Reliance dividend 2026

Beyond the quarterly scorecard, during the April 24 meeting, the board will also recommend a dividend on equity shares of the company for the financial year ended March 31, 2026. 

Looking at RIL’s dividend history, it doled out a final dividend of Rs 5.50 per share on August 14, 2025. This followed previous final payouts of Rs 10 on August 19, 2024, Rs 9 on August 21, 2023, and Rs 8 on August 18, 2022.

RIL earnings expectations

According to a latest preview note by Systematix Institutional Equities, Reliance is expected to post a steady quarter. The brokerage estimated RIL's consolidated revenue to grow by approximately 8% year-on-year to Rs 2.82 lakh crore. 

Meanwhile, consolidated EBITDA is expected to climb 8.5% year-on-year to Rs 47,600 crore, it said. However, the brokerage estimated the net profit at Rs 19,217 crore, marking a 1% decline from the same period last year.

“Jio’s revenue is likely to grow ~2.5% QoQ, driven by a ~0.6% increase in subscriber base along with a ~1% sequential improvement in ARPU to ~Rs216,” the brokerage said.

PL Capital pointed out that  RIL's standalone EBITDA is expected to take a sequential hit, dropping to Rs 14,150 crore. This is driven by "higher freight costs due to disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz, elevated gas costs from lower availability for captive use, and weak petchem spreads".

PL Capital expects Jio's EBITDA to rise 3.3% quarter-on-quarter, fueled by steady subscriber additions and a 1.% sequential increase in Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) to Rs 215.8. The brokerage anticipates retail EBITDA to remain somewhat under pressure at around Rs 6,870 crore, a 5.6% year-on-year growth.
