Reliance is a diversified group now and its more focused now on Retail and digital services (JIO) and partially setoff the pressure and margin of Refining and Petrochemical business. The current growth of Retail and Digital services business is excellent and Reliance has overtaken to Airtel and Vodafone Idea as now No.1 Telecom Company in India on a subscription base as well as revenue base also. As 5G is under process and more looking into digital media space the growth is evitable.
