Jio Platforms, a Reliance Industries subsidiary, has reported a strong financial performance for the December quarter of FY26. The company's net profit saw an 11.2% year-on-year increase, reaching ₹7,629 crore.

The company's telecom arm, Reliance Jio Infocomm, experienced a significant boost from its 5G services, with its 5G subscriber base growing to 253 million users by the end of the quarter.
