 Performance Highlights

R&M

„ Refining complexity, higher yields, superior product mix and wide crude slate enabled
RIL to achieve superior GRM

„ GRM at $15.5/bbl for the quarter and at $15/bbl for the full year

„ Strong product cracks in Asia result in high Singapore complex margins

Petrochemicals

„ Strong domestic demand for polyester (up 17%) and polymer (up 15%) support
volume growth

„ Polymer margins remain strong despite high feedstock cost

„ Standalone polyester margins improve significantly – chain margins impacted on

account of significant margin contraction in PX

 Crude Oil Outlook

„ Demand outlook positive, despite fears of slower economic expansion

„ Vigilant OPEC not looking to add production even at all-time high prices

„ New investment and index funds chasing commodities as a hedge

„ Ailing US economy leading to low interest rates, weaker dollar and flight to

commodities. Emerging markets remain strong and partially decoupled

„ Demand from China expected to stay robust

„ Marginal cost of production increasing : ~ 4 million bpd @ 75 $/bbl or more

Outlook for oil price stays firm

www.ril.com 75
 Product Outlook

„ Global demand is expected to grow by a estimated 1.3 MMBPD

– Agency forecasts range between 1.21 – 1.30 MMBPD

– Downward revision by about 0.2 mbd from previous quarter estimates

„ Demand growth is expected to come from Asia Pacific, Middle East, Latin
America and Russia. US demand growth vulnerable to economic slow
down

„ Gasoil demand is expected to be strong, led by growth in Asia and

‘dieselisation’ in Europe

„ Gasoline demand growth is expected to be robust in Asia-Pacific. Potential

downside risk for growth in US due to high inventories, economic slow
down and ethanol substitution
