The Adani Group has announced a USD 66 billion investment pipeline for Maharashtra, underscoring its long-term bet on India’s infrastructure-led growth and energy transition. The plan was presented at the 56th World Economic Forum (WEF) annual meeting in Davos, positioning the conglomerate as a strategic partner in the state’s next phase of economic expansion.
The proposed investments, to be deployed over the next seven to ten years, span aviation, urban infrastructure, clean energy, digital platforms and advanced manufacturing. The Group said the portfolio reflects a shift from standalone asset creation to building integrated, future-ready ecosystems aligned with national priorities such as manufacturing self-reliance, sustainability and ease of doing business.
Urban transformation projects form a significant part of the plan. A flagship initiative is the redevelopment of Dharavi, one of India’s most complex urban renewal exercises. The project aims to convert Asia’s largest informal settlement into a planned, economically productive urban district, with modern housing, infrastructure and commercial activity.
Another key growth driver is Navi Mumbai, anchored by the Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA). One of India’s largest greenfield airport projects, NMIA commenced operations on December 25 and is expected to significantly expand aviation capacity in the Mumbai metropolitan region. The airport is also seen as a catalyst for allied sectors such as logistics, hospitality, real estate and commercial development.
Beyond transport and urban infrastructure, the investment roadmap includes green, integrated data centre parks with a combined capacity of 3,000 MW, an integrated arena district near the airport, coal gasification facilities, and pumped-storage hydropower projects totalling 8,700 MW. The Group has also proposed semiconductor and display fabrication units, in line with the government’s evolving framework to attract private investment into high-tech manufacturing.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said the state welcomes all investors who contribute to job creation and economic growth. Pranav Adani, Director of Adani Enterprises, highlighted the scale and sectoral diversity of the planned investments, noting the Group’s increasing focus on scale, integration and sustainability.
