The Adani Group has announced plans to invest INR 1.5 lakh crore in Gujarat's Kutch region over the next five years, boosting energy, logistics, and industrial development. Speaking at the Vibrant Gujarat Regional Conference, Karan Adani said the investment includes completing the 37 GW Khavda renewable energy project by 2030 and doubling Mundra Port's capacity over the next decade. The move reinforces Kutch's transformation into a key hub for ports, power, and manufacturing. Gujarat's strong industrial base and logistics network continue to attract large-scale investments, driving demand for industrial land, logistics parks, housing, and urban infrastructure. The announcement highlights the state's growing role in India's long-term economic and infrastructure-led growth.
The Adani Group has announced plans to invest INR 1.5 lakh crore in Gujarat's Kutch region over the next five years, strengthening the region's position as a major hub for energy, logistics, and industrial development. The announcement was made by Karan Adani, Managing Director of Adani Ports & SEZ Ltd, at the Vibrant Gujarat Regional Conference for the Kutch and Saurashtra regions held in Rajkot. Advertisement
The conference was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghavi, and senior industry leaders. Addressing the gathering, Adani said the proposed investments are aligned with national priorities such as job creation, industrial growth, sustainability, and long-term economic resilience.
As part of the investment plan, the Adani Group will complete the Khavda renewable energy project and commission its full 37 gigawatt capacity by 2030. In addition, the group plans to double the capacity of Mundra Port over the next 10 years. Mundra Port, located in Kutch, is one of India's largest commercial ports and a key driver of trade, logistics, and industrial activity in the region.
Adani said India continues to show strong economic momentum despite global uncertainty, with growth nearing 8 per cent and a steady expansion of its manufacturing base. He noted that Gujarat plays a critical role in this growth, contributing more than 8 per cent to India's gross domestic product, accounting for 17 per cent of industrial output, and handling nearly 40 per cent of the country's cargo through its ports. The state is also a leader in renewable energy capacity.
Kutch, once considered a remote and difficult region, has emerged as a strategic centre for industry, logistics, and energy. Large-scale investments in ports, power, and industrial infrastructure have driven demand for industrial land, logistics parks, worker housing, and supporting urban development. The region's transformation has made it a key destination for both domestic and global investors.
Adani said Gujarat will continue to remain central to India's long-term development goals as the country moves towards its vision of Viksit Bharat 2047. He added that the group remains committed to partnering with the state in building a self-reliant and globally competitive economy.
The conference also featured remarks from Balkrishan Goenka, Chairman of Welspun World, who said the company's Gujarat operations have grown into the world's leading home textiles manufacturing base. Welspun currently provides direct and indirect employment to around 100,000 people in the state. Its home textile products hold more than 25 per cent market share in the United States and the United Kingdom and are used at global sporting events such as Wimbledon.
Goenka also said Welspun is investing INR 5,000 crore in its pipeline business and expects to become the world's largest pipe manufacturing company by the end of the year.
The announcements at the conference underline Gujarat's continued appeal as a destination for large-scale industrial and infrastructure investments, with significant implications for regional real estate, logistics, and urban growth.
