"And we are the only company with the capacity to smoothly transition our entire 4G customer base to 5G, with minimal additional capital expenditure.

"This business made a strong start by entering several categories through multiple brands and strategic partnerships.

A key pillar of our FMCG business is to make Indian brands contemporary for today's Indian consumers, keeping the age-old brand promise intact," said Isha.

"We have acquired and partnered with several such brands like Campa Cola, and Lotus.

We have launched Campa Cola with the promise of great Indian taste and consumers have embraced it wholeheartedly.

We're scaling it up further in India and have also started work to take it global starting with Asia and then Africa," she added.(With inputs from agencies)WatchMukesh Ambani: 'Reliance Industries has cumulatively invested $150 billion in last 10 years'
