"We have recorded yet another strong quarterly performance with net profit of Rs. 9,108 crore, up 28 percent Y-o-Y. Our industry leading portfolio of assets in the refining and petrochemicals business contributed to considerable improvement in our earnings for the quarter," said Chairman and MD, Reliance Industries Limited, Mukesh D.

Adding to this Ambani added that over the last four decades, Reliance has continued to grow and evolve by creating value through building competitive global scale businesses and delivering increasing shareholder returns.
"Over the past three to four years, we made significant investments in new plants, thus creating organic growth platforms for our energy and materials businesses. Full commissioning of new PX facility at Jamnagar during the quarter will strengthen the integration within our polyester chain," added Ambani.
