Management’s Discussion and Analysis Report

Management’s Discussion and Analysis report for the year under review, asstipulated under Clause 49 of the Listing Agreement with the Stock Exchanges in India, ispresented in a separate section forming part of the Annual Report.

The Company has entered into various joint ventures, partnerships and contracts in thearea of oil and gas, refining and petrochemicals businesses. While benefits from suchcontracts will accrue in future years, their progress is periodically monitored.

In line with its aspirations of ongoing growth, Reliance is investing its resources incore business across the integrated energy chain. While doing so, the Company is alsotaking the initiative of investing in new technologies and businesses that help meetchanging aspirations of millions of Indian consumers. These strategies and initiatives areaimed at ensuring that Reliance delivers long-term sustainable growth and createsunprecedented value for all its stakeholders.

Some of the major events of the year include the following:

• RIL-BP alliance: RIL has entered into a strategic partnership with BP and signedthe relationship framework and transactional agreements. The partnership across the fullvalue chain comprises BP taking a 30% stake in 23 oil and gas production sharing contractsthat Reliance operates in India, including the producing KG-D6 block. The two companieswill also form a 50:50 joint venture for the sourcing and marketing of gas in India andwill endeavour to accelerate the creation of infrastructure for receiving, transportingand marketing of natural gas in India. BP will pay an aggregate consideration of $ 7.2billion for the interests to be acquired in the 23 production sharing contracts. Futureperformance payments of up to $ 1.8 billion could be paid based on exploration successthat results in development of commercial discoveries.

• Shale gas joint ventures: During the year, the Company, through itssubsidiaries, in the United States of America entered into three distinctive joint ventureagreements with Atlas Energy, Pioneer Natural Resources and Carrizo Oil & Gas andacquired 40%, 45% and 60% interests, respectively in the shale gas acreage positions to beexplored by these joint ventures. The net Shale acreage acquisition by Reliance is3,12,430 acres. It also entered in to a separate joint venture with Pioneer NaturalResources aimed at addressing the mid-stream opportunity in gas evacuation andtransportation.

• Joint venture for Butyl Rubber production in India: During the year, RIL andRussia’s SIBUR announced a joint venture for the setting up of a facility forproducing 100,000 MT butyl rubber in India. This is a significant step towardsReliance’s commitment to service India’s growing automotive sector by bringingin complex technologies, available with only a very few companies globally. The setting upof domestic manufacturing of butyl rubber which is expected to be commissioned by 2013,will fulfill a longstanding demand of the Indian tyre and rubber industry.

• Spearheading the knowledge revolution: During the year, RIL acquired asubstantial stake in

Infotel Broadband Services Limited (Infotel Broadband), which emerged as a successfulbidder in all the 22 circles of the auction for Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) Spectrumconducted by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT). RIL owns 95% of the equity sharecapital of Infotel Broadband. RIL sees the broadband opportunity as a new frontier ofknowledge economy in which it is confident of taking leadership position and providingIndia with an opportunity to be in the forefront among the countries providing world-class4G network and services.

• Others:

The Honorable Supreme Court of India delivered its judgment in the Reliance NaturalResources Limited (RNRL) - RIL dispute. The judgment recognized the dominant role of theprovisions of the Production Sharing Contract and upheld the policies formulated by theGovernment under which it has the authority to regulate the production and distribution ofnatural gas. RIL and RNRL signed a Gas Supply Master Agreement in compliance with the GasUtilization Policy and EGoM decisions. RIL and Reliance ADA Group companies approved andsigned an agreement canceling all existing non-compete arrangements entered into betweenthe two groups pursuant to the scheme of reorganization of the Reliance Group and enteredinto a new simpler, non-compete agreement with respect to gas based power generation.
