Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) reported muted performance in its Oil & Gas segment for the fourth quarter of FY25. The revenue stood at ₹6,440 crore, showing a marginal year-on-year decline of 0.43% compared to ₹6,468 crore in Q4 FY24.
EBITDA for the segment dropped 8.61% YoY, falling to ₹5,123 crore from ₹5,606 crore in the same quarter last year. The operating margin also contracted to 79.5%, down from 86.7% in Q4 FY24 and 87.4% in Q3 FY25, reflecting reduced operating leverage and higher cost pressures.
The Oil & Gas business remains a key contributor to RIL’s portfolio, but the Q4 FY25 performance highlights challenges in maintaining profitability amidst fluctuating energy market dynamics.
Commenting on the Oil & Gas performance, Mukesh D. Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries Limited, stated: “FY2025 has been a challenging year for the global business environment, with weak macro-economic conditions and a shifting geo-political landscape. Despite these challenges, the Oil & Gas business recorded its highest ever annual EBITDA, driven by higher production from our KGD6 and CBM blocks.”
He added, “The business faced considerable volatility in energy markets, leading to significant demand-supply imbalances in downstream chemicals markets, which resulted in multi-year low margins. However, our teams focused on optimization of integrated operations and feedstock costs to enhance margin capture across value chains.”
Overall, the company reported a consolidated net profit of ₹19,407 crore in Q4 FY25, up 2.41% from ₹18,951 crore in Q4 FY24. Revenue stood at ₹2.61 lakh crore, marking a 10.59% year-on-year increase from ₹2.36 lakh crore. EBITDA came in at ₹43,832 crore, rising 3.09% from ₹42,516 crore a year ago. However, EBITDA margin dropped to 16.8%, compared to 18% in the same period last year and 18.25% in the previous quarter.
