Reliance Industries Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh Ambani on Friday announced that Reliance Jio Infocomm is preparing for its much-awaited IPO, targeted for the first half of 2026. Speaking at the company’s 48th Annual General Meeting, Ambani assured shareholders that the offering will showcase Jio’s ability to create global-scale value.

“Today, it is my proud privilege to announce, that Jio is making all arrangements for its IPO. We are aiming to list Jio by the first half of 2026, subject to all necessary approvals. I assure you that this will demonstrate that Jio is capable of creating the same quantum of value as our global counterparts. I am sure, it will be a very attractive opportunity for all investors,” Ambani said.

Reliance has long hinted at a public listing for its telecom and digital services arm. The announcement now gives a concrete timeline, easing years of speculation since Ambani first suggested a Jio IPO back in 2019.

The company highlighted that this IPO will unlock significant shareholder value and cement Jio’s position alongside top global players in the telecom and technology space.
