Reliance's stake sale talks with Aramco stall over price


Reliance Chairman Mukesh Ambani told shareholders on Wednesday it had been delayed due to "unforeseen circumstances in the energy market and the COVID-19 situation".

NEW DELHI/LONDON/DUBAI: Talks over the sale of a 20% stake in Reliance Industries Ltd's oil-to-chemical business to Saudi Aramco have stalled over price, four sources familiar with the matter said.

With the energy market hit by falling demand for crude due to COVID-19, Aramco wants the Indian conglomerate to review the $15 billion it agreed to sell the stake for last year, the sources told Reuters.
