Jio Platforms initial public offering (IPO) papers to be filed with Sebi soon
Company plans to build India’s AI infrastructure around its Jamnagar campus
Reliance Industries unveiled an ambitious growth roadmap focusing on digital services, artificial intelligence (AI), clean energy, retail, healthcare and education at its 49th Annual General Meeting (AGM) on June 19, 2026. The company also announced the much-awaited initial public offering (IPO) of Jio Platforms at the meeting.
RIL chairman Mukesh Ambani confirmed that the company’s board has approved the draft papers for the initial public offering (IPO) of Jio Platforms, paving the way for one of India’s biggest public listings. The draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) for the issue will be filed soon with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), he said, marking a major milestone in Reliance’s plan to unlock value from its digital business.
AI was another major focus of the AGM. Ambani announced that Reliance Intelligence, the conglomerate’s AI initiative, has moved into the execution phase. The company plans to build India’s AI infrastructure around its Jamnagar campus, with AI services designed to operate in 22 Indian languages. As part of this strategy, the MyJio app will evolve into a personal AI assistant, while new AI-powered platforms, such as JioTeleFrame and JioStar GenAI Media Studio will support content creation, commerce and digital experiences.
Akash Ambani outlined Jio’s next phase of growth, highlighting the investments in digital infrastructure, satellite connectivity and AI-enabled services. The company aims to strengthen its position across connectivity, cloud computing and enterprise solutions, while expanding access to advanced digital technologies for consumers and businesses.
Reliance also reiterated its commitment to becoming a key player in clean energy. The company said work was progressing at the Kutch Renewable Energy Hub and the Jamnagar Giga Complex, where solar modules, battery storage systems and green hydrogen technologies are being developed. Reliance also announced a partnership with Samsung C&T for green ammonia initiatives, underscoring its ambition to build an integrated new energy ecosystem capable of serving both domestic and global markets.
In the consumer business, Reliance Retail shared plans to deepen its manufacturing footprint in apparel and affordable electronics while continuing to expand its retail network and private-label portfolio. The company expects domestic manufacturing to play a larger role in supporting long-term growth and improving supply-chain resilience.
Addressing shareholders, Nita Ambani unveiled several social infrastructure projects, including a 410-acre university focused on AI and emerging technologies, a world-class medical city in Mumbai, new public gardens along Mumbai’s Coastal Road, and continued efforts to support India’s Olympic aspirations. These initiatives, she said, are aimed at strengthening education, healthcare and community development.
The AGM highlighted Reliance’s strategy of combining technology, manufacturing and sustainability to drive its next phase of growth. While investors welcomed the long-awaited progress on the Jio IPO, the company’s aggressive AI and clean energy investments signalled that Reliance is positioning itself at the centre of India’s digital and industrial transformation in the coming decade.
