Adani Group to invest Rs 1 lakh crore in Andhra Pradesh over next decade: Karan Adani

At the Andhra Pradesh Global Investors Summit in Visakhapatnam, Adani Group Managing Director Karan Adani announced a massive investment commitment that positions the conglomerate as one of the state’s largest long-term partners in growth. ₹1 lakh crore investment planned over the next decade

Karan Adani revealed that the Group will invest ₹1,00,000 crore in Andhra Pradesh over the next ten years. This new investment comes in addition to the ₹40,000 crore already invested across ports, logistics, cement, infrastructure and renewable energy. He emphasised that Andhra Pradesh is not just an investment destination for the Group, but a "launchpad for India’s next decade of transformation."

A major highlight of his address was the announcement of the $15-billion Vizag Tech Park, which the Adani Group is developing in partnership with Google. The project aims to create one of the world’s largest green-powered hyperscale data-centre ecosystems, marking a significant step toward strengthening India’s digital infrastructure and digital sovereignty.

The Adani Group’s existing operations in Andhra Pradesh have already generated more than one lakh direct and indirect jobs. With fresh investments spanning ports, cement, data centres, energy and advanced manufacturing, the Group expects employment creation to grow substantially in the coming years.

High praise for Andhra Pradesh leadership

Karan Adani delivered strong praise for the state’s leadership, calling Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu an "institution and the original CEO of Andhra Pradesh." He credited Naidu’s vision for driving the state’s resurgence and for fostering an investor-friendly environment. He also lauded I.T and Industries Minister Nara Lokesh, describing him as a "new-generation leader—agile, data-driven and deeply humane," and praised his commitment to speed, efficiency and technology-led governance.

The road to a developed India runs through Andhra Pradesh

In his closing remarks, Karan Adani said that as India aims for Viksit Bharat 2047 and Andhra Pradesh for Swarna Andhra 2047, the state will play a pivotal role in the nation’s development journey. Reaffirming the Group’s commitment, he said the Adani conglomerate aims to become the largest investor in Andhra Pradesh’s future, supporting the state’s growth with scale, speed and spirit.
