Adani Group to invest Rs 1.5 Lakh crore in Kutch over 5 Years: Karan Adani

RAJKOT : The Adani Group will invest Rs 1.5 lakh crore in Gujarat’s Kutch region over the next five years, underlining its long-term commitment to the state, Adani Ports and SEZ Limited Managing Director Karan Adani said at Vibrant Gujarat Regional Conference for Kutch and Saurashtra Region in Rajkot on Sunday. The investments reflect India’s message to the world that economic growth, climate responsibility and energy security can move forward together, Karan Adani said.

In his remarks at VGRC in Rajkot, attended by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, he said Gujarat is not just a state of investment for the Adani Group, but the very foundation of its journey.

“Our Chairman, Gautam Adani, has always believed that the growth of our group must be inseparable from the growth of the nation,” Karan Adani stated.

The address by Shri Karan Adani, MD, Adani Ports and SEZ underscored Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s transformative leadership, which has reshaped India’s scale and mindset. He noted that Shri Modi taught the nation to think long term, build institutions, and view development as a civilizational mission where vision is matched by execution. Under Shri Modi, Gujarat has become one of India’s most industrially advanced and globally connected states, contributing significantly to GDP, industrial output, cargo handling, and renewable energy. Shri Adani recalled that as Chief Minister, Shri Modi proved that good governance and speed of execution could transform a state, long before “ease of doing business” became a national concept. As Prime Minister, he has extended this philosophy across India, making states engines of growth through cooperative and competitive federalism, ensuring policy stability, and building infrastructure at scale. He emphasized that India, under Modi’s leadership, has emerged as a bright spot in a fragmented global economy, growing close to 8%, expanding its manufacturing base, and progressing confidently towards becoming a $5 trillion economy and the world’s third largest. Shri Adani cited Kutch and Mundra as powerful examples, with projects like the 37 GW Khavda renewable energy park. He announced ₹1.5 lakh crore over the next five years in Kutch, aligning with national priorities of employment generation, industrial competitiveness, sustainability, and resilience, affirming Gujarat’s role in India’s journey towards Viksit Bharat 2047.
