A recovery in the O2C business is expected to lift Reliance Industries' Q1 FY27 earnings, with profit likely to rise nearly 20% sequentially. Investors will also track Jio's growth, retail margins, new energy plans and management's commentary on capital expenditure and the proposed Jio IPO.
Reliance Industries is set to announce its financial results for the first quarter of FY27 on Friday, July 17. The company is expected to release its earnings after market hours.
Market participants expect the company to report a healthy quarter. A recovery in the oil-to-chemicals (O2C) business is likely to support earnings, while Jio is expected to continue delivering steady growth.
According to market estimates, Reliance Industries is likely to report consolidated revenue of around ₹3,01,024 crore for the June quarter. This would be an increase of 2.4% from ₹2,94,059 crore reported in the March quarter. EBITDA is expected to rise 5% to around ₹46,367 crore from ₹44,141 crore. EBITDA margin is also likely to improve to 15.4%, compared with 15% in the previous quarter.
Net profit is expected to see the greatest improvement. Investors estimate profit at around ₹20,451 crore, which would be nearly 20% higher than ₹16,971 crore reported during the March quarter.
EBITDA from the segment is estimated at ₹16,146 crore, compared with ₹14,520 crore in the previous quarter. The improvement is expected to come from better petrochemical spreads and stronger gross refining margins at the company's SEZ refinery.
The retail business is expected to report EBITDA of around ₹6,784 crore. This would be slightly lower than ₹6,921 crore reported in the March quarter.
The oil and gas exploration business may also report a softer performance. EBITDA is expected to decline marginally to ₹4,148 crore from ₹4,195 crore, mainly due to lower production levels.
Investors expect earnings to benefit from continued subscriber additions and improving average revenue per user (ARPU) as more customers migrate to higher-value plans. More critical than the quarterly performance would be the outlook. Investors would be eager to hear about Jio's future tariff plans, subscriber additions, and its plan to go public. Other than that, investors would like to know how things are shaping up for oil sourcing, refining and petrochemical margins.
As of July 16, 2026, the shares were trading over ₹1,300.
Additionally, the stock has declined 17.18% so far in 2026. Over the last one year, it has fallen 12.16%. Investors will now watch whether the June quarter results and management commentary can improve sentiment towards the stock.
Reliance Industries Ltd is India's largest private sector enterprise. It is the flagship company of the Reliance Group, led by Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh D. Ambani. The company operates across several businesses, including oil and gas exploration, petroleum refining, petrochemicals, digital services, organised retail and media & entertainment.
