Dear All,
Energy giant Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) on Friday reported a 12.5% increase in consolidated net profit for the quarter ended September, helped by a strong performance by its refining business, and said its telecom venture was poised to turn profitable shortly.
RIL’s group-level profit rose to Rs8,109 crore in the fiscal second quarter from Rs7,209 crore a year earlier. Consolidated revenue from operations rose to Rs95,085 crore from Rs81,651 crore a year earlier.
A Bloomberg poll of four analysts had estimated consolidated net profit at Rs8,263.3 crore. A poll of three analysts had expected net sales at Rs85,785.3 crore.
Revenue was higher than forecasted because Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd, the telecom venture, started charging for its services in the quarter. The unit, whose launch in September last year with free voice and data services has disrupted the telecom industry, made a profit at the earnings before interest and tax (Ebit) level even though it ended up with a net loss of Rs271 crore.
The telecom unit reported revenue of Rs 6,147 crore and Ebit of Rs 260 crore. The company said it had added 15.3 million users during the three months to September, taking its total subscriber base to 136.8 million.
Jio also reported average revenue per user (ARPU) of Rs156.4 per subscriber per month. For comparison’s sake, market leader Bharti Airtel Ltd reported ARPU of Rs154 for the June quarter. Jio also claimed average voice traffic of 2.67 billion minutes a day and a low customer churn of 1% per month. This is the first time RIL is reporting Jio’s numbers.
Macro Data
The Street will continue to monitor the macroeconomic data, which could set the tone for the market. Globally, trends have been on the positive side in the past few sessions, which have been responsible to drive up markets, including India. Back, home, the Street will be watching out for wholesale inflation that will be released next week.
Globally, Europe and China will be declaring data on the inflation front, CPI inflation that could keep investors on the fence ahead of that along with GDP from China later in the week. Additionally, the US would also declare data on industrial production and housing trend, among others.
F&O data :-
On Friday, put OI of 71.54 lakh contracts was seen at strike price 10,000, which will act as a crucial base for the index in October series, followed by 9,900, which now holds 55.48 lakh contracts and 9,800 which has now accumulated 53.13 lakh contracts in open interest.
Meanwhile, maximum Call open interest (OI) of 39.89 lakh contracts stands at strike price 10,200, which will act as a crucial resistance level for the index in the October series, followed by 10,000, which now holds 31.66 lakh contracts in open interest, and 10,300, which has accumulated 28.89 lakh contracts in OI.
Global Cues :-
Positive global cues, apart from good macro data back home, drove up the markets in the past few sessions. US markets were at a record high, while markets in Europe and Asia too were on the higher side with some bouts of profit booking.
Geopolitical tensions due to North Korean crisis may keep investors cautious. The rogue nation on Friday raised the threat to launch a ballistic missile toward the US Pacific territory of Guam. It still hasn't followed through on another threat: to conduct an atmospheric hydrogen bomb test.
The new Guam threat comes ahead of planned US-South Korean joint maritime exercises scheduled to start next week in the Asia-Pacific region. A Navy statement issued Thursday indicated exercises will include the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan and at least two destroyer vessels.
FII Data :-
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold shares worth Rs 1,698.5 crore, while domestic institutional investors bought shares worth Rs 1,590.13 crore in the Indian equity market on Friday.
As far as monthly trends are concerned, FIIs have been net sellers, but support has been visible from domestic institutional investors. As of October 13, FIIs have net sold Rs 6,476.58 crore worth of shares, while DIIs purchased Rs 7,050.10 crore.
