ADDITIONAL READING & REFERENCES

[11] To exploit the opportunities which came up with the deregulation
of the oil sector, and to counter the competition from international
players, a high cash flow generating company was required and thus,
the two high cash flow generating entities, RIL and RPL were merged
in early 2002. The merger created significant synergy and led to the
integration of the various businesses.

[12] BSES is India's premier utility company engaged in the
generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. BSES also
provides services in electrical contracting, engineering, procurement
and construction contracts.
