Reliance navigates oil market volatility with diverse sourcing, ops shifts

India's largest private refiner Reliance Industries Ltd relied on diversified crude sourcing and operational agility to navigate a volatile energy market during the last quarter of FY26, marked by geopolitical disruptions and sharp cost swings. After the Iran war disrupted oil and gas flows from Gulf countries, Reliance, which operates the world's largest oil refining complex at Jamnagar in Gujarat -- tapped non-Persian Gulf suppliers to replace barrels lost due to the conflict, according to an investor presentation the company made post fourth quarter earnings announcement. "Persian Gulf loading contracts were replaced to minimize run cut," it said. "Crude sourcing diversified from multiple geographies." Reliance said it "worked with Middle East suppliers on alternative routing for stranded crude." It, however, did not elaborate. Global crude markets remained largely oversupplied through most of the 2025-26 fiscal year, even as sanctions by the US and EU on Russian oil tightened .

No windfall tax on diesel, ATF exports from Reliance SEZ refinery

The reimposed windfall export taxes on diesel and aviation turbine fuel (ATF) will not apply to Reliance Industries Ltd's SEZ refinery due to judicial rulings, a senior official said on Thursday. Effective March 26, the government revised fuel levies, reintroducing export duties of Rs 21.50 per litre on diesel and Rs 29.50 per litre on ATF, while keeping petrol exports exempt. The move coincided with a Rs 10 per litre cut in excise duty on petrol and diesel. Initially, it was not clear if exports from Reliance's special economic zone (SEZ) refinery - one of the largest contributors to India's refined product exports - would retain exemptions similar to those under the 2022 windfall tax regime. "As per judicial prouncements on this issue, the special additional excise duty and additional excise duty are not applicable on SEZ refineries," Jainendra Singh Kandhari, Joint Secretary in the Tax Research Unit (TRU-1) of the Department of Revenue, said at a media briefing. The government .

'Reliance SEZ export duty clarity key under govt's fuel tax overhaul'

The applicability of newly reimposed export windfall taxes on shipments of diesel and ATF from Reliance Industries' SEZ refinery remains the key uncertainty, following India's fuel duty overhaul, with significant implications for refining margins and government revenues, according to analysts. Under the revised framework, effective March 26, India has imposed export duties of Rs 21.50 per litre on diesel and Rs 29.50 per litre on aviation turbine fuel (ATF) while keeping petrol exports exempt. This came alongside a Rs 10 per litre cut in excise duty on petrol and diesel. However, it is not yet clear whether exports from Reliance's special economic zone (SEZ) refinery, which accounted for a large share of India's refined product exports, will continue to enjoy exemptions, as they did under the 2022 windfall tax regime, UK's Investec said in a note. Reliance owns and operates two refineries at Jamnagar in Gujarat - a 33 million tonnes per year unit catering to the domestic market and
