Reliance Industries plans to raise around ₹10,000 crore (~$1.04 billion) through a sale of 10-year notes at an annual coupon of 7.90%, merchant bankers say.

Reliance Industries reported ₹10,000 crore, with movement of 7.90% attached to those lines. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.

Against that, the stock is -2.5% on the day at ₹1,177.40, and has returned -7.9% over three months. It sits 26% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The oil & energy sector has moved -0.3% over the same period, so Reliance Industries is running 7.6 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.

  • The company directly in focus is RELIANCE.
  • Sector exposure: Oil & Energy.
