Reliance Industries (RIL) has emerged as the number one company in terms of revenue in the Fortune India 500 list for 2019, pipping Indian Oil Corporation (IOC). RIL revenues crossed Rs 5.81 trillion in FY19 against IOC’s Rs 5.36 trillion. 

Since it was first published in 2010, IOC has been topping the list. 

RIL’s race to the top was powered by consumer-facing businesses like organised retail and telecom.

In terms of profits too, Mukesh Ambani-led RIL’s FY19 net profit was ahead at Rs 39,588 crore against IOC’s Rs 17,377 crore. 

Over the past 10 years, RIL’s profit has been an average 3.01 times higher
