Mukesh Ambani will address the Reliance AGM on Friday
Reliance AGM Meeting 2025 Highlights: Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) on Friday started its 48th Annual General Meeting (AGM) at 2:00 PM, with focus on AI, Jio IPO plans and India's growth amid uncertainties.
RIL chairman announced the highly anticipated IPO plan for the telco Jio arm.
Reliance AGM: Where to watch live?
The 48th RIL AGM will be held through Video Conferencing (VC) / Other Audio-Visual Means (OAVM). Investors and market enthusiasts can watch the event on the official website of Reliance. It can also be live-streamed on the official YouTube handle Reliance.
Reliance Industries 48th AGM 2025 Date and Time
The annual general meeting will start at 2 pm on August 29.
Investors Expectations from Mukesh Ambani Led Reliance AGM
The long-pending IPO timeline for Reliance Jio and Reliance Retail will be the highly anticipated announcement that investors are eagerly waiting for. Back in 2019, Ambani had hinted at plans to list both companies within five years.
However, no concrete update has followed since. As the company crosses that five-year mark, markets will be keen to see if the management provides any clarity on when these IPOs could materialise.
Analysts note that while the listing of Jio and Retail could unlock significant value, holding company discounts may temper immediate shareholder impact.
Another area to watch is RIL’s push into artificial intelligence.
As RIL undergoes a transformation in its new energy business, evolving into a deep-tech manufacturing entity, the investors are expecting key announcements around the NE vertical.
The company posted a 78% year-on-year rise in its Q1FY26 consolidated net profit to Rs 26,994 crore, compared to Rs 15,138 crore in the same period last year.
Will Mukesh Ambani Launch Jio IPO Today?
The investors would also be keeping an eye on the long-pending IPO timeline for Reliance Jio and Reliance Retail.
While listing of Jio and Retail could unlock substantial value, holding company discounts may limit the immediate benefits for shareholders, said analysts.
