Massive surge! Reliance Industries shares up 12% after Q2; add ₹2 lakh cr in mcap — when did RIL last rally this much?
Reliance Industries moved higher in a quarterly results development.
· LiveMint Markets
Reliance Industries shares surged nearly 12% to ₹1,300 on Monday, their biggest comparable daily gain since April 2020, after the company reported record second-quarter profit. The rally added ₹1.84 lakh crore to its market value, lifting it to ₹17.6 lakh crore.
The analysis
Reliance Industries reported ₹2 lakh, ₹1,300 and ₹1.84 lakh crore, with movement of 12% 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 +11.6% on the day at ₹1,300.00, and has returned -0.6% over three months. It sits 18% below its 52-week high. The oil & energy sector has moved -4.2% over the same period, so Reliance Industries is running 3.6 points ahead of 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.
Why it matters
- Earnings versus expectations is what actually re-rates a stock; the surprise matters more than the absolute number.
Market context

- Over three months: Reliance Industries -0.6% against Oil & Energy -4.2% (3.6 points ahead).
