Reliance Retail Ltd is undergoing a significant transformation by shifting its consumer goods business to a newly established entity, Reliance Consumer Products Ltd (RCPL). This strategic move, outlined in a scheme presented to the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), aims to restructure the company's FMCG brands under a new umbrella.
The NCLT's Mumbai bench has directed a meeting to be set for the approval of this internal restructuring process. The restructuring involves transferring Reliance's consumer business as a going concern through a slump sale, a process expected to streamline operations and attract a new set of investors.
The consumer brands sector, a major segment in Reliance's portfolio, demands specialized expertise and substantial capital investment. By housing it within RCPL, Reliance aims to provide focused attention and potentially draw different investors while maintaining the same shareholding pattern as Reliance Retail Ventures Ltd.
