History

1958–1980

Stamp released in 2002 to honor


company founder Dhirubhai Ambani

Reliance Commercial Corporation was set


up in 1958 by Dhirubhai Ambani as a small
venture firm trading commodities,
especially spices and polyester yarn.[1] In
1965, the partnership ended and Dhirubhai
continued the polyester business of the
firm.[11] 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.[12] On 8 May 1973, it became
Reliance Textiles Industries Limited. In
1975, the 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.[13] The issue was over-subscribed by
seven times.[14] In 1979, a textiles
company Sidhpur Mills was amalgamated
with the company.[15] In 1980, the company
expanded its polyester yarn business by
setting up a Polyester Filament Yarn Plant
in Patalganga, Raigad, Maharashtra with
financial and technical collaboration with
E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., U.S.[12]

1981–2000

In 1985, the name of the company was


changed from Reliance Textiles Industries
Ltd. to Reliance Industries Ltd.[12] During
1985 to 1992, the company expanded its
installed capacity for producing polyester
yarn by over 145,000 tonnes per annum.[12]
The Hazira petrochemical plant was
commissioned in 1991–92.[16]

In 1993, Reliance turned to the overseas


capital markets for funds through a global
depository 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 Reliance "BB+, stable outlook,
constrained by the sovereign ceiling".
Moody's rated "Baa3, Investment grade,
constrained by the sovereign ceiling".[17]

In 1995/96, the company entered the


telecom industry through a joint venture
with NYNEX, USA, and promoted Reliance
Telecom Private Limited in India.[16]

In 1998, Reliance took over Indian


Petrochemicals Corporation Limited during
privatization of public sector enterprises.

In 1998/99, RIL introduced packaged LPG

construction of the integrated
petrochemical complex at Jamnagar in

major financial parameters.[18] In 2001–02,
Reliance Petroleum was merged with
Reliance Industries.[13]

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 more than 7 trillion
cubic feet, equivalent to about 120 crore
(1.2 billion) barrels of crude oil. This was
the first-ever discovery by an Indian private
sector company.[13][19]

In 2002–03, RIL purchased a majority


stake in Indian Petrochemicals
Corporation Ltd. (IPCL), India's second
largest petrochemicals company, from the
government of India,[20] RIL took over
IPCL's Vadodara Plants and renamed it as

(VMD).[21][22] IPCL's Nagothane and Dahej
manufacturing complexes came under RIL
when IPCL was merged with RIL in
2008.[23][24]

reorganised its business by demerging its
investments in power generation and
distribution, financial services and
telecommunication services into four
separate entities.[25]

In 2006, Reliance entered the organised


retail market in India[26] with the launch of
its retail store format under the brand
name of 'Reliance Fresh'.[27][28] By the end
of 2008, Reliance Retail had close to 600
stores across 57 cities in India.[13]

In November 2009, Reliance Industries


issued 1:1 bonus shares to its
shareholders.

In 2010, Reliance entered the broadband


services market with acquisition of Infotel
Broadband Services Limited, which was
the only successful bidder for pan-India
fourth-generation (4G) spectrum auction
held by the government of India.[29][30]

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.[31] Reliance also formed a 50:50
joint venture with BP for sourcing and
marketing of gas in India.[32]

Russian Company Sibur for setting up a
Butyl rubber plant in Jamnagar, Gujarat, to
be operational by 2018.[33]

RIL was certified as 'Responsible Care
Company' by the American Chemistry

RIL was ranked at 25th position across
the world, on the basis of sales, in the
ICIS Top 100 Chemicals Companies list
in 2012.[98]
RIL was awarded the National Golden
Peacock Award 2011 for its contribution
in the field of corporate sustainability.[99]
In 2009, Boston Consulting Group (BCG)
named Reliance Industries as the
world's fifth biggest 'sustainable value

Reliance demerger and


family feud

The Ambani family holds around 45% of


the shares in RIL.[102] Since its inception,
the company was managed by its founder
and chairman Dhirubhai Ambani. After
suffering a stroke 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'.[103] He also said that the
differences "are in the private domain". The
share prices [104] 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 two parts.[105] In October
2005, the split of Reliance Group was
formalised. 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.[106][107]

The division of Reliance group business


between the two brothers also resulted in
de-merger of 4 businesses from
RIL.[108][109] 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.[25]

Criticism and controversies

ONGC litigation

In May 2014, ONGC moved to Delhi High


Court accusing RIL of pilferage of 18
billion cubic metres of gas from its gas-
producing block in the Krishna Godavari
basin.[110] Subsequently, the two
companies agreed to form an independent
expert panel to probe any pilferage.[111]

Cronyism

Seminar magazine (2003) detailed


Reliance founder Dhirubhai Ambani's
proximity to politicians, his enmity with
Bombay Dyeing's Nusli Wadia, the exposes
by the Indian Express and Arun Shourie
about illegal imports by the company and
overseas share transactions by shell
companies, and the botched attempt to
acquire Larsen & Toubro.[112]
As early as 1996, Outlook magazine
addressed other controversies related to
fake and switched shares; insider trading;
and a nexus with the state-owned Unit
Trust of India. Five main allegations
concerning Reliance, which have plunged
the Indian capital markets into a period of
uncertainty unsurpassed since the days of
the securities scam were:

Reliance issued fake shares.


It switched shares sent for transfer by
buyers to make illegal profits.
It indulged in insider trading in shares.
It established a nexus with the Unit Trust
of India to raise huge sums of money to
the detriment of UTI subscribers.
It attempted to monopolize the private
telecom services market through front
companies.[113]

2005 Criminal investigation

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI)


filed a charge sheet in a Mumbai court
against Reliance Industries Limited (RIL)
and four retired employees of National
Insurance Company Limited (NICL),
including a former CMD, under provisions
of the Prevention of Corruption Act for
criminal conspiracy and other charges.
Acting on a reference from CVC in March
2005, the CBI started probing the
conspiracy that led to the filing of the
charge sheet on 9 December 2011. The
2005 complaint had alleged irregularities
in the issuance of insurance policies — for
coverage of default payments — by NICL
to RIL. The charge sheet also mentioned
criminal offenses with dishonest intention
and causing wrongful loss totaling
₹147.41 crores to NICL and wrongful gain
to the private telecom provider.[114]

Two retired senior officials of National


Insurance Company Limited and 11 others
were awarded varying jail terms by a Delhi
court in Jan 2014.[115]
RIL plane grounded

A 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; its pilot was
also suspended for flying without a
license.[116]

Krishna Godavari (KG) Basin gas


controversy

Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) was


supposed to relinquish 25% of the total
area outside the discoveries in 2004 and
2005, as per the Production Sharing
Contract (PSC). However, the entire block
was declared as a discovery area and RIL
was allowed to retain it. In 2011, the
Comptroller and Auditor General of India
(CAG) criticized the Oil Ministry for this
decision. The CAG also faulted RIL for
limiting the competition in contracts,
stating that RIL awarded a $1.1 billion
contract to Aker on a single-bid
basis.[117][118]

Petition against Reliance Jio


A PIL filed in the Supreme Court by an NGO
Centre for Public Interest Litigation,
through Prashant Bhushan, challenged the
grant of a pan-India license 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 fee of just INR
16,580 million (US$280 million) which was
arbitrary and unreasonable and
contributed to a loss of INR 228,420
million (US$3.8 billion) to the
exchequer.[119][120]

The CAG in its draft report alleged rigging


of the auction mechanism, whereby an
unknown ISP, Infotech Broadband Services
Pvt Ltd, acquired the spectrum by bidding
5000 times its net worth, after which the
company was sold to Reliance
Industries.[121]

Future Retail deal and possession

In February 2022, Reliance terminated the


leases of hundreds of Future Retail
locations, the next largest retail chain in
India, and took possession of those brick-
and-mortar shops. Future Retail had a deal
to sell its assets to Reliance, but that deal
was contested by Amazon.com, which in
2019 acquired a stake in a subunit of
Future Retail along with certain rights with
respect to the transfer of the retailer's
assets. Reliance's possessions came after
rounds of legal wrangling, including a 2020
arbitration in Singapore and an antitrust
review by the Competition Commission of
India.[122][123][124][125]

Stock manipulation and penalty

For manipulating shares of Reliance


Petroleum Limited (RPL), Reliance
Industries was fined Rs. 950 crore (about
447 crore in retracted gains and 500 crore
in interest) in 2007.[126] In April 2006, RPL
went public as a Reliance subsidiary at a
price of Rs. 60 per share. The market
crashed by 30% after it floated at roughly
Rs. 100, and RPL was back at 60. In
accordance with Securities and Exchange
Board of India directive, RIL carried out an
organised operation with the help of its
agents in order to obtain unauthorised
profits from the trading of its formerly
listed unit, RPL, which was combined with
the former in 2009.[127][128][129][130][131]
