(RIL IN, Mkt Cap USD98.9b, CMP INR1149, TP INR1479, 29% Upside, Buy)
Reliance Industries’ (RIL) 2QFY19 standalone EBITDA increased 15% YoY (-2% QoQ) to INR149b, below our estimate of INR163b, due to lower-than-expected refining throughput and GRM. GRM stood at USD9.5/bbl (our estimate: USD10.2/bbl) and throughput at 17.7mmt (our estimate: 18.0mmt). Standalone PAT grew 7% YoY (flat QoQ) to INR88.6b (our estimate: INR93.3b). Consolidated EBITDA of INR211b (+36% YoY, +2% QoQ) was in line with our estimate, driven primarily by a better-than-expected retail operational performance. Consolidated PBT (+16% YoY, -4% QoQ) was 8% lower than our estimate due to higher interest cost and lower other income. Consolidated PAT stood at INR95.5b (our estimate: INR100.5; +18% YoY, +1% QoQ).
