Commenting on the results, Mukesh D. Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director, Reliance
Industries Limited said: RILs financial performance for the period stands testimony to the
intrinsic strength of our integrated business operations. The refining and petrochemical businesses,
once again, delivered robust results, outperforming regional industry benchmarks. Renewed
optimism in the domestic economy augurs well for business and consumer confidence particularly
against the backdrop of continuing concerns on global economic growth. We expect to create
significant value for our stakeholders over the next 12-18 months as we complete our large
investment programme across energy and consumer businesses. These projects will propel the
next phase of growth for India and Reliance.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE REVIEW AND ANALYSIS (CONSOLIDATED)
RIL achieved a turnover of ` 113,396 crore ($ 18.4 billion) for the quarter ended 30
th
September
2014, decrease of 4.3 %, as compared to ` 118,439 crore in the corresponding period of the
previous year. Lower crude prices and volumes mainly in the refining and oil & gas business
accounted for decrease in revenue. Exports from India were lower by 14.7% at ` 66,065 crore ($
10.7 billion) as against ` 77,428 crore in the corresponding period of the previous year.

Cost of raw materials was lower by 12.9% from ` 93,933 crore to ` 81,815 crore ($ 13.2 billion) on
Y-o-Y basis mainly on weaker crude oil prices, lower crude processed in refinery and lower
blending and trading activity in USA during 2Q FY15.

Employee costs were at ` 1,575 crore ($ 255 million) as against ` 1,409 crore in corresponding
period of the previous year.

Other expenditure increased by 19.8% on a Y-o-Y basis from ` 8,063 crore to ` 9,660 crore
($ 1.6 billion) primarily due to higher expenses on account of power and fuel. Consolidation of
Network 18 Media & Investments Limited from this quarter has also impacted Y-o-Y comparisons.
The increase of power and fuel is on account of lower usage of internal fuels which were utilized for
value optimization.

and oil and gas business.

Other income was lower at ` 2,009 crore ($ 325 million) as against ` 2,346 crore in corresponding
period of the previous year, primarily on account of lower investible surplus.

Depreciation (including depletion and amortization) was higher by 8.2% to ` 3,024 crore ($ 490
million) as compared to ` 2,796 crore in corresponding period of the previous year.

Interest cost was at ` 997 crore ($ 161 million) as against ` 959 crore in corresponding period of the
previous year.

2Q FY15 revenue from the Refining and Marketing segment decreased by 5.9% Y-o-Y to ` 103,590
crore ($ 16.8 billion) due to softness in crude oil prices and lower crude processing. RILs gross
refining margins (GRM) for the quarter stood at $ 8.3/bbl as against $ 7.7/bbl in the corresponding
period of the previous year. RILs premium over regional benchmark widened to $ 3.5/bbl, as
compared to $ 2.5/bbl in the corresponding period of the previous year, primarily aided by wider
crude differentials and sourcing advantage. EBIT for the quarter was up by 18.5 % Y-o-Y at ` 3,844
crore which was led by higher GRM despite lower crude throughput.

Singapore complex refining margin softened on Y-o-Y basis, to $4.8/bbl compared to $5.2/bbl in the
same quarter last year, primarily due to weakness in middle distillates cracks. On a Q-o-Q basis,
Singapore GRM showed significant weakness from $5.8/bbl in 1Q FY15, due to weak gasoline and
gasoil cracks. This quarter was also characterized by fall in crude prices amid lower demand
growth, supply recovery in Libya and continued production ramp-up in USA.

During the quarter, RIL J amnagar refineries processed 17.3 MMT of crude at an average utilization
of 112%. In comparison, average utilization rates for refineries globally during the same period were
89.1% in North America, 78.9% in Europe and 84% in Asia. In North America, utilization improved
this quarter compared to the same quarter last year, as Gulf Coast margins improved.

RILs exports of refined products from India reached $ 9.4 billion during the quarter as compared to
$ 11.1 billion in 2Q FY14. In terms of volume, exports of refined products were 10.7 MMT during 2Q
FY15 as compared to 12 MMT in 2Q FY14. This was primarily on account of higher domestic sales
to PSUs.

Asian gasoil cracks averaged $14.4/bbl during the quarter as against $17.3/bbl during the same
period last year and $16.0/bbl in the previous quarter. The continuing weakness in Chinese demand
and Indian demand due to price adjustments and monsoon impact resulted in lower cracks. Cracks
were also impacted by steady ramp-up of Middle East supplies.

Naphtha cracks in Asia were significantly up as compared to same period last year but fell on a
Q-o-Q basis. Naphtha demand was sequentially lower as crackers in the region underwent
maintenance and new condensate splitters started up in the regions. Like naphtha, gasoline cracks
were better compared to same quarter last year ($13.2/bbl vs. $12.4/bbl) but fell as compared to
previous quarter ($16.1/bbl). On a Y-o-Y, cracks fared better mainly due to higher Indian and
Chinese demand growth and due to fall in crude prices. On a Q-o-Q basis, gasoline cracks have
slid down on seasonal decline in demand.

Fuel oil cracks gained on Y-o-Y (-$10.5/bbl vs. -$12.9/bbl) and Q-o-Q basis. Lower prices in
absolute terms led to increased demand especially from J apan, Bangladesh and Pakistan. The
improved demand coupled with lower crude prices led cracks higher, though lower demand from
Chinese teakettle refineries tempered the gains.

Crude costs were favourable as Arab Light Arab Heavy crude differential remained firm at $
4.8/bbl, as compared to $ 3.8/bbl in the same period last year and $ 4.9/bbl in the previous trailing
quarter. Strengthening of gasoline margins supported lighter crude and softness in middle distillates
and bottom of the barrel justified the weakness in heavy barrels, thus widening the differentials as
compared to last year. Brent-Dubai crude differentials narrowed sharply to $ 0.4/bbl from $ 4.0/bbl
in the same quarter last year and $ 3.5/bbl in the previous trailing quarter. A combination of wide

2Q FY15 revenue from the Petrochemicals segment declined marginally Y-o-Y to ` 26,651 crore ($ 4.3
billion). EBIT for the quarter remained flat at ` 2,361 crore on Y-o-Y basis. However, on a Q-o-Q basis
EBIT increased sharply by 26.7%, led by strong rebound in polymers, fibre intermediates and aromatics
margins.

Polymer & Cracker Sector:

During 1H FY15, Indian polymer demand was higher by 4.9%. During 1H FY15, PP demand grew 4.7%
Y-o-Y with improved demand from the film packaging, thermoforming, automotive and appliances
sector. PE demand was higher by 5.6% due to good demand from moulded products (i.e. FMCG,
Pharma and Food packaging) and paper/woven sacks lamination packaging sector. PVC domestic
demand was higher by 4.1%.

Weakening crude oil prices resulted in soft naphtha price environment, improving deltas for all key
polymers. Ethylene deltas were close to all-time highs with large planned and unplanned outages in
most regions. Polymer prices were stable to higher on sequential quarter basis. On Q-o-Q basis, overall
product margin environment remained strong. PP deltas improved by 11.3% to $ 257/MT as propylene
prices continue to fall on increased supplies in Asia and moderate demand in some of the downstream
sectors. PE delta improved by 12% to $ 682/MT as PE prices were stable while feedstock naphtha

prices were softening on weakening crude oil prices. PVC margins were higher by 9.4% at $ 455/MT as
feedstock EDC prices were soft.

For the quarter, RILs polymer production during was stable at 1.1 MMT. RIL continues to maintain its
leadership position in the domestic market.

Elastomers

Butadiene prices were volatile though they remained at low levels ($1300 $1500 / MT) as new
capacities came online and demand reduced from synthetic rubber and ABS sectors in Asia. Volatility
was primarily on account of shutdowns, which tightened supplies at certain times. The price was also
driven down by a negative trend in the downstream synthetic rubber industry led by reducing natural
rubber prices.

RIL has stabilized operations of its new swing 40 KTA capacity PBR plant at Hazira, having capability to
produce Nickel and Neodymium grade PBR. With the addition of new facility, RILs total PBR capacity
stands at 114 KTPA. The product from the new plant has successfully been placed in the market after
due approvals from the end-users. Local availability of additional PBR has helped domestic rubber
industry to reduce their dependence on imports. Indian auto sector has seen growth for 5 successive
months since May 2014. The uptrend in automobile industry is expected to have a positive impact on
synthetic rubber consumption in India.

RILs new Emulsion SBR plant at Hazira is likely commence operations soon. The plant has capacity to
produce 150 KTPA of emulsion SBR rubber that will include dry as well as oil extended grades. RIL
would have the largest plant in India and will reaffirm its leadership position in synthetic rubbers in
Indian market. After commissioning of RILs SBR plant, India is likely to become self-sufficient in SBR
production, reducing import dependence.

Aromatics and Polyester Chain

Polyester markets were mostly influenced by Chinese downstream demand and cotton policy. Demand
remained tepid early in the quarter, but saw revival only as winter demand emerged. Strength in fibre

intermediates impacted polyester downstream deltas during the quarter. Global PET markets were not
encouraging with the peak consumption season coming to end in major markets, except the Middle
East. PET margins were stable Y-o-Y but significantly lower than previous quarter.

Domestic demand for polyester remained stable with 1H FY15 volumes growing 3% Y-o-Y. FDY firmed
up during the quarter with good demand from warp knitting and the start of the peak seasonal demand.

Market sentiments in the polyester chain continues to remain weak. Average prices were marginally
higher on Q-o-Q basis across the chain.

PX markets started the quarter with many shutdowns continuing from the previous quarter. This along
with curtailed productions managed to keep prices and margins higher. Regional PX deltas rebounded
to an average of $ 437/MT, up 40% Q-o-Q. However, contract prices remained unsettled throughout.
Towards the end of the quarter, slipping demand and imminent capacity additions led price and margin
declines.

Asian Benzene prices declined towards the end of the quarter, amidst lower prices in US markets. With
new Asian benzene capacity coinciding with softer demand coming from China, Asian benzene sellers
have been regarding the US as a necessary export outlet. Margins however remained healthy
supported by low naphtha prices, averaging the quarter higher both on Q-o-Q and Y-o-Y.

PTA markets continued to reel under the pressure of oversupply. Formula based pricing linked to PX
helped producers manage some price gains, which also helped to resurrect margins. Prices for the
quarter were higher sequentially, but were lower on Y-o-Y basis. India imposed provisional anti-dumping
duty on China, Korea, Thailand and EU during the quarter.

MEG markets were mostly influenced by the polyester and co-feedstock PTA markets. Inventory in
Chinese coastal tanks declined but overall remained high. MEG deltas improved sharply by 17% on Q-
o-Q basis with weakness in naphtha prices.

RIL polyester production increased 16% during 1H FY15 as a result of increase in PFY volumes at
Silvassa.

BCF of natural gas in 2Q FY15. Fall in production is mainly due to natural decline in the fields partly
offset by incremental production from new well MA08 and side track in well MA6H during the
previous year.

encountered in the Eastern segment of MJ discovery area.
o Conceptual Engineering Study is underway.

D1-D3 Enhanced Gas Recovery activities:
o Various type of well intervention jobs have been planned in the wells shut in due to
water ingress. These are highly complex operations, having a low success rate and
with hardly any analogues available in deep-water fields. Initial interventions (water
shut off jobs) have not met expectations. However, revival actions in these wells post
commissioning of Onshore Terminal Booster Compressor are being considered.
o Booster compressor at Onshore Terminal:
2 Compressors and Gas Turbine package installed on foundation. Construction
activity underway.
Working towards commissioning 2 compressors during 1H 2015.


Panna Mukta and Tapti
Production update:
Panna-Mukta fields produced 1.8 million barrels of crude oil and 16.5 BCF of natural gas in 2Q
FY15. The increase in production was on account of additional volumes from new well including
infills drilled during Q3/Q4 FY14 coupled with revival of shut in wells.

Tapti fields produced 0.06 million barrels of condensate and 4 BCF of natural gas in 2Q FY15. The
Tapti field is in natural decline.

CBM
Significant progress made in the Phase 1 of development activities in two CBM blocks, Sohagpur
East and Sohagpur West for achieving first gas by 2H 2015.

Review of US Shale Operations (2Q FY15)
Reliances Shale Gas business registered strong revenue and EBITDA growth over the
corresponding quarter of FY14, though sequential growth was impacted by lower pricing and higher
gas differentials. Marcellus J V production remained restricted below potential due to frac operations
in offset wells and midstream maintenance activities as well as forced shut-in at times to prevent
lower realization. Natural Gas differentials remained high and were a key challenge, especially in
the NE region that was impacted by warmer weather and continued strong growth in supplies from
Marcellus producers. Sequential softening of benchmark gas prices also impacted realization during

the quarter. While revenue growth suffered sequentially, EBITDA remained steady at 1Q FY15
levels benefiting from lower opex across all J Vs. Continued strong performance of Eagle Ford J V
provided strong base for current quarter performance.

Gross J V production averaged at ~1.2 Bcfe/day reflecting growth of 3% sequentially and 38% over
corresponding quarter of FY14. New production records achieved at Pioneer and Chevron J Vs
supported by continuous hooking up of wells and continued strong well performance in the J Vs.

Pioneer J V continued on liquid focused development in Eagle Ford. Gross J V production averaged
at 704Mmcfe/d, including ~68,200bbl/d of condensate. Production at Chevron J V continued its
growth trajectory at 346Mmcfe/d, while market conditions forced temporary curtailment in
production at Carrizo J V that recorded 18% sequential drop in average production rates at
143Mmcfe/d during the quarter.

Overall capex for the quarter was at $321 million and cumulative investment across all J Vs stood at
$7.7 billion. Substantial part of Pioneer and Carrizo J V capex are met through cash from respective
J V operations. Chevron J V continued to account for most of the ongoing capex and funding needs.

Significant progress on several ongoing value creation initiatives were made during the quarter.
Pioneer J V has adopted lower cost 2-string casing design for its new wells and concepts of
completion optimization and down spacing are successfully implemented. Chevron has started
implementing higher intensity well completion to further improve the resource base. All three J Vs
are actively implementing opex reduction initiatives. Reliances shale gas remains focused on high-
grading of development activities and improving costs and efficiencies towards creating value.
