The Adani Group's investments in infrastructure exceeded Rs 1.5 lakh crore in FY2025-26, representing more than 30% of India's total capital expenditure in the private sector, Gautam Adani, the group chairman, said while outlining the long-term growth strategy of the conglomerate which is all about infrastructure expansion and technology-led transformation.
Key Highlights
- Adani Group invested Rs 1.5 lakh crore, contributing over 30% private capex nationwide.
- Infrastructure and digital intelligence remain central to Adani Group’s long-term growth strategy.
In his address to the group's Annual General Meeting (AGM), Gautam Adani said he was confident that the operating environment would face the challenges of the global economy and increased regulatory focus on the sector, yet FY26 would be a watershed moment for the company. "The investment was an 'extraordinary' effort as the group was confident about India's long-term growth trend and its plans to develop critical national infrastructure", he said.
The two pillars that will take the centrestage for the future growth of the conglomerate are “infrastructure” and “intelligence” according to Gautam Adani. Infrastructure refers to ports, airports, roads, power plants, transmission network, logistics hubs and industrial ecosystems whilst intelligence is about artificial intelligence, data centres, automation and digital platforms. “Infrastructure provides muscle to a nation, and intelligence provides mastery to a nation,” he said.
Expansion Across Energy, Logistics and Digital Infrastructure
The increase in investments continues to grow in various industries. Adani Energy Solutions has increased its transmission order book to Rs 72,000 crore with significant project wins, and Adani Power is implementing a power expansion programme of more than Rs 2 lakh crore with an installed power generation capacity of 45 GW in the next five years. The company has also signed a deal with Bhutan's Druk Green Power Corporation for a joint development of 5,000 MW hydropower.
The conglomerate has made a major strategic decision to become a player in the nuclear energy space with its acquisition of Adani Atomic Energy and plans to generate 10 GW of nuclear power by 2035.

The conglomerate is also stepping up its digital infrastructure investments. It aims to build a 3 GW platform by 2030 in its data centre business and inked a binding deal with Google for a big data centre project in Vishakhapatnam.
The group highlighted the start of operations at the Navi Mumbai International Airport and the launch of the Integrated Terminal at Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport as important milestones in the aviation infrastructure sector.
