The Ambani brothers on Saturday reached a settlement to split between themselves, assets of India's largest private sector conglomerate, with over Rs 97,000 crore (Rs 970 billion) in revenues, founded by their late father Dhirubhai.

Following are facts related to interests and performance of companies divided between Mukesh (Reliance Industries Ltd [Get Quote], IPCL [Get Quote] and Anil (Reliance Energy Ltd [Get Quote], Reliance Capital [Get Quote], Reliance Infocomm) in that order.

The company, with net profits of Rs 7,572 crore (Rs 75.72 billion) for the year ended March 31, 2005, operates the world's third largest refinery in a single location, in Gujarat, with a capacity of 660,000 barrels per day.

RIL, in which foreign funds holding is 21.55 per cent, is expanding its petrochemicals capacity to over 14 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) from 12 mtpa in the next few years to become the world's largest producer of polyester yarn and fibre.

It has struck gas in the Krishna Godavari basin and has in place reserves of an estimated 14 trillion cubic feet.

Indian Petrochemicals Company Ltd (IPCL): With net profits of Rs 786 crore (Rs 7.86 billion) in FY 05, IPCL is India's second-largest petrochemicals company, operating a naphtha-based petrochemicals complex and two gas-based complexes.
