RELIANCE India's No. 1 Business Group Founded as a textile mill in 1966 by Dhirubhai H. Ambani, the Chairman of the Reliance group, Reliance continued to be a textile company until early 1980s. However, seizing the opportunities emanating from the growing Indian economy as well as the opening up of the regulation-driven sectors of the economy such as petrochemicals, plastics etc., Reliance pursued the policy of backward integration from textiles as well as diversification from the early 1980s onwards to set up world-scale facilities for manufacturing polyester and textile intermediates, plastics and polymer intermediates, detergent intermediates etc. Diversified business interests Reliance group's business activities encompass all major growth sectors of the Indian economy: - Oil & gas exploration - Refining & marketing - Petrochemicals including intermediates - Textiles - Power - Telecom - Information & Communication - Insurance - Financial services and so on Market leader in India Reliance holds leading major market shares for all its major products in India Polyesters (Filament Yarn, Staple Fibre and Resin) 51 % Fibre Intermediates (Purified Terephthalic Acid, Mono Ethylene Glycol, P-Xylene) 78 % Polymers (Polyethylene, Polyproplene, PVC) 48 % India's largest exporter During the year, Reliance's exports, including deemed exports, increased to Rs 11,510 crore (US$ 2,424 million), from Rs 11,200 crore in the previous year, recording an annual growth of 3 per cent.
