Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) on Friday reported consolidated net profit of Rs 13,680 crore in the September quarter (Q2), up 43 per cent from the same period last year, on improved performance across key businesses even as finance cost fell 37 per cent on a year-on-year basis.

Consolidated revenues, PBIDT (profit before interest, depreciation, and tax), and net profit were the highest-ever since June 2013 (since consolidated is available), and also beat consensus estimates. For Reliance Jio Infocomm (Jio), too, these parameters were its highest ever. RIL’s results were announced late evening on Friday. Its shares closed 0.15
