Reliance Industries Ltd plans to restart all of its 1,400 retail fuel pump outlets in the fiscal year ending of March 2016, a report on the company website said.
The stations were closed in 2008 when global oil prices touched the $150 mark for a barrel and the government's subsidy to state fuel retailers knocked privately-owned retailers out of the market.
Over 320 fuel outlets have already been restarted, a presentation on the website said.
Reliance took a significant share away from the state companies in 2006.
The top three state refiners, Indian Oil Corp, Bharat Petroleum Corp and Hindustan Petroleum Corp, between them sell nearly all of the petrol and diesel consumed annually in India.
Reliance Petroleum Limited was set up by Reliance Industries Limited (RIL), one of India's largest private sector companies based in Ahmedabad. Currently, RPL has amalgamated with RIL, and has interests in the downstream oil business. RPL also benefits from a strategic alliance with Chevron India Holdings Pte Limited, Singapore, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chevron Corporation USA (Chevron), which currently holds a 5% equity stake in the Company.
