He pursued an MBA from Stanford University in the US. He has been on the Board of Reliance since 1977.

from textiles to polyester fibers and

and going upstream into oil and gas exploration and production.
He created multiple new world-class manufacturing facilities involving diverse technologies that have raised Reliance’s
petrochemicals manufacturing capacities from less than a million tonnes to about 21 million tonnes per year.

(Q1FY20), significantly below the statutory threshold.
One hundred fifty per cent, according to Irdai. Since then, the solvency margin has fallen even more, to
77% in August and 63% in Q2FY20.
