What Goldman Sachs anticipates for RIL?
Goldman Sachs anticipates that RIL’s consolidated returns will be at an inflection point in the financial year 2024. The firm also highlighted a shift in RIL’s investment focus towards less capital-intensive ventures such as Retail and New Energy.
Projecting major growth in Reliance Retail’s Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), Goldman Sachs said that it could nearly double between financial year 2024 and 2027, with a corresponding increase in consolidated EBITDA.
The brokerage firm also foresees a turnaround in free cash flow by financial year 2025 as it expects capital expenditure to peak in the preceding financial year and predicted a 20% year-on-year expansion in EBITDA, owing to factors including a telecom tariff hike, higher retail same-store sales growth, and improved chemical margins.
