Buyers return to Reliance
Mumbai: Institutional investors, both foreign as well as domestic, heavily bought the stock of Reliance Industries on Tuesday, a dealer said. He added that one investor that had been selling at the counter over the past few days stopped unloading the stock. According to a market source, investors are expecting a review of estimates of reserves in the gas fields owned by the company off the country's east coast.

Last week the Reliance counter had witnessed heavy selling after the company's partner Niko Resources said its largest gas field off the east coast holds lesser reserves than earlier estimated. It had said the March 2003 estimates were overstated due to an arithmetic error. Niko revised the gas estimates from 9.9 tcf to 8.6 tcf. The market grapevine has it that the estimate may be revised again, this time upwards. The stock ended the day at Rs 467.30 per share, up 2.6 per cent than its previous close on the BSE. The aggregate volume on the BSE and NSE was about 71 lakh shares.
