Its businesses include energy, petrochemicals, natural gas, retail, entertainment, telecommunications, mass media, and textiles. Reliance is the largest public company in India by market capitalisation[6][7] and revenue,[8] and the 86th largest company worldwide.[9] It is India's largest private tax payer[10] and largest exporter, accounting for 7% of India's total merchandise exports.[11]

The company has attracted controversy for reports of political corruption, cronyism, fraud, financial manipulation, and exploitation of its customers, Indian citizens, and natural resources.[12][13][14][15][16] Its chairman, Mukesh Ambani, has been described as a plutocrat.[17]
