Gautam Adani announces major investment plans for Madhya Pradesh; Adani Group to generate 1.2 lakh jobs

The Adani Group has big plans for the state of Madhya Pradesh. During the ongoing investment summit in the state, group chairman Gautam Adani announced that the conglomerate will invest ₹1.1 lakh crore in Madhya Pradesh, a move expected to generate over 1.2 lakh jobs by 2030. The announcement was made at the Madhya Pradesh Global Investors Summit (GIS) 2025 in Bhopal today.

As per Adani, this ambitious investment will span multiple sectors, including pumped storage, cement, mining, smart meters, and thermal energy.

"These are not just investments—they are milestones in a shared journey aimed at making Madhya Pradesh a national leader in industrial and economic growth," Adani said during his address.

In addition to these commitments, the conglomerate is in advanced talks with the state government for three major projects: a greenfield smart city, an airport, and a coal gasification facility. These ventures could potentially attract another ₹1 lakh crore in investments, further bolstering the state’s economic development.

Adani’s Expanding Footprint in Madhya Pradesh

Adani highlighted the group’s deepening ties with the state, pointing out that it has already invested ₹50,000 crore across sectors like energy, infrastructure, logistics, manufacturing, and agri-business, creating more than 25,000 jobs so far. "Our journey here is far from over," Adani declared, signalling the group’s long-term commitment to Madhya Pradesh’s development.

Praising the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who inaugurated the summit, Adani credited national initiatives like Make in India, Digital India, and Aatmanirbhar Bharat for transforming India into a self-reliant, innovation-driven economy. “Under PM Modi’s leadership, India has shifted from following global trends to defining them,” Adani said, adding that this transformation has given India newfound global respect and confidence.

Madhya Pradesh: A New Investment Hotspot

Adani also lauded Chief Minister Mohan Yadav’s administration for creating a pro-business environment and enhancing infrastructure development in the state. He pointed out that the state’s projected gross state domestic product (GSDP) is set to surpass ₹15 lakh crore in the 2024–25 financial year, underscoring Madhya Pradesh’s rise as a top destination for investments.

"Leadership isn’t just about building roads and bridges—it’s about creating endless possibilities," Adani remarked, commending the state government’s focus on ease of doing business and infrastructure readiness.
