap the deal with Reliance due to the latter not having started construction two years after signing the
agreement.[16]Afterwards, it was announced that the deal was scrapped as the mediation report stated that it
was impossible to build.[17]

Dadri & Sasan Power Project[edit]


Reliance Infrastructure is constructing a 5600 MW gas based Thermal Power Plant in the district of Dadri in the
northern state of Uttar Pradesh. It is planned to be the single largest grassroot gas-fired generation plant in the
world and solve much of the power supply shortages of northern India. The ADAG group was earlier in a bitter
fight withMukesh Ambani controlled Reliance Industries.[23] On 15 June 2009 the Mumbai High Court ruled in
favour of Reliance Natural Gas Limited.
Sasan UMPP along with the coal mine is the largest integrated coal-cum-power plant in the World. It is India's
first domestic coal-based UMPP. With an estimated cost of around Rs 20,000 Crores (US$ 4 billion), this is the
single largest investment happened across any industry in India till date. Power generated from the project
would be sold to 14 procurers in seven states of India at a levelized tariff. This UMPP will use super critical
technology which results in higher operating efficiency and also reduces the carbon emissions thereby making
it an environment friendly technology. It is expected to be fully operational in 2016.
