Mukesh Ambani's Reliance gets $2.9 bn in biggest India loan since 2023
Mukesh Ambani-owned Reliance Industries has obtained a dual-currency borrowing of $2.9 billion-equivalent, the largest offshore Indian loan in over a year, as per a report by Bloomberg. About 55 lenders joined the facility, making it the largest bank group for a syndicated loan in Asia so far this year, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg. The interest shows lenders' appetite for quality assets in a market starved for deals. Asia Pacific ex-Japan loan volumes hit a 20-year low so far in 2025, closing about $29 billion of deals denominated in US dollars, euros and yen — also known as G3 currencies, according to Bloomberg-compiled data. "Reliance Industries' loan is split into a $2.4 billion tranche and a ¥67.7 billion ($462 million) piece, the people told Bloomberg, adding that the facility agreement was signed on May 9." Bloomberg data shows that RIL has repayments worth about $2.9 billion, including interest payments, due in 2025. Live Events Reliance Industries is currently rated one notch above India's sovereign grade, a rare instance of when a company's creditworthiness is higher than the country it's based in. The borrower is rated Baa2 by Moody's Ratings and BBB by Fitch Ratings.

Mukesh Ambani to gain Rs 100000000000 if he sells stock of..., profit will be...
Mukesh Ambani (File) New Delhi: Mukesh Ambani, India's richest man, is likely to make a massive Rs 10,000 crore profit on a Rs 500 crore investment. According to the reports, the investment was made at the height of the 2008 global financial crisis. In what stands as one of the most profitable stock market moves in recent times, Reliance Industries' investment in Asian Paints has surged to an impressive Rs 10,500 crore without counting dividends. In 2008, amid the global financial crisis and the collapse of Lehman Brothers that left markets in turmoil, Reliance Industries Limited acquired a 4.9 percent stake in Asian Paints through its investment arm, Ojasvi Trading. Today, for Reliance, that move is bearing fruit in the kind of numbers even private equity dreams are made of. According to an Economic Times report, RIL has revived plans to sell its entire 4.9% stake in Asian Paints, nearly two decades after buying in. The timing of this move is just as compelling as the investment itself. Over the last three years, the shares of Asian Paints have shed 25 percent, making it one of the worst-performing blue-chip stocks in that period. Its once-impregnable fortress is now under siege — notably from Birla Opus Paints, a new entrant backed by the Aditya Birla Group. Asian Paints' market share has fallen from 59% to 52% in FY25, according to Elara Securities. 'We strongly believe that as a brand we need to take calibrated action to ensure that we tackle the competition in a more sustainable way,' Asian Paints CEO Amit Syngle told investors recently. However, challenges persist. The company has reported subdued revenue growth for four consecutive quarters, attributing it to weak urban demand and an early Diwali. More worrisome is the pressure on margins—despite a decline in raw material costs, rising rebates and intensified competition have led to a year-on-year contraction in gross margins.
