Dhirubhai Ambani and Reliance
After working for eight years in Aden, Dhirubhai decided to come back to
India and start something on his own. On December 31, 1958, he came
back to Mumbai and started the Reliance Commercial Corporation (RCC)
with a borrowed capital of Rs.15,000.
RCC was mainly involved in exporting commodities like ginger,
cardamom, pepper, turmeric, and cashew nut. Using his connections in
Aden, he exported a wide range of commodities to Aden. Aden, being a
free port attracted lot of exports. In the mid 1960s, the Government of
India (GoI) introduced an export promotion scheme under which the
earnings from the export of rayon fabrics could be used for the import of
nylon fiber. This attracted Dhirubhai's attention and he decided to switch
from spices to textiles. In 1966, he set up a spinning mill at Naroda 20
kms from Ahmedabad with borrowed funds of Rs 2,80,000 and registered
it (Reliance Textile Industries) as a power loom unit with a paid up capital
of Rs 150,000...
Another program, the High Unit Value Scheme introduced by the
GoI in 1971 gave tremendous boost to Reliance textiles. The
scheme allowed the import of polyester filament yarn against the
export of nylon fabrics. RCC was benefited the most from this
scheme and its exports constituted more than 60% of exports under
this scheme. There were rumors that the scheme was solely
devised for Dhirubhai.
