Reliance Anil Ambani Group today said it will infuse fresh equity capital of up to Rs 8,000 crore in Reliance Energy, a move that will help it execute large projects in power and infrastructure sectors.

"The new equity infusion of capital of up to Rs 8,000 crore will propel Reliance Energy into a completely new orbit, facilitating our participation in a large number of forthcoming mega projects," an ADAG statement said here.

The Group said infusion of new equity capital at a premium of 5% to the current market price and the minimum SEBI formula determined price sets a "new trend in corporate governance and transparency".

REL scrip settled at Rs 1,738 at the Bombay Stock Exchange on Friday, November 30.

It also provides a "strong signal to capital markets and the international and domestic investor community on our confidence in the company's future growth prospects", the Group said
