Reliance Industries’ critical revenues come from petrochemicals, oil, and gas. The demand for their products remains high in India and abroad, and the company earns billions of dollars per year. Just recently, RIL had also purchased oil from Russian tankers at discounted prices due to the sanctions.
India saved nearly $7 billion in exchange rates by paying for oil in local currencies with Russia. However, Reliance Industries has now paused procuring Russian oil and is buying from refiners in the US. Also, Reliance Industries is a large-cap share, and its movements can dictate the broader stock market index.
Sensex and Nifty could print new monthly highs if Reliance Industries shares rise 16% in the coming months. At press time, the Sensex is 84,155, and the Nifty is 25,702.
