Share prices of Reliance Industries (RIL) and Reliance Natural Resources (RNRL) have reacted sharply ever since reports of Supreme Court's early verdict on the KG 6 basin gas dispute surfaced. According to marketmen, the apex court may pass judgment in favour of RNRL. The verdict is likely to have some sentimental impact on the stock market, as RIL is an index heavyweight.
Analysts are not expecting a major correction in RIL even if it loses the case whereas RNRL is expected to react sharply.
If RNRL loses the case then it will only concern the company shareholders or bear a negative sentimental impact on ADAG group shares. But if the verdict is against index-heavyweight Reliance Industries, it can have a negative impact on the market. RIL may correct up to 5 per cent and move sideways for next few sessions.
RNRL will turn volatile and move sharply in either direction once the judgment is out. If it wins the case then it may move 25-30 per cent on the upside. But if it loses the case then it will fall more than 50 per cent.
Traders should avoid trading in futures as volatility in the RNRL stock will increase tremendously. Take positions ahead of the verdict.
If RNRL loses the case then there will be fundamental downside for the stock. Speculative traders can buy put options in case they expect the company to lose the case. If they expect RNRL to win the case then buy 70 call option.
RIL and RNRL have been fighting a legal battle over the supply of 28 million units of gas for the next 17 years at $2.34 per unit to RNRL from the gas fields of Krishna-Godavari basin, which had been awarded to Mukesh Ambani's RIL as part of the New Exploration or Licensing Policy (NELP).
In the past one-week, shares of Reliance Industries have fallen around 4 per cent while those of Reliance Natural Resources have galloped around 10 per cent. The shares are witnessing sideways movement ahead of the verdict.
