    HDFC Securities's research report on Reliance Industries

    RIL’s  standalone  numbers  continued  to  impress,  led  by higher Petchem volumes and margins. Petchem production volumes were up 10% QoQ and 42% YoY to  8.8  mT  owing  to  ROGC  ramp up. EBIT/kg of sales volumes stood at Rs 17.87/kg (Rs 17/kg in 3Q, 13.2/kg in 4QFY17). EBIT margin was up 356bps YoY to  17.2%.  Q4  EBITDA  came  in at Rs 134.25bn (+19% YoY). Higher interest cost, depreciation charges and taxes partially offset growth, and PAT stood at Rs 86.97bn (+6.7% YoY).
