Reliance Industries Share Price in Focus After Change in Subsidiary Structure of Reliance Enterprise Intelligence

Reliance Industries Limited has announced a change in the ownership structure of Reliance Enterprise Intelligence Limited following a fresh equity allotment involving group entities and an overseas investor. 

The development alters the subsidiary status within the group while marking continued expansion of Reliance’s digital and technology-focused initiatives through strategic shareholding participation.

Equity Allotment Alters Subsidiary Status

Reliance Industries informed exchanges that Reliance Enterprise Intelligence Limited (REIL), earlier a step-down wholly owned subsidiary, has now become a step-down subsidiary of the company.

The change follows the allotment of new equity shares by REIL to existing and external investors.

The company received formal intimation regarding the allotment on February 25, 2026.

Details of the Share Allotment

REIL allotted a total of 85.31 crore equity shares with a face value of ₹10 each at par value. Of these:

• 59.66 crore shares were issued to Reliance Intelligence Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Reliance Industries.
• 25.65 crore shares were allotted to Facebook Overseas, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Meta Platforms, Inc.

Following the transaction, Reliance Intelligence holds a 70% stake in REIL, while Facebook Overseas owns the remaining 30%.

Change in Ownership Classification

As a result of the revised shareholding structure, REIL has ceased to be a wholly owned step-down subsidiary. However, it continues to remain a step-down subsidiary within the Reliance Industries group due to majority ownership through Reliance Intelligence.

The company clarified that all necessary approvals for the investment were obtained prior to completion of the transaction.

Transaction Governance and Compliance

Reliance Industries stated that the investment involving Facebook Overseas is not classified as a related party transaction. The allotment made to Reliance Intelligence qualifies as a related party transaction but has been executed on an arm’s length basis.

The company further confirmed that no promoter or promoter group entity has any direct interest in the transaction beyond disclosed shareholding arrangements.
