MUMBAI (Bloomberg): Billionaire Mukesh Ambani is diverting oxygen produced at his refineries to help India battle a savage coronavirus outbreak that’s paralysed the commercial capital as daily new infections spike by a record.
Ambani’s Reliance Industries Ltd., which operates the world’s biggest refining complex in western India, has started supplying oxygen from Jamnagar to Maharashtra at no cost, according to a company official, who asked not to be identified due to internal policy.
The western state will get 100 tonnes of the gas from Reliance, Eknath Shinde, urban development minister, said in a tweet.
