Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) shares witnessed a significant rise on April 28, 2025, after the company posted better-than-expected earnings for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2025. The shares jumped over 5%, making it the top gainer on the Nifty 50 index, closing at Rs 1,336.30 apiece. This marked RIL\u2019s largest single-day gain since June 3, 2024.<\/p>\n
The company\u2019s net profit for Q4 FY25 rose 2.4% year-on-year, totaling Rs 19,407 crore, driven by lower depreciation, interest, and tax rates. Revenue for the quarter also grew 8.8% from the previous year to Rs 2.88 lakh crore, boosted by strong performances across its digital services, retail, and oil-to-chemicals (O2C) businesses.<\/p>\n

Reliance Industries’ growth was largely driven by the impressive performance of its core business segments: digital services, retail, and the oil-to-chemicals (O2C) division. These key drivers helped the company exceed earnings expectations, prompting brokerages to raise their target prices for the stock.<\/p>\n
Brokerages have praised RIL\u2019s robust performance, particularly in the O2C segment, which outperformed market expectations. The strong quarterly results have led to increased confidence in RIL\u2019s ability to deliver consistent growth across its diversified portfolio.<\/p>\n

Following RIL\u2019s Q4 results, several brokerages have raised their target prices for the stock, citing strong growth prospects in the company\u2019s key segments. Domestic brokerage Motilal Oswal expects Reliance Jio to drive the most growth, forecasting a 21% annual EBITDA growth over FY25-27, fueled by potential tariff hikes, market share gains in wireless, and expansion of the homes and enterprise business.<\/p>\n
Global brokerage Nomura Holdings identified multiple growth drivers for RIL, including the scale-up of the new energy business, the upcoming tariff hikes for Jio, and the potential listing of Jio, which could unlock significant value for RIL. Additionally, with the completion of Reliance Retail\u2019s operational streamlining, the retail business is expected to sustain a healthy growth trajectory.<\/p>\n

JPMorgan noted the sharp acceleration in Reliance Retail\u2019s growth, which jumped 16% year-on-year in Q4 FY25. The brokerage believes the favorable valuations for Reliance Retail could contribute positively to RIL’s stock price in the near term.<\/p>\n
On the new energy front, Nuvama Institutional Equities highlighted the potential for the new energy segment to account for 12% of RIL\u2019s profit by FY2030. The segment\u2019s growth aligns with the company\u2019s plans to position new energy as a major contributor to its consolidated net profit in the long term. This shift is expected to significantly impact the company\u2019s valuation, especially as \u2018clean\u2019 technologies gain importance.<\/p>\n

Motilal Oswal projects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13-14% in consolidated EBITDA and PAT for RIL over FY25-27. This growth is expected to be driven by a double-digit EBITDA growth in Reliance Jio and Retail. Despite a subdued FY25, Motilal Oswal anticipates a recovery in the O2C segment, with improved refining margins contributing to future earnings growth.<\/p>\n
