Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) will hold its 46th annual general meeting (AGM) for the shareholders on Monday. This will be televised live through videoconferencing and other audio-visual means.
Announcing the date and time of the Reliance AGM 2923, the company had earlier said in a regulatory filing, "This is to inform that the Forty-sixth Annual General Meeting (Post-lPO) of the Members of the Company will be held on Monday, August 28, 2023, at 2:00 pm (IST) through Video Conferencing (VC) / Other Audio-Visual Means (OAVM), in accordance with the applicable circulars issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and the Securities and Exchange Board of India."
Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries, will address the shareholders and talk about the company's past performance and further plans.
The Reliance AGM 2023 is important as it comes just one week after the listing of Jio Financial Services on the Indian bourses. The stock has not performed well. Since its listing on August 21 at Rs 264 apiece, the share price has fallen 20 per cent to Rs 212.25.
The investors will be keen to know the company's plans and other insights into the business of JFSL. Last week, the exclusion of JFSL shares from Sensex and other indices was postponed to September 1.
