Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani announced that the conglomerate plans to invest up to ₹12 trillion in India over the next six years. The investments will span infrastructure, mining, renewable energy, ports, and other sectors.
“There is huge investment potential. We will invest ₹10 to 12 trillion in India in the next six years,” Adani told PTI. He highlighted that corporate India is aligning with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call for self-reliance, which he described as “India’s new Independence.”
Adani said, “The struggle for achieving self-reliance is on… the Prime Minister has also given a call for this. That is a new Independence. That is what every industrialist and every group is working on.”
Speaking at the centenary celebrations of IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, he outlined that the planned investment will include infrastructure, technology, energy transition, ports, and other initiatives. He added that the group has already grown into one of the world’s fastest-expanding renewable energy companies and is preparing for an expansion scale that matches India’s ambitions for the next decade.
The group is developing the world’s largest renewable energy park at Khavda in Gujarat, covering 520 square km. By 2030, it is expected to generate 30 GW of green energy, enough to power over 60 million homes annually.
Adani also mentioned plans to expand mining and materials operations, including extracting ores and producing metals, alloys, and finished products to support the green transition. When asked about challenges, he said they are “part of the game and part of the journey” and noted that Indian industry now sees itself as a partner in nation-building. He stressed that India’s 21st-century sovereignty will depend on control over its natural resources and energy systems.
During his keynote at IIT ISM, Adani also announced that the group intends to invest over $75 billion in the energy transition over the next five years. He noted that the global green energy transition is becoming the largest industry today, worth several trillion dollars in the coming decades, driving growth in electricity-based manufacturing, green steel, green fertilisers, hydrogen ecosystems, and infrastructure critical to AI and digital economies.
The Adani Group is a diversified conglomerate with 11 publicly listed companies. Gautam Adani, 62, is a first-generation entrepreneur who has grown his group to a market capitalization exceeding $200 billion.
