Adani Group plans investment of more than ₹1 lakh crore in West Bengal by 2035

Source: NDTV · 24 Sep 2026, 08:16 UTC

Gautam Adani has announced plans for the Adani Group to invest more than ₹1 lakh crore in West Bengal by 2035. The announcement came during a foundation stone-laying ceremony in New Town, and covers several sectors, according to NDTV.

The Adani Group plans to invest more than ₹1 lakh crore in West Bengal by 2035, Gautam Adani said, according to NDTV. The announcement was made during a foundation stone-laying ceremony for a project in New Town. The supplied material does not identify the project or provide its estimated cost, construction schedule or expected number of jobs.

Adani said the planned investment would be spread across several sectors. No sector-by-sector allocation was provided, and the source material does not specify which businesses or projects will receive the proposed funding. The commitment extends to 2035, but the information supplied does not give interim milestones or explain how much of the investment has already been made.

It also does not state whether the plans depend on regulatory approvals, land acquisition or other conditions. NDTV’s report, as described in the source material, did not include a response from the West Bengal government or details from the foundation ceremony beyond the announcement. The statement is therefore a long-term investment plan attributed to Gautam Adani.

Further information about implementation, financing and the individual projects was not available in the supplied material.
