Reliance Industries Ltd Posts Q1 FY26 Consolidated Profit Of Rs 26,994 Crore
Mumbai, July 19 (UNI) Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) officially announced that it has posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 26,994 crore for the first quarter which ended in June 2025 (Q1) of the financial year 2026 (FY26), marking a sharp 78.3% rise from Rs 15,138 crore in the same period last year. Sequentially, the company's profit grew 39.1% from Rs 19,407 crore in Q4 FY25. Consolidated revenue from operations for the conglomerate stood at Rs 2,73,252 crore for the quarter, which is 6% more compared to Rs 2,57,823 crore year-on-year (Y-o-Y), according to a company statement today. Reliance Industries Limited Chairman & Managing Director Mukesh Ambani said, 'Reliance has begun FY26 with a robust, all-round operational and financial performance. Consolidated EBITDA for Q1 FY26 improved strongly from a year-ago period, despite significant volatility in global macros. During the quarter, energy markets encountered heightened uncertainty, with sharp fluctuations in crude prices. Performance was supported by improvement in fuel and downstream product margins. Natural decline in natural gas production from Krishna-Godavari D6 resulted in marginally lower EBITDA for the oil and gas segment," Mukesh Ambani said. "The company's retail business customer base expanded to 358 million and the focus is on strengthening its portfolio of our own FMCG brands. Jio has scaled newer heights during the quarter including crossing 200 million 5G subscribers and 20 million home connections. Jio AirFiber is now the largest Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) service provider in the world, with a base of 7.4 million subscribers," Mukesh Ambani said. Mukesh Ambani laid out an ambitious target based on the company's performance and growth plans, saying, "Reliance will continue its stellar track record of doubling every 4 to 5 years." UNI XC BM

And in a festival first Hotline Bling hit-maker Drake took to the stage for his first full UK performance in six years. He headlined the main stage each evening in a deal thought to be worth millions. The singer put on a stellar performance bringing out incredible guest acts including Skepta, Lauryn Hill and Rema. But, it was another moment on stage that really caught fans attention. In clips circulating social media snipped from the event, Drake can be heard onstage asking the audience to name an artist he should clash with and that he will bring them onstage. The crowd then breaks out into a chorus chanting the expletive 'F*** Kendrick' in reference to rap rival Kendrick Lamar. To which Drake responds: 'Grab me a shot I'll drink to that.' The pair had seemingly buried the hatchet from their long-standing feud but now Drake has reignited the pair's rivalry. Fans took to social media gushing over the clip, one user said: 'Things like these don't end that easily.' Hidden link between Kendrick Lamar's beef with Drake, the Super Bowl halftime show, and Duolingo's dead owl revealed 'Yeesh, this battle still going?' questioned another. "It's been a year and drake is still dragging it I'm in tears." penned a third. 'Kendrick n Drake will never end this feud.' added a fourth. The duo's feud began when Drake and J. Cole released First Person Shooter, in which the latter claimed that himself, Drake, and Kendrick are the 'big three' of hip-hop. Their beef then escalated when Kendrick featured on Future and Metro Boomin's song Like That. On the abovementioned track, Kendrick responded to the claim of a "big three" in his verse where he instead stated, 'It's just big me," and accused Drake and J. Cole of sneak dissing. Kendrick also alluded to Drake's album For All the Dogs and added: "For all your dogs gettin' buried, that's a K with all these nines, he gon' see Pet Sematary." Drake responded to Kendrick with the track Push Ups, which had lyrics ridiculing Kendrick's height and his mainstream collaborations with Taylor Swift and Maroon 5. Fuel was added to the fire when Kendrick then released Not Like Us, which accuses Drake of being a pedophile. The tune won Kendrick five awards for best music video, rap song, rap performance, song, and record of the year at the Grammys in 2025.
