据ICIS-MRC网站5月25日莫斯科报道，据路透社报道，印度信实工业(Reliance Industries)表示，由于石化和零售业务的反弹，其季度利润增长了一倍，但由于成本上升了10%，未能达到分析师的预期。
亿万富翁穆凯什·安巴尼领导的这家石油-电信集团表示，截至3月31日的三个月里，该集团的综合利润增长了108%，达到1322.7亿卢比(合17.9亿美元)。根据Refinitiv的数据，分析师的平均预期为1349.1亿卢比。
信实的石油化工部门是其炼油和石化业务的总部，其第一季度收入增长了4.5%。这家总部位于孟买的公司受益于聚氯乙烯(PVC)塑料等全球石化产品被压抑的需求，因为在2020年冠状病毒疫情爆发后，商业活动开始复苏。
近年来，信实在电信和零售领域建立了领先业务，以实现业务多元化，不再依赖其主要的能源部门。能源部门一直在从冠状病毒引发的需求低迷中缓慢复苏。该公司称，由于消费者购买了更多的杂货和服装，旗下超过1.2万家商店和超市的零售业务收入增长了20%，这两类业务的收入创下了历史新高。尽管如此，该公司表示，印度正在进行的大规模第二波疫情爆发已经导致许多城市封锁，影响了商店的客流量和消费者信心。

Reliance profit doubles due to petrochemicals rebound
India's Reliance Industries (RIL) said its quarterly profit doubled, led by a rebound in its petrochemicals and retail businesses, but fell short of analysts' estimates as costs jumped 10%, reported Reuters.
The oil-to-telecoms conglomerate, led by billionaire Mukesh Ambani, said consolidated profit climbed 108% to 132.27 billion rupees (USD1.79 billion) in the three months to March 31. Analysts on average had expected 134.91 billion rupees, according to Refinitiv data.
Revenue at Reliance's oil-to-chemicals unit - home to both its refining and petrochemicals operations - rose 4.5% in the March quarter. The Mumbai-headquartered company benefited from pent-up demand globally for petrochemical products like polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics, as business activity began to pick up after a coronavirus-hit 2020.
Reliance has built leading businesses in telecom and retail in recent years to diversify away from its mainstay energy arm, which has been recovering slowly from a coronavirus-driven slump in demand. Its retail business of more than 12,000 stores and supermarkets posted a 20% jump in revenue as shoppers bought more groceries and apparel, resulting in all-time high revenues in those two categories, Reliance said. Still, India's ongoing massive second wave of the virus, which has spurred lockdowns in many cities, had hit footfalls at stores as well as consumer sentiment, it said.
