The outcome of a long-running gas dispute with Reliance Natural, led by Mukesh's younger brother Anil, will also have a bearing on the company's outlook.
Reliance is unable to hit peak gas production of 80 million standard cubic metres a day (mmscmd) at its D6 block in the vast Krishna Godavari basin in the Bay of Bengal due to customers not buying allocated volumes, and a lack of pipelines.
But analysts say current production of 60 mmscmd is still enough to boost results. Reliance began pumping gas from the block in April last year.
Shares in Reliance, India's biggest listed firm with a market value of about $78 billion, have dropped 8 per cent in the past two weeks, while the broader Mumbai market is down 2.6 per cent.
