Reliance Consumer Products Ltd (RCPL) has raised its authorised share capital to ₹10,000 crore, as per filings made with the Registrar of Companies (RoC).
The increase follows recent changes in the way Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) has organised its fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) business. Earlier, RCPL’s authorised share capital stood at ₹100 crore.
The company stated that the higher limit has been approved to allow future share issuances and to meet funding requirements.
According to the filing, the authorised share capital now includes 6 billion equity shares of ₹10 each and 4 billion preference shares of ₹10 each. The company has not indicated when these shares may be issued.
RCPL said the revised structure has been created to accommodate proposed allotments of equity shares and to support funding needs as the business expands.
The capital increase comes after a restructuring that took effect from December 1. RCPL, which earlier operated under Reliance Retail Ventures Ltd (RRVL), is now a direct subsidiary of Reliance Industries.
As part of the process, the FMCG entity within RRVL was merged into the retail holding company. The combined consumer brands business was then separated and transferred to RCPL. Retail store operations continue to remain under RRVL.
RCPL’s ownership structure broadly follows that of RRVL. Reliance Industries holds 83.56% in RRVL, while the remaining stake is owned by 9 overseas investors, including Silver Lake, KKR and Mubadala.
Before the restructuring, most FMCG brand acquisitions and investments were carried out through RRVL, rather than through RCPL.
RCPL reported revenue from operations of ₹1,301 crore in FY25, along with a net profit of ₹9 crore, according to its balance sheet.
At the group level, Reliance Industries reported FMCG sales of ₹11,450 crore during the year. A significant part of this revenue had earlier been recorded in the retail segment.
During the July-September quarter, the FMCG business reported sales of ₹5,400 crore. RCPL has also acquired a majority stake in Udhaiyam’s Agro Foods and brought back older brands such as SIL jams and sauces.

Reliance has announced plans to add manufacturing capacity for its FMCG business. The group has signed agreements to set up factories and food parks, with a total proposed investment of about ₹40,000 crore.
As of December 22, 2025, 10:32 am, Reliance Industries share price was trading at ₹1,572, a 0.44% increase from the previous closing price.
The increase in RCPL’s authorised share capital follows the reorganisation of Reliance’s FMCG operations and provides additional room for funding under the revised structure.
