The Adani Group is set to embark on an ambitious growth phase, fueled by a massive investment of $15-20 billion across its diverse business sectors over the next five years. This commitment was announced by Chairman Gautam Adani at the group's Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on June 24, 2025, signaling the conglomerate's strong confidence in the Indian economy and its dedication to nation-building. The group is also aiming for a 100 GW total power capacity by 2030, combining thermal, renewable, and pumped hydro generation facilities.
The planned capital expenditure will span across the Adani Group's extensive infrastructure portfolio, encompassing seaports, airports, renewable energy facilities, data centers, cement production, and utilities. Adani emphasized that these investments are not merely for the group's expansion but are strategic contributions to bolster India's infrastructure development.
A significant portion of the investment will be channeled towards the expansion of the group's green energy initiatives. Adani Green Energy is currently constructing the world's largest renewable energy park at Khavda in Gujarat, with a targeted capacity of 50 GW by 2030. Adani Power has exceeded 100 billion units of generation and aims to achieve 31 GW capacity by 2030. The combined thermal, renewable, and pumped hydro generation facilities are expected to reach 100 GW capacity by 2030. This commitment aligns with India's growing focus on sustainable energy sources and reducing its carbon footprint.
The Adani Group is also making substantial investments in digital infrastructure. These include building energy-efficient, green data centers across the country powered entirely by renewable energy. These data centers will cater to government agencies, private corporations, and tech startups, supporting India's Digital India mission. The group also intends to explore emerging technologies such as AI, blockchain, and quantum computing, positioning India as a leader in technological innovation.
Beyond energy and digital infrastructure, the Adani Group is focused on expanding its presence in other key sectors. Adani Ports achieved a milestone by handling 450 million tonnes of cargo, while the natural resources division produced 47 million tonnes of coal and iron ore, projecting over 30% growth by FY26. In the cement sector, ACC and Ambuja Cements have already achieved 72% of their target to double capacity to 140 million tonnes per annum by FY27-28, crossing the 100 million tonnes milestone.
Adani Energy Solutions, the group's electricity transmission division, is managing smart metering and high-voltage connections, having secured transmission orders worth ₹44,000 crore and implementing smart metering projects valued at ₹13,600 crore. Adani New Industries is developing electrolyzers and manufacturing facilities to produce 10 GW of solar modules in the upcoming financial year.
The group's airport division handled 94 million passengers in FY25 and successfully completed the initial test flight at the newly constructed Navi Mumbai Airport, which is scheduled to commence operations later this year with an initial capacity to accommodate 20 million passengers. Adani Total Gas provides services to 1 million piped natural gas customers and operates 3,400 EV charging stations throughout 22 states.
Gautam Adani also addressed allegations from U.S. authorities regarding an alleged bribery scheme for renewable energy contracts, clarifying that no Adani Group member faces charges under the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) or for conspiracy to obstruct justice. He emphasized the group's commitment to ethical business practices and transparency.
The Adani Group's ambitious investment plan has been well-received by investors, with shares of Adani Group companies surging following the announcement. Adani Ports & SEZ, Adani Green Energy, Adani Enterprises, and Adani Power all experienced gains, reflecting strong investor confidence in the group's future prospects.
