According to Deven Choksey of KRChoksey, Q3FY22 will be a better quarter for Reliance as he expects good numbers from oil to chemical (O2C), Jio and retail businesses.

“O2C business remains the growth driver as far as this particular quarter is concerned and it could possibly surprise on the margins as well. The Jio platform has two key drivers, one is the smartphone that they have launched and second is the fibre connectivity. Retail business with better footfalls and better amount of realisations is expected to show remarkably better performance in this quarter,” he said.

“Any surprise on Jio will be positive especially on the subscriber addition front because that is the key number to watch out for,” he said.
