Reliance Industries Share Price in Focus as FMCG Arm Raises Authorised Capital to ₹40,000 Crore

Reliance Industries has increased the authorised share capital of its FMCG business, Reliance Consumer Products Limited (RCPL), from ₹10,000 crore to ₹40,000 crore, as per The Economic Times news report. The company has also raised its borrowing and investment limits as it expands its consumer goods business. 

RCPL, which sells Campa Cola and the Independence range of food products, said the higher authorised capital will allow it to issue more shares to meet its future funding needs. 

Borrowing Limit Increased to ₹27,000 Crore 

RCPL has tripled its borrowing limit from ₹9,000 crore to ₹27,000 crore to meet its growing funding requirements. 

It has also doubled the limit for investments in and loans to other companies to ₹4,000 crore. The higher limits will give RCPL more room to raise funds and invest in its FMCG operations. 

RCPL Becomes a Direct Reliance Subsidiary 

In December 2025, RCPL increased its authorised share capital to ₹10,000 crore as part of a restructuring of Reliance's FMCG business. 

Following the restructuring, the consumer products business became a direct subsidiary of Reliance Industries instead of Reliance Retail Ventures. RCPL has now increased its authorised share capital again to ₹40,000 crore. 

RCPL Reports ₹7,042 Crore Total Income 

RCPL reported total income of ₹7,042 crore and a net loss of ₹125 crore for the period from December 2025 to March 2026. 

In its latest filings, the company said it expects both sales value and volumes to grow during FY27 and the following years. 

The company has also extended the tenure of three executive directors, T Krishnakumar, Ketan Mody, and Asim Parekh, by five years until 2030.
