RILs September-quarter result was in line with expectations. Its strong petrochemical performance was weakened partially by lower refinery profits. Further, rupee depreciation and lower treasury profits took a toll on interest expenses and other income. <\/p>\n<p>Consolidated capital expenditure remained high at Rs 39,000 crore in the second quarter. Of this, Rs 16,000 crore was towards Reliance Jio Infocomm and Rs 13,000 crore for RIL standalone. The company also announced an investment of Rs 5,230 crore to acquire a 66.5% stake in <a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/den-networks-ltd\/stocks\/companyid-30425.cms\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Den Networks<\/a> and 51% of Hathway Cable by subscribing to preferential shares, as part of its efforts to accelerate Jios GigaFiber home broadband business. <\/p>\n<p>Some analysts raised concern over RILs elevated capex. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would wait for stabilisation of capex at lower level and growth trajectory of Jio before assigning it a higher valuation,\u201d said IDBI Capital analyst Sudeep Anand. \u201cWe expect significant monetisation of the GigaFiber business may take longer than expected time due to last-mile connectivity issues while pricing pressure in the mobility business may keep ARPU at a lower level in the near term\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>Some <a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/topic\/investors\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">investors<\/a> were concerned by the delay in its $5 billion petcoke gasification project. The delay, according to analysts, is an indication of pressure on refining earnings in the forthcoming quarters. \u201cWe reiterate sell given our concerns on persisting high capex, non-contributing capital work in progress and rising debt levels, all of which constrain a sustainable improvement in return ratios and free cash flows in the medium term,\u201d said Tarun Lakhotia of Kotak Securities.\u201cThe recent deterioration in refining and petchem margins may compound woes in the near term.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/acceptable.html\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/markets\/stocks\/news\/rils-spending-spree-project-delay-spook-investors-stock-slides\/articleshow\/66289920.cms\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Original Article<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[contf]<br \/>\n[contfnew]<br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.etimg.com\/photo\/60278104.cms\"\/><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">ET Markets<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>[contfnewc]<br \/>\n[contfnewc]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mumbai: Shares of Reliance Industries (RIL) plunged as much ..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":95341,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[202],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-95340","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
