Reliance Industries shares rose 3% after the AGM as Mukesh Ambani announced a Jio IPO filing, a target to double EBITDA in five years and a major push into AI and new energy.

Reliance Industries shares climbed nearly 3% in early trade on Monday, touching an intraday high of ₹1,344.90 against Friday's close of ₹1,309.50.

At 11:10 AM, Reliance Industries shares were trading at ₹1,339.50.

The rally followed the conglomerate's 49th annual general meeting (AGM) on Friday, where Chairman Mukesh Ambani outlined a growth roadmap that gave investors several concrete triggers to respond to.

The meeting delivered a series of forward-looking commitments across Reliance's major businesses:

  • Jio Platforms draft red herring prospectus was filed, with the listing expected to be among India's largest ever initial public offerings (IPOs).

  • Target to more than double the consolidated earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) over the next five years.

  • First artificial intelligence (AI) compute capacity commissioning targeted by the end of 2026.

  • Multiple AI-led solutions showcased for customers across business verticals.

  • New energy commissioning milestones highlighted with accelerated revenue generation planned.

  • Deeper push into manufacturing across fresh produce, apparel and consumer electronics.

  • Reliance Consumer Products targeting ₹1 trillion in gross revenue by FY30.

  • New growth avenues, including underground coal gasification, were announced.

Ambani laid out five strategic pillars for long-term value creation:

  • Reinventing the oil-to-chemicals business.

  • Accelerating new energy commissioning and early revenue generation.

  • Scaling Reliance Intelligence, the company's AI platform.

  • Building Reliance Consumer Products into India's largest fast-moving consumer goods company.

  • Enabling $125 to $150 billion in exports by 2032.

Brokerages said the AGM confirmed AI as a core technology being deployed across Reliance's businesses and added that the current valuation assigns no worth to the company's AI, fast-moving consumer goods, media, new materials or export businesses. That disconnect between current pricing and the growth being outlined was a recurring theme in post-AGM brokerage notes.

Despite Monday's rally, Reliance Industries shares remain down nearly 15% on a year-to-date basis and approximately 8% over the past twelve months. The stock touched a 52-week high of ₹1,611.20 on 05 January 2026 and hit a 52-week low of ₹1,253.65 as recently as 11 June 2026.

The Jio IPO filing is widely seen as the most important near-term catalyst for narrowing the conglomerate discount that has weighed on the stock through the year.
