What the record says.
Reliance Industries reported a strong Q1 FY26 with consolidated EBITDA of INR 58,000 crore, up 36% YoY, driven by robust performance across digital services (Jio EBITDA +24% YoY), retail (EBITDA +13% YoY), and O2C (EBITDA +10.8% YoY). Jio added 9.9 million subscribers and crossed 210 million 5G users, while retail saw 11% revenue growth despite a seasonally weak quarter. The company highlighted its proprietary UBR technology for home broadband, targeting 100 million connected premises, and provided a detailed update on its new energy gigafactories, with module manufacturing already operational and cell production expected in the next quarter. Management reiterated confidence in doubling the company's value by the end of the golden decade. Key risks include potential sanctions on Russian crude impacting feedstock costs and a slowdown in consumer electronics demand due to early monsoons.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management reiterated confidence in doubling the company's value by the end of the golden decade, as stated by the Chairman in 2022 and 2024 AGM.
- The entire new energy ecosystem, including manufacturing and generation, will be operationalized on a full-scale basis in the next four to six quarters.
- Chairman's vision of doubling retail business every three to four years remains on track, with acceleration expected in coming quarters.
- Target to achieve 55 compressed biogas plants by the end of this calendar year, with construction in full swing.
Risks flagged
- New European sanctions package may make Russian oil cheaper, but management is evaluating the text and impact on feedstock costs and export destinations.
- Early onset of monsoon rains impacted AC sales and consumer electronics revenue growth, which was lower than expected.
- Upstream production saw a natural decline, partially offset by planned shutdowns; management expects incremental production only by second half of 2028.
- Costs from store closures in Q3 and Q4 of last year continued to impact Q1 margins, though largely behind now.
Key quotes
- We are on track to double our value by the end of the golden decade.
- This is a Jio moment for our new energy business. Like how Jio revolutionized and democratized data for Indian customers, we are looking to provide the same solution and energy revolution for the country.
- Our UBR technology is a global-first offering at scale. We are the world leaders in this.
