Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India] October 17 : Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) on Friday reported a 14.3 per cent year-on-year (YoY) increase in consolidated net profit at Rs 22,092 crore for the quarter ending September 30, 2025, driven by strong performances across its Oil-to-Chemicals (O2C), digital services, and retail businesses.
The company's consolidated revenue rose 10 per cent YoY to Rs 2,83,548 crore, while quarterly consolidated EBITDA grew 14.6 per cent to Rs 50,367 crore. The growth was supported by higher throughput in the O2C segment, strong consumer demand, and continued traction in Jio's digital operations.
Commenting on the results, Mukesh D. Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director, said, "Reliance delivered a robust performance during 2QFY26 led by strong contribution from O2C, Jio and retail businesses. Consolidated EBITDA registered 14.6% growth on a Y-o-Y basis, reflecting agile business operations, domestic-focused portfolio and structural growth in Indian economy."
"O2C business delivered robust growth on Y-o-Y basis, despite continued volatility in energy markets. Fuel margins recovered over previous year led by middle distillate cracks...

The O2C business achieved its highest-ever quarterly throughput of 20.8 million metric tonnes, up 3 per cent YoY, and reported a 20.9 per cent rise in EBITDA to Rs 15,008 crore.
