RIL shares closed at Rs 1,542.45 apiece on the BSE.
The company said that the Rights Issue Committee of the Board of Directors of the company will meet on or about June 10 to approve the basis of allotment of equity shares.

Mukesh Ambani, chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries, said the issue is a new and proud landmark in the history of India's capital market. He said, "Since the time of Dhirubhai Ambani, the Founder of Reliance Industries Limited, our shareholders have always been our biggest source of strength. Our decades old relationship based on trust has consistently spurred us to achieve more. We are delighted and humbled by their extraordinary show of confidence in the future of Reliance."
