Reliance Industries is in focus.
· Economic Times Markets, ET Stocks
Jio Platforms’ stock market debut has brought its standalone valuation into focus, raising questions about value unlocking for Reliance Industries shareholders. Analysts weigh the outlook for Jio and RIL, the holding-company discount, and the growth drivers shaping their investment cases.
The analysis
Against that, the stock is +0.8% on the day at ₹1,167.40, and has returned -8.5% over three months. It sits 27% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The oil & energy sector has moved -5.1% over the same period, so Reliance Industries is running 3.4 points behind its peers.
For Reliance Industries, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the oil & energy peer set alongside it.
