THE ECONOMIC TIMES
About this episode

A new share from Reliance sets foot on Dalal Street -- making a special debut, Jio Financial Services comes out of the shadows of the parent company RIL after a much-awaited demerger. But street signs aside, what is Jio Financial Services? What is the business plan? Will the Ambanis gun for booming consumer lending or disrupt the B2B space? Can the financial sector replicate the telecom playbook or is the pricing game no good here?

Host Anupriya Nair talks to The Economic Times' Arijit Barman and Pratik Bhakta to get insights on the lending ambitions of India's most valued conglomerate.
