Ambani Vs Ambani: How Have the Brothers Fared Since Their Split?

Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries Ltd sold dollar bonds at the cheapest rate by a non-financial Indian issuer this week. That came days after his younger brother Anil Ambani’s Reliance Communications Ltd defaulted on its bond payments.
It somewhat sums up how the fortunes of the billionaire siblings have diverged since their split in 2006.
As part of the family settlement, the older Ambani got oil refining, exploration and petrochemicals businesses housed under RIL, the owner of the world’s largest refinery in Jamnagar, Gujarat. The faster-growing financial services, infrastructure and telecom businesses went to the younger brother.
More than a decade and a gas dispute later, Mukesh Ambani now also has a large retail business and a data-driven wireless carrier that has triggered a tariff war. Anil Ambani’s businesses haven’t fared that well. Reliance Communications, under pressure due to piling debt and falling profitability, has been among the worst hit.

Debt Comparison

Reliance Industries’ debt more than doubled to Rs 1,96,601 crore in the last five years as it invested in its telecom arm – Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd.

Still, its interest coverage ratio – a measure of a company’s ability to service debt – remains healthy. A ratio of one or more means that the company will cover its cost of debt for the year.

Anil Ambani-led businesses’ debt rose at an unsustainable pace. Reliance Power Ltd's total debt nearly doubled in the last five years. It also rose substantially for Reliance Infrastructure Ltd and Reliance Communications.
While the telecom operator is already struggling to service its debt, the interest coverage ratio has fallen for the other two as well.

Anil Ambani’s group companies have lagged. While Reliance Capital Ltd’s revenue rose at a higher annualised rate of 23.3 percent since the split, profits rose at a compounded annual rate of 4.4 percent.

Reliance Infrastructure’s profit rose at 5.5 percent CAGR, whiles its share price rose a 2.4 percent annualised rate. His telecom business is already making losses with shares hitting an all-time low this month.
Reliance Power was excluded since it wasn’t part of the combined group and was set up by the younger Ambani after the split.

Why Was Africa Called the Dark Continent?

Why Was Africa Called the Dark Continent? Email The most common answer to the question, “Why was Africa called the Dark Continent?” is that Europe did not know much about Africa until the 19 th century, but that answer is misleading. Europeans had known quite a lot, but they began ignoring earlier sources of information. More importantly, the  campaign against slavery  and missionary work in Africa actually intensified Europeans’ racial ideas about African people in the 1800s.   They called Africa the Dark Continent, because of the mysteries and the savagery they expected to find in the “Interior ."
OPINION | Dear Congress, Either Join The Tea Party, Or Lose T-Shirt In Gujarat The BJP understands, as the Congress does not, that tea symbolizes all the fuzzy warmth of Indian culture. It is a great leveller — from the richest to the poorest, everyone drinks tea. Mahatma Gandhi famously took his tea with a pinch of salt. It was 1931, the Salt Satyagraha was a year old and his tea-serving host was the British Viceroy, Lord Irwin. Had the Indian National Congress recalled that little soupcon of history, it would not have put out a meme of a British Prime Minister ordering another Gujarati (PM Narendra Modi) to ‘go sell tea’. The Mahatma was no great votary of tea, but was a master of symbolism. Gently rubbing salt into the Imperial wound, he twinkled, “To remind us of the famous Boston Tea Party”. An exquisite reference to the genesis of American Independence, with the implicit promise of freedom for India. If only today’s Congress understood the power of symbols a tenth as well.
