RIL will hold a 74.9% stake in the joint venture and Sibur will own the rest.

RIL, the country's biggest company by market value, is currently in the midst of doubling its petrochemicals business, spurred by rising demand from consumer goods, automobiles, construction and organised retail sectors in Asia's third-largest economy.
