Currently, the group has investments of close to Rs 275 billion in sectors such as power generation and transmission, gas distribution, cement manufacturing and agro processing, among others, in the state.

He said that sectors and projects that the group plans to invest in include four-laning of a part of NH-47, a gas link project and a micro-irrigation system.

It plans to set up mega food parks and six multi-modal logistics parks in Dhar, Guna, Damoh, Ujjain and two in Indore. The multi-modal parks will be set up with an investment of Rs 52.50 billion, Adani said.

He further added that as the second-largest cement manufacturer in the country now, the group only has a manufacturing plant in Katni district. It is planning to set up three more plants in Ametha, Dewas and Bhopal.

“The total investment in the three plants will be around Rs 35 billion. This will almost triple cement manufacturing in the state to 7.5 million tonne per annum (MTPA),” Adani said.

He said that the Adani Group will invest close to Rs 390 billion on renewable energy. It will set up a major pump storage hydro project with an investment of Rs 150 billion.
