Guwahati, Feb 25, 2025: Billionaire industrialist and Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani on Tuesday pledged to invest Rs 50,000 crore in the northeastern state of Assam. The announcements from Adani came during the Advantage Assam 2.0 Investment & Infrastructure Summit 2025 in Guwahati, where earlier today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi delievered the inaugural speech.
Addressing the Advantage Assam 2.0 Summit on Tuesday, Adani said the conglomerate will invest Rs 50,000 crore across various sectors in Assam. The investment will span various sectors, such as airports, aerocity, transmission, cement, gas distribution network and road construction projects in Assam.
"It is with great pride that I announce today the Adani Group’s commitment to invest Rs 50,000 crore in Assam. Our investments will span across airports, aerocities, city gas distribution, transmission, cement, and road projects," he said.
" It is a privilege to stand before you today at Advantage Assam 2.0. Every time I set foot in this sacred land of Maa Kamakhya, I am captivated by its natural and limitless beauty.... Assam is on a path to greatness. And at the Adani Group, we 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," Adani said.
The industrialist underlined that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reshaped the landscape of possibilities for Assam.
"Hon'ble Prime Minister, like a master weaver, you are the first leader to have blended the seven sister states into the fabric of our nation. Your Act East Policy and the programs to enhance connectivity and infrastructure are not just initiatives. They are monuments of hope for the entire region. You have not only integrated Assam and its sister states into India’s growth story but laid the path to make them catalysts for our nation’s future as well as boost trade and investment with the Southeast Asian nations.
"Yesterday, I stood in Bhopal listening to you at the Madhya Pradesh Global Investors Summit. And again today, as I stand here at the Advantage Assam 2.0 summit, I cannot help but reflect that it all began in 2003 with Resurgent Gujarat — your vision that evolved into the iconic Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit. What started as spark has now ignited a national movement, inspiring every state to adopt the power of investment-driven economic transformation," he said.

Adani said in the past two decades, these investor summits have far exceeded their original ambitions. They have become catalysts for transformative change, attracting billions of dollars in investments, and foundationally driving the vision of a 'Viksit Bharat'.
