Reliance chairman Mukesh Ambani has said he is committed to make the $16.8-billion conglomerate last for centuries and institutionalise the achievements of his late father.

There are a few companies in the world that have lasted centuries. And I think thats a commitment I have made to him (father), to myself and to everyone at Reliance, he said participating in BBC Worlds face to face programme. Ambani said he would continue with the legacy of his father, making sure that whatever he spent his life on is institutionalised, is my commitment to him, my commitment to Reliance and all our people.

Ambani, who was accompanied by his wife Nita, said the late Dhirubhai was a devoted father and always spent ample time with his four children, including Mukeshs younger brother Anil Ambani.
