LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

History

Subject was originally incorporated on 8^th May 1973 in Karnataka State as a Public Limited Company under the name and style of “Mynylon Limited”.

A company by name of Reliance Industries Private Limited was incorporated in Maharashtra on 11^th February 1967 and was converted into a Public Limited Company on 28^th June 1985 and with effect from 1^st July 1975 Reliance Textile Industries Limited was amalgamated with Mynylon Limited. The name of Mynylon was then changed to Reliance Textile Industries Limited with effect from 11^th March 1977. Due to diversification, name of the company subsequently changed to the present. Its Company Registration Number is 19786.

Incorporated as Reliance Refineries Private Limited in September, 1991, Reliance Petroleum Limited got its’ name in April, 1993. It was promoted by the company. The company came out with a Rs. 86160 millions public issue of triple-option convertible debentures in September, 1993, to part-finance a Rs. 51420 millions grssroot refinery at Jamnagar, Gujarat. Reliance Petroleum Limited enjoys the support of 2 millions international, domestic, institutional and retail shareholders. This is the second largest investor base in the Indian corporate sector next only to the company.

The company has grown into petrochemical major since its modest beginning with a synthetic fabric mill at Naroda. The company has set up texturising / twisting facilities in 1979. Further the company has set up facility at Patalganga, Maharashtra to produce PFY in 1982, PSF in 1986, a linear alkyl benzene (LAB) and a PTA in 1988. The company has technical collaboration for PFY and PSF with DuPont, USA and for PTA with UOP processors, US and ICI, UK.

Subject has setup a petrochemical facility to produce HDPE and PVC at Hazira, Gujarat in technical collaboration with Dupont and BF Goodrich respectively. The Hazira petrochemical plant was commissioned in 1991-92. Its operations capture value addition at every stage from producing crude oil and gas to polyester and polymer products and are vertically integrated to the production of textiles. It operates world’s largest grassroot, multi-fed crackers at its Hazira petrochemical complex.

In 1991-92, the company commissioned a petrochemicals unit to manufacture HDPE and PVC at Hazira, Gujarat, in technical collaboration with Dupont and BF Goodrich respectively. In 1995-96, it entered the telecom industry through a joint venture with Nynex, USA.

In 1995-96, it entered the telecom industry through a joint venture with Nynex, US. Subject entered this industry by promoting Reliance Telecom Limited. It provides cellular services using GSM Standard.

In December 2002, it entered into mobile servicing by promoting Reliance Infocomm Limited. The services are being launched in 3 phases, wherein the first phase it has trigged mobile revolution and in the second phase an enterprise netway revolution and in the final phase it will launch a consumer convergence revolution. The total capex planned by subject for Reliance info has been estimated at Rs. 1,80,000 millions.

It has obtained ISO 9002 certification from BVQI for its Patalganga and Hazira Complexes. It is the first private sector company in India to be rated by the international credit rating agencies.

The company completed its integrated Jamnagar complex during 1999-2000, the company completed its integrated Jamnagar Complex, in a record period of less then 3 years. The Jamnagar Complex Houses the world's largest Grassroot Refinery (under Subsidiary company Reliance Petroleum), paraxylene and polypropylene project with the capacity of 27 million tonnes, 1.4 million tonnes and 6,00,000 tonnes per annum respectively together with country's largest all weather port, power plants and all related infrastructure.

It has also acquired control over the polyster manufacturing facilities of four relatively large polyster producers over the last two years. This has enhanced the effective production capacity in polyester by nearly 200000 tonnes per annum to 800000 tonnes per annum. It was ranked the second largest producer of POY and PSF in the world, and the largest polyster manufacturer in India, with a market share of 51%.

The company is the largest producer of polymers in the country with a market share of 52%. The company’s capacity is nearly a million tonnes per year of polypropylene (PP), 400000 tonnes per year of polyethylene (PE) and 300000 tonnes per year of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). In April 2001, the company successfully completed the first phase of comprehensive restructuring plant for its textiles business located at Naroda, near Ahmedabad in the state of Gujarat which presently contributes 1% of company’ total revenues.

The company has acquired management control of BSES. The acquisition was routed through the company and Reliance Power Ventures Limited, made an open offer to the shareholders for BSES Limited to acquire 32,281,460 equity shares of BSES Limited. After completion of open offer, the equity stake of company in BSES has increased to over 58%, thus making BSES a subsidiary of company. Subsequently the name of the company has been changed to Reliance Energy Limited.

In November 2001, the company sold its just over 10% equity stake in Larsen & Toubro, the second largest player in the cement industry, to Grasim Industries for Rs. 7665 millions. The divestment of the L & T stake is in consonance with its declared objectives of unlocking value from its investments, in the interests of maximizing overall shareholder value.

During the year 2000-01, the company was, in a 90:10 consortium with Niko Resources of Canada, awarded 12 new exploration blocks by the government through a process of competitive international bidding. These 12 blocks cover a wide range of geological settings, spanning shallow and deep waters. Together with the 2 blocks awarded to the company in the earlier rounds of bidding, this has made the company the country's largest E&P (exploration and production) player in the private sector, with an exploration acreage of 1,05,765 sq. km. of both, the east coast and west coast of India.

In March 2002, the Board approved the proposal for amalgamation of Reliance Petroleum Limited (RPL) with the Company. The proposed Scheme of Amalgamation was approved by shareholders of both companies and the effective date for the merger was fixed on September 19, 2002. The exchange ratio will be of 1 share of the company for every 11 shares of Reliance Petroleum Limited held. The merger of RPL with the company represents the largest ever merger in India, creating the country’s largest private sector company on all financial parameters.

The disinvestment process of Government of India has given an opportunity for the company acquire the second largest petrochemical company India i.e. IPCL. The company has picked 26% stake from Government of India and acquired another 20% from public through an open offer.

Reliance Industries, the flagship company of Reliance Group has business interests in textiles, polyster, petrochemicals, oils and Gas and oil refining.

In an another strategic move the company has acquired IPCL, a leading public sector undertaking the, second largest petrochemical company in India. The company has acquired 26% stake in IPCL held by Government of India through an open offer and transparent process of global competitive bidding. Subsequently under the regulations, the company acquired further 20% equity stake in IPCL through an open offer to the public, thereby increasing its stake in the company to 46%. The total consideration for the successful bid was Rs. 14910 millions (US$ 303 millions) at Rs. 231 per share for acquiring the 25% stake. The total investment made by the company for acquiring the IPCL stake, including the open offer to the public was Rs. 26380 millions.

The company’s PP production unit crosses 1 million MT in 2001-02 and EDC manufacturing facility at Hazira was commissioned. It also plans to open new offices in Indonesia and Turkey and it has established overseas offices in China, UAE and Vietnam. The company was planning to increase the capacity of PET from 80000 tonnes per year to 300000 tonnes per year through the building of the world’s first plant based on Dupont’s revolunationary NG-3 technology. The new plant will be located alongside at Hazira. The expansion project was expected to be completed in the financial year 2003-04.

Structure and Strategy

Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) is the largest private sector business enterprise in India, on all major financial parameters, including sales, profits, net worth and assets. RIL's operations capture value addition at every stage, from the production of crude oil and gas to polyester, polymer and chemical products, and finally to the production of textiles. RIL is the only company globally to achieve this degree of vertical integration and value addition.

RIL operates mainly in India but has business activities and customers in more than 100 countries around the world. RIL has production facilities at three major locations in India and a further four locations in Europe. RIL also has exploration and production interests in India, Yemen and Oman.

RIL is organized into three major business segments which include: Exploration and Production of oil and gas; Refining and Marketing of petroleum products; and Petrochemicals, including the manufacturing and marketing of polymers, polyester, polyester intermediates and chemicals. The Refining & Marketing and Petrochemicals segment accounted for 98 per cent of RIL's revenues for the year ended March 31, 2006. The E&P business is expected to become a significant contributor in terms of revenues and profits starting from the next couple of years.

RIL's strategy is to build and sustain leadership position across its product categories in the domestic markets, pursue attractive export opportunities, implement vertical integration, access cutting-edge technologies, achieve economies of scale, focus on prudent financial management and invest in high growth opportunities. The primary route for growth adopted by RIL has been through creating businesses and facilities in an organic manner. RIL has grown by setting up world scale, world class projects, scaling them up to meet local and global demand, investing in R&D to develop future prospects and markets, and developing a large pool of qualified and skilled manpower. RIL has also grown through selective acquisitions that ensure greater synergy with its operations.

RIL is India's first private sector company in the Exploration and Production (E&P) sector to have discovered large gas reserves. The E&P strategy of RIL is aimed at further enhancing the level of vertical integration in its energy business, and realising value across the entire energy chain, while fulfilling important national priorities. In the years to come, RIL is well positioned to be amongst the largest value creators in the upstream oil and gas sector.

In the Petrochemicals and Refining business, RIL's strategy is to continuously strive for global leadership and endeavour to be amongst the lowest cost producers worldwide. Alongside, RIL will continue to invest in research, quality, safety and environment and thereby set new benchmarks in the industry. In these businesses RIL will also pursue inorganic growth opportunities, which are strategic to its intents and have the potential to create greater value for its shareholders.

In the petroleum retail marketing business, RIL continues to grow its focused and differentiated offers. RIL operates in petroleum retail markets where it can create a competitive edge from supply positions, superior customer offers and efficiency across the value chain. The Indian consumer has already recognized the value proposition offered by RIL in retailing of petroleum products.

Going forward RIL will make strategic decisions with regard to the emergingbusinesses that it is seeding today. These include:

* Identifying new businesses with high growth potential.

* Investing in businesses that can scale rapidly and generate superior returns over an extendable period of time.

* Create a differentiated business model and aspire to be lowest cost manufacturer/ service provider, which shall ultimately result in gaining dominant market leadership.

The new businesses will aim to generate superior return on capital employed, which shall eventually enhance the overall returns.

RIL will continue its business strategy of building and creating value for all its stakeholders in both its existing and new businesses. RIL will be India's pre-eminent global corporation in terms of size, scale, portfolio diversification and value creation.

Overview - FY 2005-06

Landmark Events

The year 2005-06 was a landmark year in the history of RIL. It marked a new strategic decision to unlock value for its shareholders by reorganizing RIL's business through a process of demerger. In this process, RIL's investments in power generation and distribution, financial services and telecommunication services were demerged in to separate entities and RIL's shareholders received shares in the new entities in the same proportion of their equity holdings in RIL. The successful implementation of the largest demerger process in Indian corporate history has demonstrated RIL's ability to seed new businesses, gain leadership in each of these businesses which are large enough to be independent and thereby create value for RIL's shareholders.

During the year, RIL commenced the setting up of a new export-oriented refinery through its subsidiary, Reliance Petroleum Limited (RPL). The refinery will have a total atmospheric distillation capacity of approximately 580,000 barrels per stream day with a Nelson Complexity of 14.0 and an integrated polypropylene plant with a capacity of 0.9 Million TPA. The capital cost of the RPL project is estimated at Rs 27,0000.000 Millions (approximately US$ 6 billion). RPL expects to commission the refinery and the polypropylene plant in and around December 2008. RPL recently completed its US$ 1.2 billion Initial Public Offering of equity shares which received an overwhelming response across different classes of investors and are now listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange and The National Stock Exchange. RIL holds 75 per cent in RPL and has invested Rs 6,7500.000 Millions as equity contribution in RPL.

RIL's business performance and strong capital structure were duly recognized through an upward re-rating of its borrowings by international credit rating agencies, namely Moodys' and Standard & Poor. RIL is now rated above India's sovereign rating and is at Baa2 (Moodys') and BBB (S&P).

RIL announced the closure of the buyback of equity shares with effect from August 2, 2005. This was pursuant to the programme achieving its key objective of ensuring a positive impact on the stock price thereby contributing towards maximization of overall shareholder value. Under the scheme, RIL purchased 2.86 million shares from the open market valued at Rs 149.610.000 Millions (US$ 34 million) which have since been extinguished prior to April, 2005.

Operational Excellence

RIL put together another outstanding performance in a year that was marked by several global challenges.

Crude prices remained firm throughout the year and ranged between US$ 55 per barrel to US$ 70 per barrel. A combination of strong global economic performance and heightened political uncertainties were the significant contributors towards the high price of crude. Despite the higher oil prices in the last couple of years, global oil demand continues to be robust. The forecast from the International Energy Agency is for a demand growth of 1.25 million barrels per day for 2006, this is estimated to be higher than 1.05 million barrels per day for 2005.

The global refining system continues to be stretched, the pace of new capacity creation continues to be slow, and the light/heavy crude oil price differential continues to widen. A combination of these three factors augurs well for globally competitive complex refineries like RIL's existing refinery at Jamnagar and the new refinery being set up by RPL.

RIL's refining business continued to show a superior performance over the benchmarked refining margins. Since the commissioning of the refinery, its gross refining margin has been between US$ 2 to US$ 4 per barrel higher compared to Singapore complex refining margins. For FY 2005-06, RIL had the highest ever gross refining margin at US$ 10.3 per barrel and more importantly a spread of US$ 5.8 per barrel over the Singapore complex margin for the last quarter of the year. Apart from operating efficiencies and optimal capacity utilization, the principal differentiator between RIL's refinery and other global refineries has been its ability to take advantage of the light/heavy crude price differential.

RIL's refinery undertook a maintenance shutdown in October - November 2005 during which it also implemented a Value Maximisation Programme (VMP), which will help in enhancing margins and creating further value on a sustainable basis. The Nelson complexity of the refinery improved from 9.9 to 11.3 as a result of implementation of the VMP.

RIL continued its rollout of the petroleum retail outlets by adding 867 new outlets taking the total number of outlets to 1,218 at the end of the financial year. The response from these outlets continues to be very encouraging in terms of consumer acceptance and growing market share.

As regards RIL's petrochemicals business, operating rates of ethylene crackers globally continued to be high on the back of sustained demand and lack of new capacities getting commissioned. RIL continues to be very well positioned on the cost curve among the naphtha-based Asian crackers with operating rates at 100 per cent and among the lowest cost crackers in this region. Margins however were affected by high crude oil and natural gas prices leading to increase in cost of raw material.

RIL strengthened its global position in this business by adding a new butadiene facility during the year with a capacity of 140,000 TPA.

The margins for the polyester business improved significantly during the year. Key contributors towards these were lower intermediate price and rising cotton prices. Another significant development was the changes in the duty structure announced in the Union Budget this year which makes polyester more competitive as compared to cotton. The excise duty on polyester was reduced to 8 per cent from earlier level of 16 per cent and this is expected to lead to substantial growth of the polyester industry. RIL is very close to completing one of the largest expansion in polyester capacity in the world by adding 550,000 TPA of new polyester capacity.

In the E&P business, RIL was awarded a further five blocks under NELP-V, which brings up the portfolio to 41 blocks including two in Panna-Mukta & Tapti and five blocks of coal bed methane. In addition to its domestic portfolio, RIL has two overseas blocks, one each in Yemen and Oman. RIL signed a Technical Evaluation Agreement with ANH (Columbia's hydrocarbon regulator) and also entered into a cooperation agreement with Ecopetrol (National Oil Company of Columbia) for farm-in opportunities in that country.

RIL continues its efforts in developing its significant gas discovery at the Krishna Godavari Basin. Key contractors and suppliers for the KGD6 block have been appointed and front-end engineering for the offshore facility has been completed. Detailed engineering and placement of orders for all long-lead items are expected to be completed shortly. RIL continuesto be well on track for its phase-I of commercial production in FY 2008-09.

RIL is building a strong E&P portfolio, starting with increased production in its existing Panna-Mukta & Tapti blocks, and commercializing KGD6 and other blocks in the next 3-5 years.

Business Review

Exploration and Production

Globally, the E&P industry registered a record growth during the year, primarily due to spiraling crude oil and gas prices. With growing competition and ever growing demand for energy, especially from developing countries, the focus is on energy security.

India's share is a meagre 0.5 per cent of global oil reserves of 1,189 billion bbl, while it consumes 3.2 per cent of global oil consumption every year. Oil imports of US$ 43.8 billion were around one third of India's total import bill during the year 2005-06 as compared to US$ 29.8 billion during the previous year on account of both higher prices and volumes.

During the year, the domestic crude oil and gas production in India was at 32.2 Million MT and 1,137 Billion Cubic Feet. The growing demand for crude oil and gas in the country and policy initiative of Government of India towards increased E&P activity, have given a great impetus to the Indian E&P industry raising hopes of increased exploration. Under the New Exploration Licensing Policy (NELP) of Government of India 110 blocks have been acquired by various E&P companies for exploration. The efforts have resulted in a number of oil and gas discoveries in India and have changed the perception and prospects of the Indian sedimentary basins and the focus on Indian E&P Industry.

RIL is the largest exploration acreage holder among the Private sector companies in India with 34 domestic exploration blocks covering an area of about 331,000 sq. km. This is in addition to its interest in one exploration block each in Yemen and Oman. RIL also has 5 coal bed methane (CBM) blocks covering an area of about 4,000 sq. km. During the year, RIL signed a Co-operation Agreement with Ecopetrol of Columbia for farm-in opportunities in Columbia.

RIL's portfolio of E&P assets, gives it the potential to create value across entire value chain from wellhead to burner tip. Accretion of new reserves through exploration, development of existing oil and gas reserves and development of related downstream infrastructure facilities would result in significant value creation for RIL in future. RIL has achieved a high success rate of 74 per cent in terms of discoveries made from the wells drilled thus far, excluding wells under evaluation

Its operations capture value addition at every stage from producing crude oil and gas to polyester and polymer products and are vertically integrated to the production of textiles. Reliance has one of the largest marketing networks in Indian industry. All its brands are market leaders

The originally envisaged capacity was substantially enhanced while implementing the project and it commissioned its 27 mmtpa refinery (540000 ballers per day) within a very short period of less then 36 months at a project cost of Rs. 142500 millions (US $ 3.4 bn). The company is the world's largest grassroots refinery and the seventh largest refinery in the world at any single site. The refinery has been set up at 30%-50% lower per tonne capital cost as competed to other refineries recently set up in Asia, by leading international oil companies, establishing new benchmark for capital productivity. It also has a remarkable ability to use almost any kind of crude oil. The company's products have been exported to a large number of destinations in the Far East, Europe and the USA, including to Japan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, China, Greece and Italy. This reflects the fact that the company's products meet the most stringent international environment and quality specifications. In line with the governments oil sector policies, the company is currently selling the five controlled products, namely, LPG, Gasoline, Aviation Fuel, Kerosene and Diesel, to the public sector oil companies, IOC, HPCL and BPCL to the extent required by the Government. The Oil Coordination Committee determines the price realization for the company's controlled products, based on the principle of import parity the company has already applied for marketing rights for the controlled products, as it meets all the criteria specified in this regard by the Government, as per the Gazette Notification of November 1997. As soon as the marketing of controlled products is decontrolled, the company will make appropriate arrangements for the same. The company is also making investments in pipeline projects, to facilitate distribution of petroleum products across the country, in a seamless and cost-efficient manner. The company holds a 13% stake in Petronet V.K. Limited, which owns the 113-km, long Vadinar-Kandla pipeline. This pipeline links the company’s refinery to the Kandla-Bhatinda pipeline, providing access to the high growth north and north-west markets.

The setting up of the Central India pipeline project, which envisages setting up a 1615-km pipeline to serve the landlocked markets in central India, has been approved by the government. The company will hold a 26% stake in the joint venture implementing this project. The company will also hold a 10% stake in Petronet India Limited, the holding company set up for the creation of pipeline infrastructure for evacuations of petroleum products all over India.

The company has passed a resolution to sponsor a depository receipt Programme enabling shareholders of the company (Reliance Industries) to partially disinvest their equity shareholding in the company at an appropriate time in the course of an international offering in one or more trances to strategic investors, financial investors and any other investor in the form of depository receipts and any other financial instruments subject to necessary approvals.

The company will focus on its high value-added product ranges of men's wear, under the Vimal brand, and home textiles, under the Harmony brand. Other textile products, including women's wear products, will be phased out, and the polyester filament yarn processing business will be re-located.

The first phase of restructuring will lead to a reduction of over 4,600 people from the company's total workforce, at an estimated one-time outlay of Rs. 900.00 millions, in an amicable manner within a span of two weeks

It has increased its stake in equity share capital of BSES, an electric utility company, through open offer to 27%. Further it has announced the largest share buy back of Rs. 1,1000 millions at a maximum price of Rs. 303/- per share. The company proposes to invest Rs. 2,50,000 millions over the next 3 to 5 years in the telecom sector covering basic, cellular, long distance, international, voice, data services by setting up a broadband network throughout India.

Vacon Plc, Press Release, April 28, 2005.

Reliance Industries chooses Vacon AC drives for polymerization lines. In close cooperation with its Indian partner Hi-Rel Electronics Pvt Ltd, Vacon will deliver 270 AC drives to Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL), the largest polyester yarn and polyester staple fibre manufacturer in India with a dominant market position.

To further increase the manufacturing capacity of polyester yarn (also known as Partially Oriented Yarn, POY) and Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF), RIL is expanding their polymerization line processes at the Hazira and Patalganga plants. The 270 Vacon AC drives will control a connected load in excess of 20 MW of the continuous polymerization processes and utilities. At the Hazira plant, the Vacon AC drives will control the continuous polymerization lines for polyester yarn and polyester staple fibre, both lines with the production capacity of 600 tons a day. At their Patalganga plant, the Vacon AC drives will control the continuous polymerization line for polyester yarn producing 250 tons a day.

Over the next two years, RIL will be building an additional half a million tonnes per year of polyester capacity by investing in a 240,000 tonnes per year polyester staple fibre plant at Hazira, 216,000 tonnes per year polyester filament yarn plant at Hazira, and 94,000 tonnes per year polyester filament yarn plant at Patalganga. With the commissioning of these plants, Reliance Industries Ltd will almost double its current capacity and become the world’s largest producer of polyester.

Speed control brings energy savings and improves reliability

In controlling the speed of the motors according to need, Vacon AC drives bring several benefits. In addition to energy savings, speed control improves process control and decreased electromechanical stress for the electrical system. The extended lifetime of the mechanics also means lower maintenance and repair costs.

In cooperation with Hi-Rel Electronics, Vacon has developed redundant control systems for the most critical drives. Redundancy is vital to the quality of the product as any trip would result in substantial loss of first grade material and production volumes resulting from time lost in restarting the whole process.

Vacon Group was founded in 1993 for one purpose only: to create, develop and pro-vide AC drives worldwide. Ambitious to meet the most demanding needs of clients seeking top performance, easiness and reliability, Vacon offers AC drives in the power range of 0.25 kW...3 MW. In 2004, the Group revenues totalled EUR 128.6 million.

Financial Review

Operating profit, before other income, was Rs. 7,2780.000 Millions (US$ 1,653 million), against Rs. 5,9750.000 Millions for the corresponding previous period, an increase of 22%

The company's net operating margin was lower during the period at 18.9% mainly due to significant increase in price of crude oil during the half-year, which was not fully absorbed in domestic price of petroleum products.

Other income decreased to Rs. 4160.000 Millions (US$ 94 million), from Rs. 6430.000 Millions on account of the company exercising its option to convert the Preference shares of Reliance Infocomm Limited with effect from 1st April 2005. This was partially offset by higher interest income from current investments and fixed deposits.

Interest expenditure decreased 49% to Rs. 4580.000 Millions (US$ 104 million) due to appreciation of the rupee and reduction in debt.

Depreciation was at Rs. 1,5950.000 Millions (US$ 362 million) as against Rs. 1,8300.000 Millions for the corresponding previous period. The decrease is on account of assets sold during 2004-05 and impact of WDV depreciation on petrochemical assets

The outflow on account of capital expenditure was over Rs. 4,2000.000 Millions (US$ 954 million), primarily on account of oil and gas, petrochemical capacity expansions and normal capital expenditure.

Business Review

Oil & Gas (E&P)

RIL's oil and gas strategy is aimed at further enhancing the level of vertical integration in its energy business, and capturing value across the entire energy chain, while fulfilling important national priorities.

RIL is the largest exploration acreage holder among the Private sector companies in India with 34 domestic exploration blocks covering an area of about 340,000 sqkm. This is in addition to its interest in one exploration block each in Yemen and Oman. Reliance also has 5 coal bed methane blocks covering an area of about 4000 sqkm.

12 exploration blocks were awarded under the 1st round of the New Exploration Licensing Policy (NELP-I) of Government of India, 4 blocks in NELP II, 9 blocks in NELP III and 1 block in NELP IV. Reliance has been awarded 5 more exploration blocks under the just concluded NELP V. The Production Sharing Contract has been signed and application for exploration license has been submitted.

The Company and various partners, including ONGC Ltd. and Oil India Ltd., were awarded two exploration blocks prior to NELP. The Company has also acquired the operating rights of four exploration blocks from Tullow Oil plc, a UK Company.

Three blocks out of the above-awarded blocks have been relinquished as the expected deposits were found to be sub-economic.

In the Yemen onshore block where Reliance had oil discoveries, the development plan has been approved by Ministry of Yemen. Further exploration activity is also under progress and results are quite encouraging.

In the Oman offshore block, where RIL is the Operator, the existing seismic data has been collected and contract for reprocessing of data is being finalized.

During the quarter, processing and interpretation of acquired data have been taken up in an accelerated manner.

Building on the giant Dhirubhai gas discovery, Reliance continued with the exploratory drilling campaign in the discovery block KG-DWN-98/3 in the Krishna Godavari Basin. First Development well was spud and drilling operations are in progress. Detailed evaluation drilled wells are in progress.

The contract for development is slated to be awarded in calendar Q1-06.

The exploration in the CBM block of RIL is also progressing as per plan.

Reliance has deployed state-of-the-art technology, and is working with leading international technology and service providers for the E&P project, covering all activities, such as seismic studies, processing and interpretation of data and drilling.

RIL also holds a 30% interest in an unincorporated Joint Venture with British Gas and ONGC, to develop the proven Panna-Mukta and Tapti oil & gas fields. British Gas has a 30% share and ONGC the balance 40% share.

The Panna-Mukta fields produced 725,340 tonnes of crude oil and 22.32 billion cubic feet (632 MMSCM) of gas during the half year under report.

The Tapti field produced 40.46 billion cubic feet of gas (1,145 MMSCM) during the half year under report.

Refining & Marketing (R&M)

During the period under report, the domestic demand for petroleum products reduced by 0.6% compared to first half of last year. This is against 5.5% growth last year compared to the corresponding previous period.

The consumption of HSD, which accounts for more than a third of the total consumption of petroleum products, registered a negative growth of 0.6%, against a growth of 8.8% during the corresponding previous period. LPG demand showed significantly lower growth of 0.8% against 13.8% growth during the corresponding previous period. Demand for MS grew by 4.3%. The demand of Aviation turbine fuel grew by 14.7% during the half year. Naphtha sales fell by 11.2% and Kerosene sales increased slightly by 0.8%.

The average prices of WTI, Brent and Dubai for the half year period were $ 58.1 per barrel, $ 56.7 per barrel and $ 51.7 per barrel respectively while the peak prices were $ 69.9 per barrel, $ 67.3 and $ 59.2 per barrel respectively.

The global refining industry in general and the US refining industry in particular was dramatically influenced by the two hurricanes, Katrina and Rita that hit US Gulf coast on 29th August & 24th September respectively. US Gulf coast is the major hub for US refining with total capacity of about 4.7 mn b/d or 27.5% of US capacity. Almost all of this closed during 2 hurricanes. Reportedly as of end Sep '05 3.1 mn b/d capacity still remains closed.

International Energy Agency revised down its global oil demand growth forecast for 2005 to 1.26 million b/d, due to regional economic and logistical disruptions as well as retail price spikes in US due to Katrina and Rita and weaker outlook for China but has maintained a demand growth forecast of 1.75 million b/d for 2006.

The refinery margins were robust in all the regions as product price increases were higher than the concomitant rise in crude oil prices.

During the period under report, Reliance recorded 96% capacity utilisation at its Jamnagar Refinery. The refinery processed 15.87 million tons of crude during the half year.

This capacity utilisation compares favourably with the utilisation rates for other refineries, both in India and abroad, at 91% for North America, 87% for Europe, and 89% for Asia Pacific region.

Exports of refining products during the period under review were 5.2 million tons, compared to 4.8 million tons in the corresponding period last year.

The implementation of setting up of Retail Outlets at various locations is in full swing. Reliance already has the necessary approvals for setting up 5,849 retail outlets in India.

As on date, over 850 outlets are operational. The response from these retail outlets is encouraging as the throughput per outlet is higher than the industry norms. By the end of March 2006, Reliance will have significant presence in the retailing of transportation fuels. Reliance will continue to set new standards for services and product quality through its retail outlets. This will help improve margins, overall return on capital and consequently, shareholder value.
