Most analysts raised Reliance Industries Ltd.’s earnings estimates and target price after the second-quarter earnings, expecting the growth momentum to continue in FY23 on retail, upstream and oil-to-chemicals segments.
There are a few downside risks such as deterioration in refining margins, weakness in petrochemical margins, sharper rupee appreciation against the dollar, lower-than-expected tariff hikes in Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd., and slowdown in Reliance Retail Ltd.’s growth, according to analysts.
RIL’s second-quarter profit fell on lower operating income and margins. The numbers were, however, better than what analysts expected.
The Mukesh Ambani-led conglomerate’s consolidated profit declined 20.2% sequentially to Rs 15,512 crore in the quarter ended September, according to its exchange filing. That compares with the Rs 14,456.5-crore consensus estimate of analysts t tracked by Bloomberg.
