We request your ballot. FY21 has been a landmark year for Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL). The new-age Retail and Digital businesses flourished despite the COVID-led disruption, led by the emergence of RIL’s disruptive and aggressive growth philosophy. As a result, this cushioned the impact on the overall business and provided the much needed capital raise and deleveraging. RIL’s Fossil Fuels business struggled with a 37% decline in EBITDA in FY21. However, the Retail biz, partially supported by the Online Retail and Digital businesses, came in much stronger, arresting the decline to just 9% on a consolidated basis to INR807b. RIL managed to raise INR2.6t in capital through an asset monetization and rights issue. We delve into the company’s Annual Report, highlighting the key initiatives and business outlooks for the various segments. Digital Services At a time when most businesses were adversely impacted on account of COVID-19, RJio’s revenue/EBITDA grew 29%/43% in FY21, led by a strong 38m subscriber additions and 6% ARPU improvement. The exponential data growth seen in the past year further vindicated the product power and the importance of telecom services/players in a consolidated market. Stock Info The company turned FCF-positive, led by improving EBITDA and reducing capex Bloomberg RIL IN intensity, and ROEs edged up further. Nevertheless, the ROEs remain in single Equity Shares (m) 6,339 digits, underscoring weak monetization and the need for tariff hikes.

Valuation and view RJIO: RJio plans to accelerate growth through JioPhone, Enterprise Data, and other digital avenues via the recent spate of launches, coupled with new digital app offerings. Thus, we assign an EV/EBITDA multiple of 20x on FY23 EBITDA, with TP of INR847/share (for its 66% stake). The higher multiple captures the digital revenue opportunity, potential tariff hikes, and opportunity in the Feature Phone market (not built into our estimates). Retail: We value Reliance Retail’s core business at 35x FY23E EV/EBITDA and assign 4x to Connectivity, arriving at TP of INR755 – after excluding the recent 10% stake sale. Our premium valuation multiples capture the accelerated growth in new store openings, digital commerce, and the new JioMart platform. O2C: Vaccination drives appear to be gaining momentum the world over, with large economies such as the US and India inoculating more than 4m daily. This is expected to soon revive demand for transportation fuels, thus boosting GRMs. Since the company has stopped disclosing GRMs separately, we build in EBITDA of USD107/134/mt for FY22/FY23E (vis-à-vis USD73–84/mt reported over 3Q– 4QFY21) – on the back of improvement in refining and petchem margins. Using SOTP, we value the O2C business at FY23E EV/EBITDA of 7.5x, arriving at a valuation of INR764/share for the standalone business, and add INR68 for the E&P assets. We ascribe an equity valuation of a) INR847/share to RJio on FY23E 20x EV/EBITDA and b) INR755/share to Reliance Retail on FY23E 35x EV/EBITDA, factoring in the recent stake sale.

The revenue decline was partially offset by growth in the Digital biz. Standalone revenue was down 24% to INR2,789b in FY21, with contribution reducing from 55% to 52% as O2C revenue declined 29% to INR3,200b. Retail revenue declined 6% to INR1,538b despite the sharper impact seen in Discretionary categories such as Fashion and Apparel and Consumer Durables, which faced store closures. However, the launch of the online portal JioMart – which reported sales in Grocery and other categories – cushioned the impact. Digital revenue was up 30% to INR903b. The combined revenue contribution from Digital and Retail increased from 35% to 45%. Consolidated EBITDA was down 4.6% YoY to INR976b as O2C was impacted by pandemic-related demand destruction. However, this was cushioned by Retail EBITDA declining just 2% to INR98b. Digital EBITDA was up 46% to INR340b. The combined EBITDA contribution from Digital and Retail increased from 32% to 45%. Rise in networth The consolidated networth rose to INR6.9t (from INR4.4t), primarily led by retained earnings, a rights issue, and equity issuances by subsidiaries. The standalone networth rose to INR4.7t in FY21 (from INR3.9t), primarily led by retained earnings as well as a rights issue.
