Adani Announces Rs 50,000 Crore Investment in Assam
Guwahati (Assam) : The Adani Group today announced a massive Rs 50,000 crore investment in Assam, marking one of the highest-ever investment commitments by a business group to the state. Addressing the Advantage Assam 2.0 Investment & Infrastructure Summit 2025 in Guwahati, Mr Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, said that the investment will span airports, aerocities, city gas distribution, power transmission, cement and road projects, significantly boosting infrastructure development and employment generation in the state.
Mr Adani highlighted Assam’s transformation under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma. “Assam is on a path to greatness, and we at the Adani Group are honoured to walk this path alongside you. This is our commitment, this is our vision, and this is the promise we make today — to you, to Assam and to the future we will build together,” said Mr Adani.
The Adani Group’s investment aligns with Assam’s growing role as a key driver of India’s Act East Policy, enhancing connectivity and trade with Southeast Asian nations. Mr Adani also acknowledged the Chief Minister’s initiatives in social welfare, manufacturing and infrastructure, calling them lifelines of progress and bridges to prosperity.
The Advantage Assam 2.0 Investment Summit 2025 in Guwahati, attended by global investors, policymakers and industry leaders, is a platform focused on unlocking the state’s economic potential through strategic investments in infrastructure, energy and technology. Mr Adani said that the Prime Minister’s initiative to organise the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit two decades ago had ignited a national movement, inspiring every state to adopt the power of investment-driven economic transformation.
At the Advantage Assam 2025 summit, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi unveiled the ‘Bamboo Orchids’ design of the New Integrated Terminal Building (NITB) of Guwahati’s Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International (LGBI) Airport. Inspired by Assam’s natural beauty, the design symbolises biodiversity, strength and sustainability.
Currently under construction, the NITB will manage 13.1 million passengers per annum (MPPA), making it the first airport terminal of its kind in the northeast region of India. It is expected to be operational in the last quarter of 2025.
