Reliance Industries Q4 PAT decline was primarily driven by the Oil-to-Chemicals (O2C) and upstream Oil &amp; Gas segments, which faced significant headwinds from the West Asia conflict escalation, crude price volatility, and refinery margin compression.<\/p><p>Despite the quarterly PAT decline, Reliance Industries Q4 is capped by a historic FY26 full-year milestone: RIL became the first Indian company to cross $10 billion in annual profit, with FY26 consolidated PAT of \u20b995,610 crore, up 18.3% year-on-year. Reliance Industries Q4 revenue from operations rose a strong 12.9% YoY to \u20b92,98,621 crore, driven by Jio Platforms and Reliance Retail. Reliance Industries Q4 board recommended a final dividend of \u20b96 per equity share (face value \u20b910) for FY26.<\/p><p>Reliance Industries Q4 consumer businesses provided the critical cushion: Jio Platforms delivered PAT of \u20b97,935 crore (+13% YoY) with ARPU rising to \u20b9214\/month, while Reliance Retail revenue climbed 11% to \u20b987,344 crore with 20,160 stores. Reliance Industries Q4 Jio 5G subscriber base reached 268 million (total: 524 million). The Jio IPO was hinted to be advancing, with Mukesh Ambani flagging &#8220;mid-2026&#8221; as the projected timeline.<\/p><div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy
