what happened

New Delhi, Oct. 12. Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) shares have lost 6% in a month amid selling pressure ahead of the Jio Platforms IPO. Mint reports that market experts see the decline as an opportunity to buy RIL shares at a price close to Jio Platforms’ IPO band of Rs.1,065 to Rs.1,119 per share and potentially benefit from value unlocking.

However, Jio Platforms shares are not guaranteed to be distributed to all RIL shareholders. Experts consider the planned IPO a key factor for Reliance Industries, although its impact is not necessarily negative. Sentiment has weakened after reports valued Jio Platforms at approximately $114 billion, or around Rs.10.3 lakh crore, below earlier speculative estimates of $130 billion to $170 billion.

According to the experts, Rs.1,200 remains a hurdle for Reliance Industries shares. A break above that level could allow the stock to move toward around Rs.1,265.
