Ambani aims to make RIL a top 10 global giant

New Delhi: Having created businesses ranging from world’s largest single-location oil refining complex to nation’s largest mobile network operators in just few years, billionaire Mukesh Ambani says his group Reliance Industries Ltd will never be complacent and will grow to be among the top 10 business conglomerates of the world.

Addressing employees on Reliance Family Day - the birthday of the group’s founder Dhirubhai Ambani, he said Reliance is now aiming to consolidate a place among global leaders in digital data platforms and AI adoption. “Today, the domestic and global environments for business are changing very fast. There is simply no room for complacency,” he said. “Reliance was never complacent in the past, and Reliance will never be complacent in future.” Reliance, he said, is known for “disrupting the market through constant innovation and reinvention.”

Starting with a small textile manufacturing unit in Mumbai, Reliance did backward integration -- it ventured into petrochemicals (which provide feedstock for textiles) and became the nation’s largest producer.
