Reliance Industries (RIL), an energy-to-telecom conglomerate led by billionaire Mukesh Ambani, announced an 11% YoY increase in net profit for the third quarter of FY24, coming in at Rs19,641 crore.
The company's consumer business growth momentum drove a 3.2% YoY increase in gross revenue to Rs 2,48,160 crore in Q3FY24. The retail and oil and gas divisions drove the majority of the revenue, with the oil-to-chemicals (O2C) arm experiencing a fall in revenue due to reduced price realization.

With a 9% YoY increase in its customer base to 471 million and a 2% YoY increase in average revenue per user (ARPU) to Rs 181.7, RIL's EBITDA for Digital Services increased 11% YoY.

It raised SOTP-based TP by 8% to Rs 2,950 per share, on the strength of greater new energy value (1.5x EV/IC) as development moves forward, higher Jio EV/EBITDA objective, and rollover to Dec-24E. It mostly maintained FY24-26E profit expectations. The firm kept its Reliance Industries rating at "Add."
