Reliance Industries share price fell as much as 2.5% on 16 Oct 2026, with analysts naming Rs 1,160 as support and Rs 1,230 as resistance. The Jio Platforms issue of up to 27 crore fresh shares at Rs 1,065 to Rs 1,119 (Rs 28,755 crore to Rs 30,213 crore) is open for subscription from 21 to 23 Oct. Live data I checked at 11:41 am showed a low of Rs 1,193, a fall of 1.8%, so the 2.5% figure is unverified. Educational, not advice.<\/em><\/p>\n

Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Reliance Industries share price fell as much as 2.5% on Friday 16 October 2026 as investors weighed the Jio Platforms issue, which raises Rs 28,755 crore to Rs 30,213 crore from 21 to 23 October. Analysts named Rs 1,160 as support and Rs 1,230 as resistance, and at 11:41 am the stock traded near Rs 1,210.60, about 25% below its 52-week high of Rs 1,611.80. Reliance owns 66.43% of Jio Platforms, so the listing can show the value of that stake, but a holding company discount and the size of the issue are risks. A shareholder who has not yet held the stock cannot use the shareholder quota, as the cut-off was 14 October, so buy Reliance Industries only if you want the whole group.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Reliance Industries is India’s largest company by market value, and the Reliance Industries share price has fallen more than 20% in 2026 while the Jio listing approaches. The Reliance Industries share price had risen about 3% on Thursday after the price band was set, so Friday’s drop reverses part of that move (my calculation from the 14 and 15 October closes).<\/p>\n

This guide explains the Reliance Industries share price move, the Jio Platforms issue terms, the support and resistance levels, the shareholder quota rules, the value of the Jio stake and the risks. It is educational and not a recommendation to buy or sell.<\/p>\n
