India's Reliance Industries Q1 net profit down 11.6%
AFP - Saturday, July 25
MUMBAI (AFP) - - India's largest private sector firm Reliance Industries reported Friday that first-quarter net profit fell 11.6 percent as refining margins halved.

The oil and petrochemical giant said net profit slipped to 36.3 billion rupees (75 million dollars) in the three months to June 30 from 41.1 billion rupees in the same period a year earlier.
Sales slid 23 percent to 320.5 billion rupees.
The results were below market expectations. Analysts had forecast Reliance would report a profit of close to 39 billion rupees.
Reliance's gross refining margins halved to 7.5 dollars a barrel for the June quarter from 15.7 dollars a year earlier while refining and marketing revenues fell by 22.7 percent to 251 billion rupees (5.22 billion dollars).
During the quarter, Reliance began gas production from the Krishna Godavari (KG) D6 block. KG D6 is amongst the five largest deep water gas projects in the world.
"Timely completion with safe and stable start up of the new SEZ refinery and the deep-water, oil and gas KG D6 block are noteworthy accomplishments (in the quarter)," said Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani in a statement.
"These projects will help change the energy landscape of India and the industry globally," he said.
Reliance has the largest private sector exploration acreage in India.
