RIL’s gross revenue increased by 6% YoY to Rs 2,73,252 crore ($ 31.9 billion). The Jio Platform revenue increased by 18.8% YoY due to strong subscriber growth across mobility and homes, increased consumption and sustained positive momentum in digital services.
Meanwhile Reliance Retail Ventures (RRVL) revenue increased by 11.3% YoY. All segments performed well, with market leading performance in grocery and fashion, the company filing said.The Oil to Chemicals (O2C) revenue decreased by 1.5% YoY due to a fall in crude oil prices and lower volumes on account of the planned shutdown. Segment revenues were supported by increased domestic placement of transportation fuels through Jio-BP.The Oil & Gas segment revenue decreased by 1.2% YoY mainly on account of lower sales volume of KGD6 gas with natural decline in production, lower gas price for CBM and lower crude price realization. This was partly offset with improved KGD6 gas price realization, the company filing said.
Jio Platform EBITDA increased by 23.9% YoY driven by strong growth in ARPU and 210 bps margin expansion led by operational efficiencies.
The RRVL EBITDA increased by 12.7% YoY led by strategic initiatives, operating leverage and cost discipline.
Meanwhile O2C EBITDA increased by 10.8% YoY due to favourable margin on domestic fuel retail, improvements in transportation fuel cracks and PP, PVC delta. This was partially offset by lower volumes on planned turnaround and decline in polyester chain margins.
As for the Oil & Gas segment, EBITDA decreased by 4.1% Y-o-Y on account of lower revenues coupled with increase in operating costs due to higher maintenance activities during the quarter.
Management commentary
Commenting on the results, Chairman & Managing Director Mukesh Ambani said that RIL has started FY26 with a robust, all-round operational and financial performance. Consolidated EBITDA for 1QFY26 improved strongly from year-ago period, despite significant volatility in global macros, he said.
“During the quarter, energy markets encountered heightened uncertainty, with sharp fluctuations in crude prices. Our O2C business delivered strong growth, with thrust on domestic demand fulfillment and offering value-added solutions through Jio-bp network. Performance was supported by improvement in fuel and downstream product margins. Natural decline in KGD6 gas production resulted in marginally lower EBITDA for Oil & Gas segment,” Ambani said.
On the retail business, the CMD said that RIL’s retail business continues to enhance its ability to fulfill everyday as well as specialized needs of all customer cohorts, through a multi-channel approach.
As for Jio, he said that the business scaled newer heights during the quarter including crossing 200 million 5G subscribers and 20 million home connects. “Jio AirFiber is now the largest FWA service provider in the world, with a base of 7.4 million subscribers. Our Digital Services business consolidated its market position with a robust financial and operational performance,” he further said.
