Jio Financials - New kid of Reliance in a large Financial Space

So, Now that this will be part of Nifty. I think this should have its own Thread.
I think the developments happening in this company is worth the discussion here.

  • Jio BlackRock Broking Unit Established: Jio Financial Services’ joint venture with BlackRock, named Jio BlackRock Investment Advisors, has incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary called Jio BlackRock Broking Pvt. Ltd. on January 20, 2025.
  • Broking Business Expansion: This new entity, Jio BlackRock Broking, is set to undertake stock broking services, pending regulatory approvals.

  • Capital Infusion in JV: Jio Financial Services and BlackRock have each made an initial investment of ₹3 crore into their joint venture, Jio BlackRock Investment Advisers Private Limited, which was incorporated in September 2024.
  • Local Debt Market Foray Planned: Jio Finance Ltd. (a subsidiary of Jio Financial Services) is planning to enter the local currency debt market for the first time. They are in discussions with lenders and may issue loans or bonds as early as the January-March 2025 quarter.

lease read forum guidelines properly before initiating a thread.
https://forum.valuepickr.com/faq

To nurture a vibrant community ValuePickr does not restrict anyone from starting a thread on a stock of his/her choice. Only Caveat is if you are going to introduce a discussion on a stock, we expect you to do your homework and start the thread with some basic info-set, and 1st level analysis such as growth drivers, a few positives & negatives, immediate triggers if any, and enumerate some RISKS. Nothing very heavy is required, but enough to set the tone for 2nd level of discussions.

Thread initiators are usually alerted to edit their post, and make necessary changes before thread is opened up again. So you/colleague and look to edit the post in order to meet prescribed guidelines. We have the responsibility - especially the thread initiator (assumption is he/she is a savvy investor) - to cater to bringing everyone on same page - quickly - if you know what we mean.
